The new faces you're going to want to recognise. We made their acquaintance for our Connection issue. They talked star signs and secret talents. Before they're everywhere, meet our models to know in 2020. (And stay tuned for our next introduction, later this week.)

Varsha Kumar @ Chadwick Models

 

My secret talent is ...

Winning claw machine games.

My star sign ...

Is Libra.

It suits me because ...

I’m definitely a lover rather than a fighter and find myself always trying to seek balance with those around me.

Outside of modelling, I’m working on ...

Lots of little things. I like to learn how to do things so I can be independent, so I can cook, do embroidery, boxing ... lots of things here and there.

The last time I felt inspired was ...

Today. (I don’t know if this is cheesy, but) I find little things that keep me going on the daily. Just reflecting on yesterday or observing things around me, reminds me of who I am and what I want to do.

 

Beti Chuol @ Kult Australia

 

My name is ...

Achirin Chuol.

But my friends call me ...

Beti.

The first thing you should know about me is ...

That I am transforming into my new personality, I am on a wave of switching things up around me to create a strong foundation of who I am, that I can stand on .

Only the people closest to me know...

That I do not listen to anyone but myself. I am not the one to be controlled.

I have a deep connection with ...

My mum even though I don’t always show it, we both love each other very deeply.

 

Ben Lloyd @ Chic Management

My star sign is ...

Leo!

It suits me because ...

I am absolutely through and through a Leo. I’m extroverted and social.

Only the people closest to me know ...

That I am actually a massive history nerd (and I mean history in a good way).

The biggest misconception about me is ...

People assume that since I am extroverted, I am incredibly confident. The reality is that I can be astoundingly socially awkward at the best of times, and sometimes get crippling anxiety before a shoot.

The things that connect us all are ...

The feeling of sunshine on your face, sitting down after being on your feet, a hug from someone that loves you.

 

Alice Yang @ IMG

My star sign is ...

Aquarius.

It suits me because ...

I’m independent and love doing things by myself but would also do anything to spend time with the people I love.

Outside of modelling ...

I love taking photos!

I care about ...

Being the reason someone smiles.

My energy is ...

FUN.

What connects us all is ...

Kindness.
