As one of the most influential names in casting Angus Munro for AM Casting<\/a> (Los Angeles: Streeters Los Angeles<\/a>, New York: Streeters New York<\/a>)<\/strong>‘s choices impact the way in which we view fashion. A good casting director fills a show with an impressive lineup of girls, but a great one carefully crafts an aesthetic via their selection. With a host of high profile NYFW shows under his direction Angus dictates the look for brands like Helmut Lang<\/a>, Opening Ceremony<\/a>, Peter Som<\/a> and many more. We caught up with Angus in the midst of fashion week’s madness and got his insight on the casting process, what makes a model standout and of course his favorite new faces. <\/p>\n What was the look or feel you were going for with this season’s Helmut Lang<\/a> casting? <\/strong><\/p>\n AM:<\/strong> Since I started working with Helmut Lang a couple of seasons ago we have been fine tuning who the Helmut Lang girl is. In my mind she is effortlessly chic while young, tough and streetwise. I think you can see from this season’s casting that we have just about nailed that. This is a fast growing super aspirational brand that is incredibly successful sales wise, so establishing the right dna of the Helmut girl is crucial to its continued rise.<\/p>\n Any familiar faces we should look forward to on the Helmut Lang runway?<\/strong><\/p>\n AM:<\/strong> Of course there are some of our favorites who are always right for any Helmut collection; girls such as Katlin Aas<\/a>\u00a0and Caroline Brasch Nielsen<\/a> (my favorite girl), but there are quite a number of new girls\u2026 notably our opening girl Megan and my tip for stardom, Devon Windsor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n![\"image\"](\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2013\/09\/image-700x700.jpeg\")
