It never ceases to amaze me how fast model moms kick it into high gear postbirth [1]: First with Natalia Vodianova walking the Paris runways [2] three weeks after having her third child and now with Karen Elson, who has just been named the face of BCBG's Spring campaign [3].

Karen gave birth to her second child [4] in August and replaces another model mom, Angela Lindvall. Patrick Demarchelier photographed the series, which is sure to be stunning — Karen's light complexion and blazing red hair will look perfect in BCBG's washed-out Spring collection [5].
