Kika Rose Ridley. The name is totally unforgettable. The face is pretty the same. It's the story of a slightly smaller girl. A new tiny queenie in the fashion world. A new and very fresh energy, a new wind blowing on her editorials. She's doing well in what we're calling now "training-ground magazines" adding a new one every month. An endless flow of refreshing pictures which are turning out to be a fantastic portfolio once when you put them all together. Stories side by side and all in a row. Stories within the story.
Kika Rose's tests were already like a warning for anyone taking a look at her book. Despite a being a few inches smaller than the average model, there was some agressive potential in the very first pictures and no place for doubts.
A part of the power is in the very natural, laid-back attitude and the ease to please the camera. Most dramatic posers are often models that aren't completely aware of it. Of course this is not the only reason to make a detailed profile of Kika Rose, a pretty (and precious) face like hers is her most reliable asset and an obvious reason of her presence at Models1 and Major Paris. Cute, of course. But not only. She has the jawline and the cheekbones drawn for succes as well. She's got both. Almost a paradox, the kind of paradoxes that are well-liked by fashion.
From one paradox to the other, Kika Rose is also proving her uncommon look was appealing for various stylings in different kinds of editorials. Different moods. From beach-party atmosphere last month to the current boho-inspired story (see above). Imp's glimpse uncanny candy. Kika Rose's first kicks in magazines (Jalouse, Biba, Androgyny, Cover or Amelia's) are not only remarkable but also plenty of blossoming diversity. Here are the stunning debuts of a 5'7"5 girl's fairy tale.
