If I remember rightly, as a young kid, I wasn’t a fan of Cindy Crawford. I think I didn’t like her mole. And I just didn’t really get her, I was more drawn to Christy […]
With a name like Lily Nova, she was destined to be a star of some variety… Eflin and impish, with a delicate shock of strawberry blonde hair, Australian Lily is doll-like but with an edgy […]
She’s so fresh. And relatable, and funny. And this all comes through in her face: Dilone, the tomboy Victoria’s Secret model. She’s got a really…I can’t think of a clever word – the best I […]
I can’t believe I haven’t written about Danielle before! She’s a total MTF fave. One of my favourite things to do in life is to stalk Danielle’s Instagram. In a glamourous life sense, Danielle is […]
How many male supermodels can you name? I can name my mates over the years, but chances are you’ll find it hard to place their faces, too. We can all name celebs who also model, […]
I was first struck by Marie-Sophie’s face when I saw her in a group shot with MTF interviewee, Jayne Windsor. It was a Lindbergh picture and I just found Marie-Sophie’s face so bold, strong angular […]
I just love Lauren Hutton’s face! Can you believe that in her early modelling days, Lauren would wear morticians’ wax to cover up the gap in her teeth, but it would often fall out when […]
Tyra Banks: a household name thanks to America’s Next Top Model, is this week’s #ModelCrushMonday. Before hosting (and producing) the hit show, Tyra modelled in an era that, if I could model in any era, […]
Delphi McNicol has been at my agency, Bookings, for a while now and I have been watching her career develop with interest. Pic by Cezar B I knew right away that she had huge potential. […]
Winne Harlow is this week’s #ModelCrushMonday because, not only is she helping re-shape the way society frames beauty, she also wants to save the bees. I saw the America’s Next Top Model cycle that Winnie […]
Fat Face have a habit of booking really great models, hence my last #ModelCrushMonday was Chris Doe and this week’s is a fellow Fat Face model, Lulu Stone. Lulu’s name preceded her. Whenever her name […]
This is Ademide Yetunde Ikuomola, or Mide as she’s called on the Storm Models site. She has a face that just grabs you! And I’m not the only one – with only 20 posts on […]
A couple of weeks ago, my #ModelCrushMonday was the absolutely gorgeous, invigorating, effervescent Pat Cleveland, muse and supermodel of the 70’s and even through to today. Well through researching her, I found many photos and […]
Marina Dias is today’s #ModelCrushMonday because I remember working with her when I was a new face and thinking she was the ultimate, coolest girl in the WORLD! We were at Select together and she’d […]
Pat Cleveland. Wow! And that is why she is today’s #ModelCrushMonday. Pat has modelled throughout the decades, but especially throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s (making a recent return with her daughter, Anna Cleveland). When […]
I will admit: Julia Campbell Gillies from Storm Models started out as my #ModelCrushMonday because I fell in love with her face. She looks like the best bits of every decade. There’s a bit of […]
This week’s #ModelCrush Monday is a Versace model and a potter. Need I say more? Ryan Barrett has the kind of sculpted bod and chiseled face to win all the big campaigns, but with enough […]
I saw this week’s #ModelCrushMonday on my ex-booker, Billy’s Instagram Story. Well I say I saw this model: I firstly saw her legs. In my line of work you get used to the sight of […]
I love today’s #ModelCrushMonday. Though her bright red, cropped hair has certainly made her one to watch, she’s more than just the hair. Every now and then a model comes along and causes a big […]
Stephanie Boote no longer models, but she’s mine and many other people’s #ModelCrushMonday because of her spirit and humour. Steph was scouted by the owners of Select at the grand old age of 21, working […]
Let’s just say I’ve heard more horror stories than delightful stories about today’s #ModelCrushMonday. But firstly, those horror stories are often delightfully horrific, and also….This face: I know she’s a diva, she keeps people waiting, […]
Peggy Moffitt has one of the faces of the 60s: angular, doll-like, mould-breaking and pretty trippy with all that make up too! She certainly didn’t have the classic beauty of her peers such as Jean […]
Watch out Lucky Blue! There’s another razor-cheekboned, square-jawed, blue-eyed, tousle-haired male model out there about to steal your crown! I don’t know a huge amount about this male model other than he’s at IMG and […]
There was no #ModelCrushMonday last week because I was helping my friend as she had her first night home from the hospital after giving birth…And I think today’s #MCM would understand, as he’s a new […]
I first met Jess about 5 years ago in Brighton for a bridal shoot. She was the bride and I was the slutty bridesmaid. Where Jess was put in pure white gowns, I was put […]
I’m going to be honest. Today’s #ModelCrushMonday might not be saving the oceans, or putting out political messages, or adopting staffies from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home. I just really, really like her face. And […]
Emily Vickers-Willis is my #ModelCrushMonday because I’m seeing her tomorrow and I’m hoping she buys me a sandwich. Jokes! She’s my #ModelCrushMonday because not only is she one of the hardest working models I know, […]
Today’s #ModelCrushMonday is Jen Dawson because, well, look at her… Jen is hilarious, with an enormously dirty (and slightly puerile) sense of humour that is is a splendid contrast to her knockout body and face. […]
