New Faces: Yana, Tasha and Bonnie
A native of the Ukrainian city of Uman, Yana Godnya began her career in the fashion world when, following her friend, she came to a local modeling agency. First, she was preparing to participate in the contest "Miss Ukraine - 2009", but soon she signed a contract with the Paris branch of the Elite agency and left the country. Yana later attached herself to the Elite Milan office and to the Supreme agency.
Jana prefers rock music: in her list of her favorite bands Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Muse. In her free time, she swims, loves spending time with friends and traveling, dreams of visiting Sydney, Kenya and India. Like most novice models, Yana is committed to self-improvement and hopes to make a successful career.
A year ago, Jana took part in the next casting. Ahead of a hundred pretenders, Godny became the main character of a film about a modeling career that was not yet released - Up Close. Now in her portfolio you can find only a lot of test shots and shooting for Marie Claire magazine, but most resources and blogs about models predict her success.
Tasha Franken was born in Andalusia, on the southern coast of Spain. It is worth noting that the girl has features that are not typical of most models. For example, by his eighteen, Franken was fluent in four languages: Spanish, Norwegian, Dutch, and English.
Although Tasha never thought about a model's career, the fashion world has always attracted her: the girl followed the industry novelties closely and even kept her own fashion blog. This spring, Franken entered the University of Manchester in the department of design management and marketing. However, in the summer, she was discovered by an Elite agency scout, and Tashi’s plans changed. After filming in the Gap book and participating in the show of the spring-summer collection of Vivienne Westwood Red Label, Franken joined Ford.
Tasha is fond of painting, cooking and playing sports. Users of various forums are counting on the appearance of a model at the shows of the FW 2011 season.
By the time the Chinese woman Bonnie Chen signed her first contract with the New York office of the Next agency, she had already graduated from the psychology department of the University of Pennsylvania. Bonnie was also the national champion in gymnastics and the finalist of the model contest Elite Model Look.
For the first time, Bonnie went to the show of little-known brands of the FW 2010 season. And during the last weeks of fashion, the girl was noticed at the shows of Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton. Bonnie has repeatedly appeared on the pages of Vogue, shot for the September issue of Interview and the cover of Marie Claire. Due to the unusual appearance of Chen, she was invited to participate in the Benetton advertising campaign.
Recently, Bonnie, located under the wing of Next in London and New York, created her website.
