The Eye Does London Fashion Week

With us in New York, Lydia and James working and Eddie and Rahma out of the country I kinda assumed that The Eye wouldn't have much to do with LFW this year, so we were half way through before I realised that couldn't have been more wrong. There was.................

Xavi and Jeremy @ Krizia Robustella



Millie opening Lako Bukia (Look at Janice looking on jealously!!!) and closing Corrie Nielson



Willem @ Lou Dalton



Rob @ Oswald Boateng



Jessica @ Clements Ribiero, Masha Ma & Prophetik



And then Ms Mohamed arrived back in town, just in the nick of time to..............

Open Aminaka Wilmont



Close Osman



And also walk for Ashish and Elliot J Frieze



She also did Trina Turk and Binetti in New York, all without appearing in a single show pack!!!




Nice work guys and we promise to take a lot more notice next season. In fact rumour has it that we might make a sensational casting comeback!!!

CHARLIE'S ANGELS

When Charlie moved agencies to head up his own mens division it was inevitable that some of the The Eye boys would follow.

JAMES S

LINUS

WILLEM

Are now at Elite London!!!

America's NEXT Top Model!!!

The subline Miss Rahma is now at NEXT NYC and I can sleep peacefully once again!!!

I'm Digging Their Scene

Ok so Scene Sydney have changed their name to EMG but i'm not going to let that stop me using a crap pun as a title. Anyway all you need to know is

Ms Kowalska


and Mr Wrey Esq


are now signed in Oz

Vitamin E (for Eye)

When Vitamin Water wanted to launch in the UK they asked The Eye to find the cool kids to represent each flavour. We mixed it up, with some streetcasting, some models and some of our own. Now you can't walk down the street without seeing Emma D (obv) and Slinky extolling the delights of flavoured sugar water from massive billboards.

I won't comment on the drinks but the campaign is a triumph

Great Trailer - Shame About The Show!!!

I watched precisely 10 minutes of Channel 5's new all singing, all dancing extravaganza "Don't Stop Believing". I decided that life was just too short to waste on such shit.

Having said that I could watch the trailer all day. It's AMAZING!!! Especially as it stars the fabulous Eye girls Twigs, Phoenix, and Emma D!!!

The Trinity

Back in the day the 3 biggest models in the world were knicknamed The Trinity, well when we had 3 of our stars in the studio together with Alisa last week we couldn't resist. Having wracked up jobs for Gucci, D&G, Armani and Balenciaga inthe past couple of months The Eye's very own supermodels are well on the way

Eddie Wrey, Lydia K, James Sorrentino

NEXT DIRECTLY

JEREMY IS NOW AT NEXT!!!

The CONTRAversial Ms Mohamed

When my good friend Trung asked me to suggest a model who could best represent multicultural London in the latest edition of his uber cool Contra Mag, I immediately thought of the divine Rahma.

Got Alisa in to take a gorgeous pic and you can read all about it here!!!

Eye Love Ponies............

And it seems like ponies love The Eye as well. When Ponystep were looking for some coverstars for their new CD collaboration with Kitsume they turned to us provide them with the coolest kids in London.

Rosie
Guy
Annaliese @ Union
Matt Law

Now I'm just looking forward to the launch party, but in the meantime we're off to Paris for the menswear shows and will of course be attending the Ponystep party whilst we're there.

P.S - I'm really sorry for the terrible title to this post. It was late and I was tired but more importantly I'd just come across this fabulous advert!!!

Rahma's Got The Eye!!!

I've been holding off on this one just because there was all kinds of contract disputes and New York agency conflamas and I didn't want to jinx anything, but it finally seems to be getting sorted and, at last, it gives me great pleasure to say..............

RAHMA'S WITH THE EYE!!!

This fact makes me.

She came to me at the end of last year to say that it was really about time that she moved agencies. I'd been thinking the exact same thing for some time, so was somewhat relieved that she'd come to the same conclusion. We went to see Models 1 who snapped her up straight away and I signed her to WM so that she now has proper representation in Paris.

She'll ne back off to New York next month.

