Croatian Model Turning Heads at New York Fashion Week

It is the week in New York when all the major international designers are in town presenting their latest collections. New York Fashion Week, one of four major fashion weeks in the world with Paris, London and Milan, came to a close last night in the Big Apple, and it was a 22-year-old Croatian model who was in demand by creators…

Ana Buljević, from the Dalmatian city of Split, modelled collections from a number of notable international designers this week, including Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang. Buljević’s unique facial aesthetics and 180cm frame has seen her become one of the most sought-after models since moving to New York two years ago.

“I was not that impressed that at the New York Fashion Week I shared the catwalk with Kendall Jenner, Kim Kardashian’s sister. More important was that I modelled collections by Alexander Wang, Thakoon, Public School, Tanye Taylor, Monique Lhuillier, Wes Gordon… ,” Buljević said to Jutarnji list, who says life in New York is going good.

“I have been living in America the past two years, and I love New York a lot. I feel at home in that city, and I think it is one of the factors of my success,” said Ana.

Ana, who was nominated as one of the three most successful models at last year’s Elle Style Awards, will also work at the London, Milan and Paris Fashion weeks this year.
