Move It Shake It Work It Feel It

2011 has been a massive year for showcasing new models. We've watched careers being made, personalities soar and have seen some amazing editorials in result. Models such as Arizona Muse, Daphne Groeneveld, Lindsey Wixon and Julia Saner have been the ones to watch, securing numerous campaigns, editorials and catwalk shows between them.

So who will take their place in the coming year as the ones to watch??

Magda Laguinge (NEXT) is an Argentinean born model who has walked for Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Chloe, Marc Jacobs and Balenciaga to name a few. She also featured in Renzo Rainero's A/W fashion film.

Lara Mullen (Premier) was accidentally discovered but despite being just 17 years old, the British model has already appeared in Alexander Wang, Prada, Vera Wang, Jonathan Saunders, Topshop Unique and Acne shows.

Chrystal Copland (Fusion Models) was discovered at 14 while shopping with her mum in native Australia. She opened the Louis Vuitton SpringSummer 2012 show and has also walked for designers including Anne Valerie Hash, Antonia Marras and Giles.

Katryn Kruger (IMG) is a South African born beauty who was a Givenchy exclusive, appeared in Calvin Klein Spring 2012 presentation, has featured in Prada Resort 2012 campaign and is currently on the cover of South African Elle for January 2012.

Marni for H&M

It's doubtful, but in case you haven't heard, MARNI will be the next label to collaborate with Swedish high-street brand H&M. The Italian label's founder Consuelo Castiglioni has designed a spring collection which will be coming to a store near you on March 8 2012. Alternatively, if your scavenging skills consist of fast fingers and a quick reach for the mouse you can also purchase pieces from the collection online. Our tips for getting what you want is do your research first; when the day comes make sure you know what you want and plan how you're going to beat everyone else to it, whether that be camping out early or just employing some good old-fashioned elbow attacks and sprinting skills.

The range will feature famous Marni elements such as vivid colours, all over prints, clashing patterns and graphic accessories. Highlights from the womenswear collection include full pleated skirts, dresses, cropped trousers and jacquard knits, in an array of prints and fabrics including silk and crisp cotton.

 "I wanted to create a true Marni wardrobe by revisiting all our favourite pieces in signature fabrics and prints," Castiglioni said. "As always, I love juxtaposing prints and colours, mixing modern tribal with Bauhaus graphic and adding sporty utilitarian elements."

Get Waisted

After weeks of hard labour in the workshops our garments are complete. Tasked with designing an outfit comprising of a pair of jeans and a fashion forward top (for brands GStar/Dsquared/NudieJeans) we showed our finished garments to a small audience with our models walking to Justice.

easy-cool.
