Models Direct: Lindsey Wixson Is The New Face Of Alexander McQueen

With her bee-stung lips and dimple chin Lindsey Wixson is fast becoming fashion’s new model of the moment, and all at just 16 years old.

Jan. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- Knowing that she wanted to be a model at just 12 and beginning her career as a child model in 2009, the quirky gap-toothed American has quickly made an impression on the team here at Models Direct.

And it seems we’re not the only ones loving her distinctive look. Following her runway debut in the Cynthia Steffe show at New York Fashion Week, Wixson went on to open the Spring 2010 Prada show as an exclusive.

She has also fronted campaigns for Miu Miu, Versace and Mulberry, and now Alexander McQueen has just cast her as the new face of the label.

Set to star in McQueen’s new spring/summer 2011 brand images in-store, on billboards and on the website, expect to see the stunning teen looking saintly surrounded by orange and white butterflies, and with woven crisscross hair – just as she had when walking for the ready-to-wear collection in Paris.

We at Models Direct (http://www.modelsdirect.com) think that Wixson’s look is a perfect fit for the brand, which Sarah Burton - who designed her debut womenswear collection for Alexander McQueen spring/summer 2011 – says “is about very strong, powerful women” who also “feel tender”.
