Teenaged model Katrina Karlina Caune won the 2010 Ford Supermodel of the World contest.
The 16-year-old girl from Latvia emerged victorious among the 36 young aspirants who joined the final competition in Sao Paolo, Brazil where they spent five full days of photo tests, walking lessons, samba lessons, interviews, casting calls, modeling workshops and judging with Ford Model licensees.
With very pale skin, black hair and piercing blue eyes, Karlina's beauty vowed the scrutinizing audience which include Ford Director Caroline Poznanski, Ford icon Chanel Iman, V Magazine publisher Stephen Gan, philanthropist Katie Ford and Brazilian celebrity Marcelle Bittar.
But what made Karlina won the competition was her runway-perfect poise and smart attitude that have really stood out throughout the event. She walked away with a $250,000 contract with Ford Models.
Runner-ups Charlene Almarvez from the Philippines, Isabelle Storck from Sweden, Olivia Majour from the USA, Maryna Linchuck from Belarus, Grace Hurley from Australia and Bruna Tiedt from Brazil were also awarded with Ford modeling contracts.
