Barbara is a really beautiful model, her face is gorgeous. The thing I love the most about this model is defiantly her face. She is best known for and eyes and her pout and every time I see a picture of her that is what I am immediately drawn to.

Barbara is another one of those models that just popped up but she is amazing and all her pictures are stunning. One of her more memorable shoots was for September 2011 issue of French ELLE. Simply beautiful.

The thing I love the most about Juliana is what a unique beauty she is. She is of mixed Japanese and Portuguese descent and I have never seen anyone who looks like her before. You can see the Portuguese in her but sometimes she looks completely Japanese and I think this adds to her beauty because she is able to appeal to a wide variety of people. She has beautiful eyes and amazing lips, she is just gorgeous.

The first time I really took notice of Juliana was when I saw June 2008 issue of US Marie Claire. I really loved the pictures and it was so rare to see Asian models especially Asian models that look like Juliana. These pictures are the kind of pictures you look at and cannot really believe how beautiful they are. Her face was perfect and the styling just tied everything together nicely.

The thing I love the most about Natalia are her eyes and lips, that's what I always notice first when I see pictures of her. She is such a great model that she has the ability to transform in every picture, so the way that I am able to recognize her most of the time is because of her eyes and lips.
(Vogue China - June 2011: Peter Lindbergh - Photographer, Nicoletta Santoro - Fashion Editor/Stylist)

The first time I really took notice of Natalia was when I saw the Russian Vogue September 2010 issue. This was not the first time I had seen Natalia, but the pictures were so beautiful that it put her in the list of my top ten models. I could not find one thing that I did not like about the pictures and I wanted everything she was wearing from the clothes to the accessories. I love this shoot.
