She is only 15, but already running the gamut of runway shows, and she has an amazing look everyone is talking about!!! Very Reminiscent of Brigette Bardot, don't ya think!!
Last September, amid the swirling chaos that is New York Fashion Week, one girl stood out like a beacon for photographer Gabrielle Revere. "She was just so stunning, and different than all the other girls," Revere recalls of the backstage moment she first met "shy but confident" model Lindsey Wixson, a 5-foot-10 beauty from the decidedly unglam town of Wichita, Kansas. In the few months it took for Fashion Week to roll around again, Wixson's career has skyrocketed: She is now the face of Miu Miu, a gig that's previously gone to Hollywood types like Katie Holmes, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Kirsten Dunst. Beyond the obvious -- those bee-stung lips, that distinctive gap, the tumbling blond tresses -- how best to describe the 15-year-old's appeal? "She's got something, she's got that thing that defines people," says Revere, struggling to put Wixson's magic into words. In this LIFE.com gallery, Revere follows Wixson through the just-wrapped Fall/Winter 2010 shows, watching as the young model navigates her way through a sea of designers, stylists, makeup artists, paparazzi, and more.
