Last season the buzz surrounding Bell’s sister, Ruth, was deafening—now it’s May’s turn in the spotlight. As the star of Burberry’s Pre-Fall collection lookbook, Bell sports Christopher Bailey’s cool-girl staples with ease and proves she’s every bit as alluring as her rising-star sister.

Model fans of the early ’00s may find themselves doing a double take when they see Polina Oganicheva: The Russian newcomer’s high cheekbones and piercing stare call to mind Tom Ford–era Gucci girl Adina Fohlin. And wouldn’t you know, Oganicheva is a favorite of Gucci’s current designer, Alessandro Michele! Oganicheva was a standout presence in the brand’s artsy Pre-Fall imagery.

Though she’s been on the scene since 2013, Jamaican model Shamone Edwards is in the midst of a full-blown “moment.” Tall and athletic with an enviable ’fro, Edwards looked divine on the runway for Thom Browne, as well as in the brand’s minimalist imagery.

With her full pout and dark eyes, Yana Bovenistier could easily pass for Mica Arganaraz’s sister, but she has her own brand of nonchalant cool. With an Alexander Wang lookbook under her belt and a too-cool haircut sure to be imitated, Bovenistier is among the latest in Wang’s always buzzy gang.

An elegant tomboy who has caught the eye of both Opening Ceremony and Jason Wu, Dilone has a beauty that is effortless and androgynous. Looking right at home in Wu’s pantsuits and OC’s iridescent streetwear, her versatility is sure to come in handy once the Fall shows come around.
