Ming Xi Making A Spash at London Fashion Week, Fall 2010

I was alerted to another new Asian model who is making a huge splash at London Fashion Week this season and she is Ming Xi, the 1st runner-up of 2009 Elite Look competition. It would be interesting to see how she does in Milan and Paris in the upcoming weeks.

It is also interesting that London Fashion Week is the place where these new Asian girls are creating a name for themselves. First off, London Fashion Week has always been the distant stepsister of Paris, Milan and New York, and the magazines there have rarely used Asian models. But suddenly, London is beginning to look like a major players.

Sun FeiFei Making A Splash at London Fashion Week

The new Asian face to watch out for in Europe this season is Sun FeiFei from Elite London. She just walked for Christopher Kane at the London Fashion Week and according to Laila Lu of Rock the Trend, there is a possibility that she may walk for Prada next week because both designers use the same casting director.
