The thing I like the most about Kasia is she is a very original beauty. I have not really seen anyone who looks like her. You may find models with similar features like her amazing jawline and cheekbones, but her look is so original. She truly is stunning and has the ability to give so many looks in her photos.

The photo shoot that I first noticed Kasia was the October 2009 issue of Harper's Bazaar. It was a really simple shoot, but it really stuck in my head and that’s how I knew she was a really good model. For like a week after a I saw those pictures I just could not get them out of my head, and I think that is something that’s really good about Kasia, she is able to engage you with even the simplest of shots.

The thing I love the most about Sasha are her cheekbones they are so amazing. She looks like a really beautiful alien, her face is so beautifully proportioned, when she is looking straight at you its almost like her cheekbones lead down into beautiful eyes and lips. I don't know if I explained that well but I hope you understand what I mean. She is a really gorgeous girl.

I have been seeing Sasha around for so long but I really took notice of her again when I saw Numero September 2010 issue. The pictures of Sasha in this magazine were so crazy beautiful, and you see her powerful cheekbones and alien like face and those are the things I love about her. She blew me away in this photo shoot and this is why I love models so much because an actress can take a cute picture but models always bring something extra special to a photo shoot and draw you into the pictures and that is something Sasha does so well.

The thing I love the most about Daphne are her lips and her ability to transform. She looks different In every picture I see of her, and she brings something new to every shoot, we never see the same expression from her and she has the ability to take the most gorgeous photos that make you stop and stare.

(i-D Magazine March 2012: Richard Bush - Photographer, Sarah Richardson - Fashion Editor/Stylist)

I first really took notice of Daphne when I saw the Numero June/ July 2011 cover & editorial. I was blow away, the editorial which was called 'Wild Thing' had a tribal fashion theme & there was wild hair & an excessive amount of accessories, but the thing that really got to me was, through all of those things Daphne stood out & not only did she stand out, but she made me want to buy everything in that editorial, and I love it when a model is able to do that because they are securing more jobs for themselves while pleasing the client. I loved this editorial so much that I had to post almost all the pictures. The first two are my favourite pictures.
