Proper Models Spotted in Dublin Shocker... Holy mother of divine Jaaaysus what's going on in this country at all? The banks have gone to the wall, the arse has fallen out of house prices, the public sector is about to go on strike, and now our beloved photocall queens are moving back in with their Mammies as proper actual genuinely really real models mop-up all the available work. WHERE will it all end? Asheena Naidoo There we were in Brown Thomas last night at a lingerie show expecting everyone’s favourite photocall queens to come prancing-out in their bras, knickers, and stacked-to-the-max heels only to find that BTs had only gone and hired proper catwalkers for the gig. Seriously! We aint kidding. Amy Ronning, Jenny Curran Shocking folks, we know... Ner a sign of Louise Kavanagh, Georgia Salpa, Sara Kavanagh or even fricken Nadia Forde! And there we were all thinking that this lot had the exclusive franchise on underwear posing in public... Nuts. How will our poor aul tabloid reporters manage? Yomiko MORE controversial than that - the trim and toned leggy models on show were all sporting their own hair, nails, breasts, eyelashes, AND even skin tone! Car-azy folks, no tangoed former beauty queens anywhere to be seen. We blame the recession. And, erm, Brian Cowen. Jenny Curran, Angelica Top Irish based models Asheena Naidoo, Jenny Curran, Yomiko, Amy Ronning, and Angelica were there strutting-their-stuff in Brown Thomas to launch The Lingerie Show featuring a few saucy numbers from US designer Calvin Klein. Nice. Glenda Gilson Style icon Glenda Gilson was spotted at the show eying-up the Brigitte Bardot inspired underwear collection. Sadly, we don't get to see The Glenda in her knickers that much any more since she hung-up her modelling spurs and took-up with the Xpose crowd... We demand to see Glenda in her smalls! Someone start a petition. Siobhan O'Connor Rocking a plaid red trilby hat - we also spotted uber stylish 98fm presenter Siobhan O'Connor at Brown Thomas measuring-up the models... Yomiko The Brown Thomas Lingerie Show was showcasing the latest undergarment styles and trends for Autumn & Winter 2009. For the ladies... Of course. Amy Ronning

Bored – Dublin October 27, 2009 - 22:09 I agree, Asheena looks amazing, and fantastically toned!! Nice to see some real models and not just tarts running around in Krystle! Diarmuid – dublin October 16, 2009 - 14:27 Re Asheena. thats rubbish whoever's giving out about her being too thin. She looks great don't blame her cos she's got lucky genes. She happens to be quite fond of Haagen Dazs so no worries there! Keep it up Ash looking fantastic JAMES WARDELL – Barcelona October 16, 2009 - 09:27 Re: various comments about Asheena Naidoo: She looks great, & models the clothes well - it`s not that she´s too thin (she`s just right for the job) - it`s due to a mix of genes, lifestyle (diet/exercise régime/age). Her physical traits can be summarised as ectomorphic. (REF: William Sheldon. The Varieties of Human Physique: An Introduction to Constitutional Psychology. New York: Harper, 1940.) Regards James Wardell Photography www.jameswardell.com ak October 13, 2009 - 17:50 "no tangoed former beauty queens anywhere to be seen." Has Jenny Curran not been a Miss Northern Ireland entrant and runner up upteen times? If I remember correctly she also tried for Miss Ireland. She is a photocall princess here in Belfast. yore ma October 12, 2009 - 18:57 Slagging off "photocall" models but yet you get pictures of every one of them (even the ones that really do fook all!) week in week out... now there's hypocrisy if ever I heard it. Aoife Mary October 12, 2009 - 17:21 Model A1= Emma Quinlan. We've been here before. I am satisfied that I am right. :) Model A1 – Dublin October 12, 2009 - 17:17 I WISH!!! In the know October 12, 2009 - 16:47 Model A1= Rosanna. Aoife Mary October 12, 2009 - 16:13 Model A1 - what curves? They are a mere illusion, she said so herself. Model A1 – Dublin October 12, 2009 - 10:23 agreed karen WAAAAY too skinny give me rosanna's curves any day. someone buy those girls a rasher sambo! Karen – Dublin October 12, 2009 - 08:45 Whats with Asheena N - she is SERIOUSLY WaY too thin.she is almost like a skeleton - thats not a great image to be putting out to young girls that the way she is stick thin is right.her model agent shouldnt allow her to model until she puts on some weight. model Angelica looks more normal like the rest of us .
