Arlenis is everywhere now on elle.com


Arlenis: Model of the moment




Resort season may be something of a yawn (how much enthusiasm can the average gal really invest in a collection originally meant for the moneyed who filled their Vuitton steamer trunks with caftans and straw hats and jetted off to the South of France?) but it's getting a shakeup this week thanks to a stunning new face: Arlenis Pena. The Dominican-born beauty had us captivated yesterday morning at Oscar de la Renta, and apparently the designer is quite taken with her, as well--she escorted him to the Met Costume Institute Gala last week.

She also hit the runway at Dior on Monday and is said to have a starring role in the upcoming issue of Italian Vogue dedicated exclusively to black beauties, along with Jourdan Dunn, Iman, and Alek Wek. Not a bad C.V. for just 3 weeks in the business....looks like Marilyn has its next major star.
