Off-Duty Model Style is Still Runway Ready

Ever wonder how models dress when they actually have to dress themselves? I mean, sure, they look good when they’re being primped and pampered and dressed by the best in the business, but what exactly do these girls look like off the runway?

Deep down there is that little jealous voice inside all of us “mortal” women that secretly wants models to look like total hags in real life. Sadly, they don’t . These girls actually know how to dress themselves. And they all seem to have very individual styles. Perhaps a side-effect of the job.

Granted, they’re models for a reason, so they’re obviously going to look good in whatever they wear. It seems a lot of these Amazonian gals prefer slim leggings, leather and all things black. How edgy, right? I guess even a model can have a chip on her shoulder. Some models, like Hyoni Kang, like to put a preppy twist their off-runway style. While others, like Edita Vilkeviciute, prefer a more bohemian look. As I continue scrolling through picture after picture of gorgeous model, that little voice starts acting up again. Damn those girls! They all look amazing without even trying. Even in the grungiest of clothes they still look like stunners.

Then there are those models, the big timers like Agyness Deyn and Irina Lazareanu who use the city streets as their everyday runways. You can tell these girls really enjoy fashion and it’s a larger part of their lives than just the few moments they spend on the runways.
