Now that the novelty of her similarities with Natalia Vodianvoa has worn off, do you find Barbara over-hyped and rather boring as a model?

She is sweet and fresh!

Personally, I used to love her face but lately I've grown tired of her. And tbh, she's just not tall enough, relatively. I don't agree with (pro-)ana sites bashing her for gaining weight but ngl, it will be harder for her to book runway if seen as thicker next to the other girls.

As she matures, I think her body type will not be of the runway thin model like Monika Jac, etc. She will have to really starve down and it'll be unnatural and unhealthy in the long run. I don't see Barbara doing HF for long, but she can work it in commercial stuff if she chooses to compromise down the road.

She looks a bit horse-faced in some of these. But overall she's still very pretty.

i adore her and think she'll have no problem working as she ages. her look is so fresh and youthful.

These pictures are kind of boring, imo, but I honestly don't know if that is just inexperience (I don't know how long she's been modeling, so I figure benefit of the doubt), a dull photo director, or if she's just a boring model, period.

yeea i'd probably lean more towards her being just a boring model, seeing as how she's been walking major shows since spring 2010

she's an extremely gorgeous girl but i don't feel she has that it factor you need to command attention.

I like her a lot (especially because of the Vodianova factor). But I don't know how far she can go unless she has a growth spurt. She seems to have really short limbs, and clothes often look too big on her. It looks like she's playing dress up.

And she makes some very annoying faces in her eds.

agreed. she's already 18 and only listed at 171cm. i actually think her youthful look will work against her as she'll always struggle at pulling off sexier looks, and with a pretty small leg:torso ratio, most of hf will be cut out as well

Yes but for commercial work she's perfect and I hope she goes that road.
I actually like that she has relatively short legs and who knows it could work in her favour bc she's much more relatable for the average girl than a 1,80m girl.

I might not follow news very religiously these days, so I dunno if she's over-hyped or something. I like her so far.

She's too short and I do not find her special.

I like her. She's not that special but I hope a good career for her. With the body she has and that adorable face she'd be very good for VS's Pink segment. She could be very appealing to the young people they target with Pink.
