Show ponies - David Jones Autumn/Winter 2013

grey wasp/blue wasp/splash news
Miranda Kerr has touched down (here she is, above, arriving at Sydney airport on Friday, Louis Vuitton luggage in tow) which means it's show time at David Jones. All eyes and cameras will be trained on the Australian department store's 7th floor tomorrow night for the Autumn/Winter 2013 showcase. Frockwriter will, as usual, have all the backstage action but in the interim, we were interested to take a peek at the list of 50 other names who will be flanking La Kerr on the runway. Not surprisingly, this season's cast list is reflective of the dramatic changes that the Australian modelling industry has undergone over the past 12 months, with the launch of a major new competitor in IMG Models. This time last year, a number of names - including Kerr - were repped by other agencies. 

Here's the cast list, together with the various agency names. Sadly there is no Julia Nobis this time around, nor a number of other rising Australian modelling stars such as Jemma Baines, Montana Cox and Nicole Pollard. The timing of DJs' winter show is usually awkward, given its proximity to New York Fashion Week, which commences on Thursday. Many models are in New York attending castings and fittings. 

The list does include four internationals FYI: an Alaskan (Kelsey Close), a Romanian (Alina Ilie), a Latvian (Svietta Nemcova) and the Netherlands' Kasper Breuker.
