Lisa Ostanina
Lisa is a young model originally from Izhevsk. When a representative of a world-famous modeling agency wrote to her and invited her to work, she didn’t believe it, because she never considered herself pretty. But it all ended with the fact that at the age of 15, Lisa went to work in Japan and continues to conquer the fashion capitals of the world.
Issa Lish
The model is half Mexican and half Japanese. She became famous for her angular, androgynous and even slightly alien features. Issa studied art history and was going to be a sculptor, but life turned out differently. By the way, this model has a rather non-trivial and psychedelic instagram.
Laura O'Grady
As a child, Laura was teased because of her large protruding ears, but she says it never occurred to her to get rid of this feature through surgery. The girl has already done it brilliant career models.
Sierra Sky
The girl's appearance is often compared to the appearance of heroines from the paintings of the Renaissance: wavy long hair, oval face, barely noticeable eyebrows, sensual lips and thin nose.
