Throughout the week, Modelinia has been sifting through stacks of the top modeling agencies’ Fashion Week show packages in preparation for the New York shows. Like baseball cards for the fashion types — except much cooler and much more artsy— these impeccably styled show cards are an early preview of all the top models that will hit the Fashion Week runways starting next week. After spending a few days now flipping through the cards and trading them like collectors items around the office, we finally pulled ourselves together long enough to compose a list of the top girls expected to strut their model stuff this season. Based on the amazing Fall campaigns that we’ve been rounding all summer, and the impressive showing these girls have had in the past few seasons, we’ve finally nailed down our list— as painstakingly difficult as that was— to the top 20 girls to watch at New York Fashion Week! See all of the runway vets and shining catwalk stars in the list below, and stay tuned for even more exclusive Fashion Week coverage in the coming weeks!
