Lifetime announced the contestants for
Project Runway's seventh season yesterday, and unfortunately there are no local designers to be found on the lineup. However, there is one local model who will be competing. Her name is Monique Darton, and here's what I've been able to find out about her: she's originally from Brainerd, where she graduated from high school in 2003 and signed with Minneapolis agency
Vision Model Management. She now lives in New York and is signed with Wilhelmina Models.

PR. Here's some more images of her:



Monique Darton is exquisite and obviously
ReplyDeletetalented! Her parents must be very, very
proud of her. We'd like to see more of
her in a Vogue cover shoot!
