Model Behavior: Joan Smalls

Joan Smalls knows how to work the runway. Not only is she beautiful, her walk is fierce. In her short career the Puerto Rican model has graced the catwalks of Tory Burch, Rachel Roy, Oscar de la Renta, Ports 1961, and Sophie Thallet. With her piercing gaze and endless legs she reminds me of young Tyra Banks. Keep your eyes open, Joan is definitely one to watch She is repped by Elite Model Management.
