Julie Syenaeve's back!

How happy are we?? Ecstatic!
How pretty is she?? Stunning! Check it on her web book...

And Now A Strike!

Celine Prins bowls great in that new video clip from the new Dutch pop sensation; Valerius. Beauties meet ze guys on a bowling alley. It's fun! See the clip;

Now, Strike A PAUSE

It's August... I's warm and sunny... and usually very slow in Belgium! Yeah, probably the best time to make a break from posting onto our blog.
Let's our beloved web diva-ah-ah [a.k.a Ariane van der Veen] have a two weeks vacation totally disconnected from any kind of access to the internet. We even wonder if she's going to survive to this ordeal... Sounds very 'Mission Impossible' to us... Well, you'll find out on August the 17th... Stay tuned!
Note; as a matter of fact, Ariane never came back! We wish her good luck!

Cyril For Scapa

Good to see Cyril L'kaderi on last Scapa's campaign!

Inge Forever

Inge Geurts simply looks amazing in Gael Magazine's special file: "Style Icons". We like it so much, we even made our own cover [big super extra thanks to Ercan!!].
We call that THE perfect casting.

We miss Elise!

Here is a short vid from her on one of her many shootings with Patrick Demarchelier. Hope to see her soon in Belgium!



And here is the picture they were shooting together:

Miss Hanne & Miss Oni

... sitting together on an opened pick-up trunk, enjoying their ride in The Hamptons. We'll call that 'Weekend Bucolic Chic' and, of course, we like a lot!

Bucolic Chic or not, have a good one...

Alexandra & Her Diploma

We won't say it enough! The best way to tackle a modelling career is only after you've a high school diploma in your pocket! That's exactly what Alexandra Hoste did!
We know her for a long time now but never distracted her from finishing school and there she is, incredibly pretty and graduate! Congrats Miss! & congrats to Ercan for shooting that nice portrait! We like a lot!

En Vogue In The Wood

Well, this is only possible in Brussels, in the heart of the coolest green spot in town; Le Bois de La Cambre ("Camber Wood") . It's Urban and Nature, yet another new trendy concept from Carl De Moncharline and Serge Vanderheyden; surely the new place/club/restaurant to be in Brussels. We'll go & hang out there and keep you guys posted, for sure.

Pre-opening tomorow July 23.
Already, the website looks cool: www.thewood.be

( More info on Wood's Facebook group)

Strike The Pose

The agency is closed today and tomorrow, July 21st for Belgium's National Day. So... Don't just stand there, let's get to it, strike a pose, there's nothing to it... We'll be back on Wednesday to vogue, vogue, vogue, vogue !-)

Michele's Back Too!

Talking about Classics, we're glad to represent Michele (formely known as Vanessa) Bouman.


We know her since she's sixteen. She was chosen to represent Belgium at the Supermodel Of The World 1987 contest. Here is her presentation:

The 80's lovers should really click HERE to get to the full video: BIG makeup-BIG hair-BIG shoulders pads wonders guaranteed!

Twiggy's Back!

Good to see her back for another Olay campaign! She's about to turn 60, so beautiful and such an icon. When she began modelling, back in 1966, she was told for sure that a career was very short! That is what we kept on telling to the girls until the mid-90's...

Since we have opened a Classic Department! It's so cool to work with models we know since they were teenagers, such as Laurence VH, Steevie or Sylvie Van Marcke!

Do you like...

... Pepa's summer look??

For those who do not know who worldwide famous Pepa is, here is a short report about her.

Making Of By Lalo Gonzalez

Boy! We've missed that one! Lalo Gonzalez made a making of of his own shooting for Garcia Jeans! Celine Prins and Jonathan Kubben were the happy models booked. We just love making of's...

Fierce As Lacroix

Yes again, Hanne Gaby Odiele was the first face of Christian Lacroix's latest show. Let's just hope that it is not Lacroix's very last show as the Couture House is into receivership since mid-June . Christian-The-Fierce was strong enough to put up this show. As he said himself*: "This show is not a funeral, it is a fightback".

