KEEPING IT IN THE FAMILY

July 16th, 2009

When we meet a new model with a promising future, we know it right away. Whether we’re struck by their looks, their presence, their movement, or their conversational skills, we sense something about them that guarantees they will be big.

This is just how we felt when Paolo Anchisi walked through the doors of Art + Commerce earlier this week. We’re not sure if he knows it yet, but we have the feeling he’s going to be major. After all, his mother is the great Lynne Koester: an 80s supermodel who was not only a favorite of Steven Meisel, but also was a predecessor to Linda Evangelista and Cindy Crawford. We’re not surprised to see her great attitude and looks transferred to her son. See the proof for yourself below.
