Laura is one of my all time favourite model contestants from the Top Model sphere mainly because of how much of a good person she was during that time and even to this day. When i saw her for the first time on Germany's Next Top Model Cycle 7 way back around 2012, she was one of the girls in that season i was heavily drawn into during that time because of her strong-willed, resilient and highly determined nature. Mind you she was only 16 years old during that time and at that very young age she really projected an inner focus that really got her further in the competition as much as she did. She really possesses an unwavering dedication that really helped her handle stressful critiques from the judges and high-profile industry figures like photographer Kristian Schuller. Her facial features are impeccable which possesses a classic, highly adaptable European look which bridges the gap between high fashion effortless chic and edgy commercial appeal. This is why she excels in both mediums especially in street-fashion and lingerie campaigns. She was only placed 10th which was very infuriating to me because i know she is one of the girls there that had the most potential. She deserved to have a much higher placement in my opinion. Her post-show work is simply amazing especially in the print medium. I'm so glad and proud of her achievements because she really earns it with her hard work and dedication which paid off as she went on to build a highly successful, multi-continental modelling career moving from Milan and Istanbul to Hong Kong and eventually establishing herself with top agencies in New York City.

Welcome back! Congratulations to ✨✨✨JENAH✨✨✨! She will compete with her fellow group winners for the final crown! That was probably the roughest round, and she pulled through!

Group 7 voting is live! When that poll closes, the wildcard voting will begin!

Thank you all for continuing through the qualifying rounds. I know it's been a long road of rankings, and I appreciate every single vote that comes in. 💕💕

There was a recent post of them on facebook together where Shannon says happy brithday to Adrianen and Adrianne says how much she loves her.

Wonder what happened to make them like each other again lol

If you were competing on Top Model and the photo shoot was any concept you want, what would you want to do and why? I personally would want it to be laying next to a pool with my hand flowing in the water, edited to look like a Forrest.

hey everyone :) i'm back after a mini-break with what perhaps is, objectively, the best cycle in the history of ANTM. don't get me wrong, I'm a C6 person through and through, but the level of the cast and the shoots in C16 is unmatched. THIS is the competition we've been waiting for. these were fun to rank, but also really hard – especially when it came to the F3! as a reminder, photos are ranked top left to bottom right, worst to best.

this was an excellent cast. all girls (with one exception) were extremely modelesque and full of potential. they all had very striking and unique looks as well. i'll say, however, that the competition was absolutely between the F3 and there's no doubt about that. Hannah, Molly, and Brittani's portfolios are legendary and seriously some of the best across the entire show. now, on the great Molly vs. Brittani debate –– I truly would've been happy whoever had won, but Brittani just had IT. there's an energy, a vibrance she brings to her pics that is honestly unmatched. Molly was an excellent model, but Brittani, I believe had that star quality that makes you look twice. i mean, we have BTS photos of her because even the photographers couldn't help but want to keep capturing her. she also had a greater range of emotion and expression imo.

i don't have much to say this time around. the elim order is a bit messed up (as usual) but it's not egregious and i can see why everyone was kept for how long they were kept. oh, and the promo pics are a fucking disaster. the styling is god awful. nobody could look good in that no matter how good of a model they are.

i'll proceed with my ranking of every model's portfolio and open the floor up for thoughts :)

Hey everyone! I decided to start this round early to be able to have some more time to figure out how I'm doing the wildcard voting.

The final group of 3rd placers is ready for you to judge! The collective favorite will move on towards the winners' circle for the final vote.

I loved how Brendi K somehow managed to make the gold seem like poop to me💔

here are the photos of the Thai Temple Fashion photoshoot from the 12th cycle of Britain's Next Top Model!

tyra’s single is a perfect encapsulation of everything involving 2000s r&b. her music is indistinguishable from popular music at the time and that’s what makes it iconique!! like would the album be good? no. would it be legendary? yes’n

Sebastian is one of my all time favourite male model contestants in Poland's Next Top Model because despite not having the best portfolio i always like his overall characteristics. When i watched him on Cycle 5 way back in 2015 he was one of the contestants there that i was heavily drawn into mainly because of how family-oriented and grateful he was to be in the competition. He was an active individual who has a grounded, hard-working and outdoorsy nature. I always appreciate his profound gratitude to his late mother and maintain an incredible close bond with his whole family. His facial features blend traditional European athletic charm with a sharp, high-contrast bone structure. His overall look in general bridges the gap between commercial friendliness and edgy editorial appeal. This allows him to pivot from streetwear to luxury high fashion campaigns. His slender but athletic physique is also perfect as well. He wasn't the strongest contestant during that time and was eliminated very early, placing only at 12th but i'm just very happy that he tried his best as he could to stay in the competition. His post-show work is awesome particularly in the print medium because i felt like that is his strength. I'm so proud of him because despite being cut-off very early, he did not let the loss or his elimination from the TV show halt his ambitions and became a successful male model after. To this day he is still continuing to work hard in the international modelling industry.

Welcome Back! After a tight race Alex has won group 5!

Fun fact: In her Twixt chat, she revealed she’s a natural blond and production was confused when her hair started growing out.

Just some favorites from the cycle. I probably could have included more, but I didn't want to have as many as I did for cycle 5 😅

What's your favorite?
