MODEL THOUGHTS As topless photos of Miranda Kerr and her man, the actor Orlando Bloom, in the buff in Spain hit the internet yesterday, it was all work for the models who would follow in her footsteps, as they strutted out at a David Jones model casting. About 180 models vied for about 40 spots in the department store's Summer 08 collections launch, to be held in August. Many admitted to idolising the fresh-faced fashion stunner from Gunnedah, who is to replace Megan Gale on the catwalk as the brand's fashion ambassador. "I think every single girl here would honestly tell you that would be a dream [to follow Miranda]," said Tara Cooper of Vivien's Models. "Not only is she stunning and a Victoria's Secret model, she's so down-to-earth." One model who refused to be starstruck was Louise van de Vorst of Chadwick Models. The leggy blonde, whose wide-set eyes and sky-high cheekbones have drawn comparisons to another successful Aussie export, Gemma Ward, said she didn't look up to other models. smh.com.au
