Ask any keen fashion observer to define beauty as it stands on the runways of the world right now and odds are they’ll be at a loss for words. It’s not through any deficiency in preternaturally attractive models emerging – where there is fashion there will always be extraordinary women to bring it to life – but rather there’s been a widening of focus, a shift in paradigms, if you will. The more intriguing, more multilayered the individual, it seems, the more fascinated designers, editors and the wider fashion consuming public become.

Take Shanina Shaik, for example. With her compelling features it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where she might hail from. Melbourne-born and raised by an Australian/Lithuanian mother and a Pakistani/Saudi Arabian father, her look is unlike anything on the international modelling scene. It’s likely why Victoria’s Secret, a brand known for its predilection towards Amazonian supermodels like Gisele Bündchen, decided to book the petite brunette for its high profile 2011 show after passing her over for two years running. Likewise Karl Lagerfeld, who spied her potential and cast her in Chanel’s pre-fall presentation just a month later. And all before the age of 21.

Autumn/winter ’12/’13 saw Shaik land the plum job of walking for Stella McCartney and the honour of opening for Jason Wu. Finding success on the world stage has been a long-held dream for Shaik.

Having dabbled in modelling since she was young, and spending her teenage years glued to late-night fashion television, her breakthrough came in the form of reality television show Make Me a Supermodel. While such programs can be viewed as a setback for those “serious” about the business, Shaik saw it as a positive.

“I would not regret being involved with the show, because I don’t look like the usual Australian girl, so I think I just needed the show to get myself out there,” she says. The experience not only provided her with a profile but a chance to meet model mentor (and, more recently, boyfriend) Tyson Beckford. “He took a picture of me and showed one of the agencies in New York that he was corresponding with and they took me on.”

After leaving high school with impressive results, Shaik headed for Manhattan, where she now kicks around in biker jackets and big T-shirts, jeans and boots, and spends her down time taking in Jets games and riding on motorbikes. Not what you would expect from such a seemingly fragile, angelic beauty. But then appearances can be deceiving.

“Everyone has something unique about them,” she says. “I’m just starting to realize that my ‘look’ can be well received.”
