Campaigns I think Danielle would look nice in and could possibly get soon (meaning they usually feature relatively unknown models), if she is pushed and supported by Ford:
*any of the high-end stores- like Saks, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, etc. The Sept. and Mar. issue of the big magazines feature several ads from each store, one model wearing designs from several different companies. I think that'd be good work for a new model.
*Bebe
*Arden B
*DKNY
*Sean Jean
*Nina Ricci
*Banana Republic
*Nicole Miller
"What, sucka?! Do you want me to stab you with this spoon? In yo jugular?"
Career Advice Tip #1:
Base yourself in NYC, budget enough money to finance a 3 month or more stay in Paris during the time when the major fashion shows are being booked / presented.
Career Advice Tip #2:
Audition for Project Runway. PR is a prestigious reality show and you will get great runway experience and exposure. It may sound like a step backwards, but if anyone sees the models on that show, they blow ANTM models away, so getting cast on PR may not be a slam dunk even for someone as awesome as Danielle. Michael Kors and Elle editor Nina Garcia are permanent judges. Fashion designer guest judges included: Badgely and Mischka, Cynthia Rowley, Diane Von Furstenburg, Betsey Johnson and Vera Wang (this upcoming season).
It films a few weeks in July-August a slow time for the fashion industry (although I think this is when a lot of the September Fashion Week shows are booked); so there shouldn't be a lot of conflicts. So it may work out well, splitting time between go-sees and doing the PR "shows". If Danielle is selected by one of the final 3/4 designers then she will walk in February's Fashion Week.
Sepia, do you have any pictures you can post? I know some of these designers, but I always like it when you post the pictures.

Wow she's is getting alot of comparisons to other people in looks. I dont think she looks anything like Tocarra, Ciara, Tiffany etc. I think Danielle look wise outshines them all. I saw her this morning on regis and Kelly. She looked STUNNING. The best Ive ever seen her. I think they finally made the best choice because not only is she gorgeous in pictures, she's gorgeous in person. I just didnt see that with Joanie. Her personality made her pretty to me but just looking at her, I think she looks like a witch a little bit mixed with a bunny rabbit. Not at all ugly but Danielle looks better in person. I was dissapointed with Danielle's speech on Regis and Kelly. Yes big change in her voice but I kinda like the homegirl-country girl accent on Danielle. I didnt think her speech was revelvant to the competition. If we ever see her in a real covergirl commercial, I may change my mind but sorry dont think she needed the speech coaches just to do the "my life is a covergirl" segments on UPN. Look at all the models with very thick foreign accents. They obviously arent changing and its not hurting their success. Im happy for Danielle and glad she won. Hope she becomes a very successful MODEL instead of just a reality tv star. This is the one winnner that I think can break out of that mold and become a real model.