Sales Craziness Remedy

We, the most evolved and intelligent living beings, are capable of buying shoes that actually are too small for a 30% discount on the price tag?!! Yes... And we are clever enough to know that no monkey would do such a stupid thing... And there we are, proud owner of those gorgeous pumps to die for and/or from the self-inflicted pain of wearing them... Well, there is hope! Good tip in this video;

Aloha

Let's welcome our first blog rider from Hawaii!!! On the map, he or she looks lost and alone right in the middle of North Pacific ocean. If only we could zoom in on your heavenly islands, we are so sure we'd find out he or she does tons of interesting stuff... Thanks for reading us!

Hey Mickey!

Here is a reportage of our friends from Fashion TV. It's all about Jeremy Scott last collection presentation. We like it for three reasons:
- It's always good to see shots of Paris, it's such a pretty photogenic city
- We always liked Jeremy Scott's designs and we really appreciate the colors and fun he brought to this collection, especially NOW. It's like we need it.
- Because we get to see Hanne being interviewed by the end of the second minute. Backstage cameras just love this girl too!

Long Time No Post

Alban look's changes always go beyond our expectations. And it such a long time since the last blog update, that this is what we call a major one.

To quote Mister-Master-To-Dye-For-Alban " Black is to relieve my hair from the pink color I had for so long"... Can't wait for next time! And you?

No Holidays For Our New Faces!

While Amélie and Pauline are both going to Greece on stay to strengthen their books, Camille is in Singapore for 6 weeks. And Ellen goes to New-York City for the summer... Who said model's life was relaxed? It's all about choices: holidays or work? Those teenagers already know what 'being professional' really means.

The Family Game

In the Rodriguez family, I want to see Philippe the father, Michel the Grand Father, Simon the son and Coraline the cousin... They are actual relatives and all appear in this very pretty CNP commercial.
Directed by Koen Mortier, the concept is 'reversed life'. It's in French but you don't have to speak it to get the story. Not to mention the great adaptation of Chostakovitch Waltz, this film is a big success ... and yet another WONDER BOOKING from our people department.

Crush @ La Cambre

Not a little one... A HUGE crush! Ercan, our special correspondant on the La Cambre Show 2009, felt for Lucile Puton's men's wear collection. Here is her part of the show.

It's so nice to see Emma-Louise on last Brigitte Woman's Cover and Isabelle Losfeld in the inside pages!

Our Classic department has two fairies: Niki & Patricia! Besides the Classics, both take really good care of our People, Actors and Plus Size departments! And they make WONDER bookings!

Full Asian House

With Lisa back from Cambodia & Ildiko from Japan, the full booking team is back to work with an Asian vibe. Here is a summary of Asian beauty tips they brought back ;

For your skin: Bamboo for remineralization, ginseng as energizer, green tea for radiance, reishi to scrub rinkles, yuzu to protect, shiitake to boost defenses, rice extract as anti-aging and soybean to stimulate collagen production. And white skin is an Asian-must, so think about sun protection.

A LONG Weekend To Practise

With a long week-end ahead (Office is closed on Monday June the 1st) and the two Belgian major Styling Schools shows coming-up (La Cambre & the Academy of Antwerp), it's time to get prepared to walk on the runway with high high hiiiiigh heels.

This cool video from Modelinia is great summary of the four points to focus on, to walk like a supermodel. Watch carefully and practise!



Have great week-end

Anouk Is A Groupie

She walked hundreds of miles on European runways, but she would RUN a greater distance across Europe to get to see all the DEPECHE MODE's concerts. So fare, she has tickets to attend to 9 of them!

Bad & sad news: Depeche Mode's singer, David Gahan, is recovering from an emergency surgery. The first concert in Dusseldorf is postponed...

We hope David will get better very soon. Our thoughts, (and especially Anouk's ones) are with him and his family of course.
