Devi Kroell's Moving Display

We always feel for models during presentations. It’s one thing to be on display as you’re walking down a runway, but to remain still and on display for at least an hour while people snap photos of you and walk around inspecting your clothing can be a bit nerve-wracking. Thankfully the models at the Devi Kroell collection didn’t have to stand painfully in one place. Instead they were placed in their spots in the center of a stage and each took turns walking around its perimeter. Some models even entertained themselves: Shu Pei Qin couldn’t help but flick the back of Hanna Paat’s trench coat for inspection and Gracie Carvalho fought back a yawn, while Myf Shepherd remained stoic and expressionless the entire time. Our biggest surprise, though, was seeing runway and editorial veteran Teresa Lourenco (of Victoria’s Secret and Sports Illustrated fame) among the models. Welcome back, Teresa! Perhaps this is the year of the comeback… ~ Alia Mansoori
