Your Favourite Models Before They Were Your Favourite Models

Casting agency COACD will be releasing Wild Things, an extensive collection of test shots, shot by Douglas Perrett between 2000 – 2010. The collection features some of the most recognizable faces in fashion, captured before the fame. Wild Things won’t be available to the public, so check out Douglas’s Polaroids and first impressions of the likes of Abbey Lee, Rosie & the late Daul Kim.

 

ABBEY LEE KERSHAW

First impression: “They kept sending her over to hang out. I wasn’t sure why, neither was she.”

 

ARIZONA MUSE

First impression: “Didn’t get at first; Her hair, her face.”

 

CANDICE SWANEPOEL

First impression: “Didn’t like her; Found her very Barbie-like.”

 

CHANEL IMAN

First impression: “Realized how young these kids are. She needed a hug that day.”

 

DAUL KIM

First impression: “We just connected in a nerdy bloggy kind of way; lots of staring and grunting sounds.”

 

HILARY RHODA

LIU WEN

First impression: ”Professional, in and out. Class act.”

 

MIRANDA KERR

First impression: ”She would always do her castings with her blonde friend, another Aussie who would always get the job. She never booked the jobs.”
