Fab Interview! Model Lisanne De Jong Talks Style and Studies Backstage at BCBGMAXAZRIA

Before we chatted with Maggie Rizer in the front row, we got to speak with young Elite model Lisanne De Jong backstage at BCBGMAXAZRIA's Fall show.

Before we chatted with Maggie Rizer in the front row, we got to speak with young Elite model Lisanne De Jong backstage at BCBGMAXAZRIA's Fall show. Lisanne, who's been a model for three years and hails from Holland, opened up about Fashion Week and her personal style.

FabSugar: What shows are you walking this season?
Lisanne De Jong: This is my first one! It's always last minute so I will book more, but I don't know yet.

FS: What's your favorite go-to item in your closet?
LDJ: It's so hard to decide. Probably my Alexander Wang leopard wedges.

FS: Can you describe your personal style?
LDJ: Comfy, but chic. I'm more of a heels person than sneakers. I like Rag and Bone, and Topshop.

FS: If you weren't a model, what would you be?
LDJ: I would be studying psychology right now.

Burberry

Rumor: Gucci Prevents Models From Walking Burberry; Plus, a Burberry Face Falls on the Runway

>> Although the big Spring 2011 Burberry model story includes Burberry face Nina Porter's much-Tweeted runway fall while closing, industry insiders are buzzing about something else.

>> Although the big Spring 2011 Burberry model story includes Burberry face Nina Porter's much-Tweeted runway fall while closing, industry insiders are buzzing about something else. According to rumors, last night, Gucci demanded all girls cast in their show fly into Milan, pronto. That means Burberry's usual all-star London lineup — Freja Beha Erichsen and Lily Donaldson among them — were already gone; Burberry did nab Jourdan Dunn and Lisanne De Jong, however.

Prada

Celine, Prada Go For Headless Model Look with Spring 2010 Ad Campaigns

>> The trend of using uniform, indistinguishable models has been taken one step further this season: a couple of prominent brands have chosen to crop their models' heads out of ads, eluding any recognizability.

>> The trend of using uniform, indistinguishable models has been taken one step further this season: a couple of prominent brands have chosen to crop their models' heads out of ads, eluding any recognizability. Two out of three Prada Spring 2010 ads out so far show a model, the upper half of her head lopped out of the picture, with bag swung over her shoulder; the third ad finally shows her full face, revealing her to be Rasa Zukauskaite. And in Phoebe Philo's first campaign for Celine, shot by Juergen Teller, the first photo out includes four bodies, but no heads or feet at all.  Perhaps further down the line the faces of Lisanne de Jong, Carmen Kass, Jacquelyn Jablonski, and Valerija Kelava — all said to be Celine Spring 2010 faces — will be revealed?