Four years ago when I met Rahma, the very first words out of my mouth were "You're AMAZING!!!".

Some things never change.

Big Brother is Watching Joseph (And So Are We!!!)

As if we need any more reasons to watch the last ever Big Brother, now we get to ogle to lovely Joseph every ad break as well.

Look how hot he looks just staring in the mirror!!!



Or checking his hair!!!



Or wearing glasses!!!



Look he can rock a feather boa!!!




And he even looks hot in drag!!!



Or in a shower cap!!!



Isn't he lovely??? I hear he was miming to Cher in the last clip. A boy after my own heart.

If only they hadn't kicked out Rachael this year's BB would be perfect.

GO CORIN!!!

It's That Time Of Year Again!!!

The Eye boys are off to the Menswear Shows....................

James is @ Future in Milan and Major in Paris

Linus is @ Angels & Demons in Paris

Eddie is @ Fashion in Milan and MGM in Paris.

Matt is @ Future in Milan.

We were going to go the Milan this season as we haven't been for a year, but have a very important wedding to attend next weekend, so Paris it is once again. We have more agencies to visit anyway + Patsy owes us drinks and most importantly Sarah is coming so we are bound to go on a bender!!!

Back To The Future!!!

Matt is now at Future.

She's In A Spin, She's Loving That SPIN She's In!!!

If Lydia wants a German agent, Lydia gets a German agent.

Loved the guys at Spin, so when they very politely asked if they could rep the fabulous Ms Kowalska I couldn't possibly say no.

She might go to Germany at the beginning of July for Berlin FW but it all depends if those Balenciaga options happen, or if if she's jetting back to Jordan to walk for Elie Saab or that Turkish Vogue shoot might get in the way!!! Oh the life of a busy international supermodel!!!

Zara's Got The Eye!!!

Many years ago I was Zara's booker. I left to set up The Eye and she went off to another agency for a while before going to Uni and then taking a break from modelling altogether.

After being out of the business for a year she gave me a call a few weeks back, to ask if I would consider being her Mother Agent and help her get signed again. Obviously I jumped at the chance!!!

She joined Nevs on Monday and booked the first casting that she was sent to, so will be jetting off to Orlando for 4 days next week!!!

Nice work Zara.

Nice work Steven.

Job well done!!!

P.S. - Have you seen their new website? HALLELUJAH!!!

Clarapatra Jones

When Rankin was shooting a fun American Horror story for 125 and needed someone to play the American Icon, Cleopatra Jones, there was only one model it could be

Miss Benjamin to the rescue

AT LAST!!!

It's taken a while, but everyone is up and looking gorgeous on The Eye Model Placement's website .

I got it done just in time for my trip to Hamburg today where all went swimmingly and loads of our boy and girls will be signed in Germany over the next few weeks. I made it to 8 appointments in one day and I'm knackered, but it was deffo worthwhile.

Now I'm going to forget about them all for the next few days, which I intend to spend in Berlin very drunk!!!

Urban Fox!!!

I've just signed the delightful Mr Law to Urban in Milan. He's off in a couple of weeks to try his luck in the fashion capital of the world which beats sleeping on my settee I suppose.

He'd just better bring me a fucking present back this time!!!

(I've Had) The Time Of My Life

Casting the new Swatch TV commercial, with Lianna, D&G boy Jamie Kendrick and the AMAAAAAAAAAAZING Suki. She's going to be MAJOR.

He's Behind You!!!

I love this picture of Willem casually hanging around Topshop, right beside an extremely large picture of himself, waiting to get mobbed my teenage girls. I don't think it worked this time, but it won't be long.

Lydia and Linus @ Angels and Demons

We can all breathe easy now, Lydia has Paris agent!!! And she's taking the beauteous Mr Stridfelt along with her.

Our latest 2 signings are with Angels and Demons. Ms Kowalska will be heading over next week for her first official stint in the City of Love, whilst Linus will be making his long awaited FW debut at the menswear shows in June.

Jessica Price

Hasn't had enough attention on this blog and she's been shooting some amazing work.

She's beautiful, intelligent, dedicated and a dream to work with