I think today’s #ModelCrushMonday has one of my favourite faces of all time. It’s just everything all at once: naturally sensual, angular without being harsh, friendly but with something held back, exotic but hard to […]
Look at that face! Today’s #ModelCrushMonday is Poppy Okotcha, who has a gorgeous doll face with a constant smile playing on it. She’s walked for the likes of Westwood and been the face of G-Star […]
I hope I can do today’s #ModelCrushMonday justice! It’s Bethann Hardison, a former model and model agency owner who has pushed the frontiers of diversity in fashion and modelling. Bethann was scouted by a designer […]
Well, I feel a little put-out to be sharing my surname with a very exciting up-and-coming New Face, but just look at that face… The fashion world has certainly sat up and noticed Liv – […]
Hannah Gillespie is this week’s #ModelCrushMonday because, on a rather vain level, she reminds me of a young, New-Faced-Modeltypeface! Obviously there’s some similarities with the fringe and the strong jaw, but there’s also more than […]
Have you heard of Gemma Sanderson? If you haven’t HEARD of her, I’m willing to bet an extremely weak British Pound that you’ve SEEN her. Gemma has basically done EVERY e commerce job going, including a […]
Joe Moreline is my bestest modelling buddy. He’s hilarious, kind funny, loyal and even though we see each other once a year (sometimes less) there’s no less love lost between us. Fascinating fact: for many […]
Today’s #ModelCrushMonday emanates a glow from within. It’s Braina Laviena, who started out as Kanye’s PA and got promoted to being his muse, his model… …And is now working in her own right! As a […]
Oh My God. She is just beautiful. I remember reading something by Charlie Brooker about how he played a game when watching Billie Piper on Dr Who called ‘what part of her face is biggest?’ […]
Wow! What an incredibly-faced #ModelCrush Monday I’m celebrating today! Half Japanese and Half Mexican, Issa was scouted whilst waiting tables in her father’s sushi restaurant at the age of 14 – being punished for getting […]
When Maddie Moore walks into a room, you know about it. She’s got a huge amount of energy, but it’s all very warm, very open and very natural. It’s not in anyway attention seeking or […]
Today’s #ModelCrushMonday was my other co-model in the Littlewoods commercial I did last year, Lazara Storm. I’ve already sung the praises of Tessa, and now it’s the turn of Lazara. Those casting directors really knew […]
Leanne Maskell is today’s #ModelCrushMonday because she goes against pretty much every preconception of models going. Being both a model and blonde, Leanne probably comes up against a fair few cliched jokes about being dumb […]
Ooooh what an exciting #ModelCrushMonday. This model crackles with energy and plans and intelligence and coconut oil – but is somehow not annoying/envy-inducing but inspiring and energizing. Best of all, this girl is utterly uncategorisable […]
Carmen Dell’Orefice is my #ModelCrushMonday because her bewitching face has led to the longest modelling career ever. When I say long, I mean long. She started, aged 15 – and is now facing campaigns aged […]
Rosalind Jana is my #ModelCrushMonday because she is principled, passionate and fiercely intelligent…all of this going on beneath a wild, fuzzy halo of hair, porcelain skin and a face that wouldn’t look amiss in a […]
Sluggish? Full up? Eying the Celebrations from 11am? If, like me, you’ve slightly regressed to the state of a baby over the festive period, then let me wake you up with THIS FACE! Maria Carla, […]
Omahyra Mota is my #ModelCrushMonday because she is sexy and terrifying. I think there’s an element of jealousy mingled with the admiration. She is pretty much the polar opposite to me. In contrast to her, […]
Lily Osborne is my #ModelCrushMonday because I’ve known her since she was 14 and, while she’s now a ridiculously pneumatic, beautiful woman, she’s still got the same kind heart and aura as she did when […]
I actually developed my #ModelCrushMonday on Tessa within about 5 minutes of meeting her – but since following her on social media, it’s getting stronger. Tess is down-to-earth, intelligent and wickedly funny. I was delighted to […]
Katie Piper is my #ModelCrushMonday as she is beautiful because of what has happened to her – not despite. Many of my readers are models, so just picture this. It’s a normal sort of day. You’ve got […]
Gigi Hadid is my #ModelCrushMonday because she’s so bloody sexy! A lot of models you see in magazines and campaigns are young and understandably awkward, bearing in mind their age and the fact that they’ve been […]
An Oost this week’s #ModelCrushMonday because of her wonderful, singular face, and because it made such a huge impact on me when I first beheld it. So, let me set the scene: my second ever […]
Hello! A very special #ModelCrushMonday today: my friend Caroline Albertelli. I’ll cut to the chase: she’s my crush because she is HILARIOUS! When people get a mental image of a model in their brain: designer-clad, […]
Well firstly Iekeliene is my #ModelCrushMonday for having such an incredible name! I remember when she first started, and I’d see her on castings and on the same shoots as me. I thought she had […]
Honestly, before I started to research this post, I didn’t even know Natalie’s name. I just wanted to find ‘the girl in the Miu Miu adverts with the incredible face.’ It takes a lot for […]
The first time I saw Penelope Tree’s face, I fell in love with it. Bearing in mind how many models with an ‘alien’ look we have nowadays, it’s pretty incredible that 60s model Penelope still […]
David Yang is my #MODELCRUSHMONDAY because he has a totally refreshing look, and I think he’s gonna be MEGA. I saw his picture during the #whomadeyourclothes trend started by Fashion Revolution, and was impressed by his […]
