Ten Sexy Up and Coming Models for Spring-Summer 2011

Valerie Van der Graff 

The Ten Top Models on Benjamin Kanarek Blog was a huge success and we felt that it would be a worthy addendum to list Ten Sexy Up and Coming Models for Spring-Summer 2011. The choices out there were numerous and as a result choosing ten girls from the massive choices available was not an easy task. In fact we could have easily chosen ten girls from every major country in the world and still have come across as being credible.

Our choices came from all of the major model agencies around the world. These models are quite new on the scene and from  Model Agencies that have either added them recently to their Main Boards, or have come from their New Faces Development Department. Our decision is purely subjective and is based on our own personal bias. What is really nice for a change is that these models actually look like women, with breasts a defined waste line and womanly hips, unlike some of the more androgynous anorexic looking models out there. I find this to be a very refreshing change back to the future of the Super Models of the 90’s and the new generation of Laetitia Casta and Lara Stone looking models.
