HCM CITY — Tuyet Lan, winner of Asian Model Search 2011 and Hoang Thuy, Viet Nam's Next Top Model 2011 champion, have left for New York Fashion Week following the invitation of the event's organiser, the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

The two leading Vietnamese models, who make their appearance on the catwalk in the latest spring-summer collections in New York, will appear in the show of more than 60 collections of world famous brands, including BCBGMAXAZRIA, DKNY, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, and others.

BeU Model, which manages the two Vietnamese models, sent the women's portfolios every where in the world. Fortunately, they were invited to perform at this event.

Their portfolios deeply impressed fashion designer Korto Momolu, named one of the five best designers at New York Fashion Week 2010.

This is the first time Viet Nam has sent representatives to this event showcasing the world's best fashion designers.

Korto Momolu, Laurel DeWitt and other world leading fashion designers talked to BeU Model and invited Tuyet Lan and Hoang Thuy to the fashion event.

Upon the invitation, Hoang Thuy uttered that she could not believe it. While Tuyet Lan said participating in the world's Fashion Week was a dream of hers that now could be realised.

Accompanying Tuyet Lan and Hoang Thuy, Ngoc Thach, winner of Viet Nam Supermodel 2010, also makes her appearance at the fashion week which ends on Sunday.

The semi-annual New York Fashion Week is held in February and September of each year in New York City.

The "Olympic Fashion" is one of four major fashion weeks held around the world, along with those in Paris, London, and Milan. The three models have become the first Vietnamese models to participate in the event. — VNS
