Unless we’re talking about a supermodel, more often then not, new models will show up strong on the scene during a season and then are never seen again. High profile clients want fresh faces and new looks, so top agencies must deliver on that. These days it’s just not enough to be blonde, beautiful, and skinny. Also, a good agency must have a wide ethnic variety including American, Asian, Brazilian, Latin, Japanese, and African models. Here are the top 5 women that you can expect to see around during the 2008 Spring season:

1. Raquel Zimmermann
2. Doutzen Kroes
3. Julia Stegner
4. Hilary Rhoda
5. Coco Rocha
