Models Direct like to stay very well informed about those being tipped as ‘the next big thing’ in the modelling industry and when it comes to child models there seem to be some promising newcomers on the scene for 2012.

Last week we reported on Selah Marley – daughter of Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley – who has already appeared in Teen Vogue and walked for Macy’s. Model booking agents at the Models Direct offices couldn’t stop talking about Selah’s future modelling potential after seeing test shots of her online.

This week Noel Gallagher’s 11 year old daughter, Anais, has appeared twice on proud mum Meg Mathews’ Twitter page in a beautiful black and white image (shown above) taken by – photographer to the stars – Mario Testino. It is unclear as to whether Mathews approached fashion photographer Testino – who has famously photographed such names as Kate Moss and Diana, Princess of Wales – to snap her daughter, or whether he requested a photographic shoot himself.

‘Tween’ model Anais has already appeared in an advertisement for Paul Smith Children’s wear. The campaign went out last year and she was featured singing Dead or Alive’s ‘You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)’ alongside other young models. Maybe she will follow in her musical father’s footsteps! The likeness between Anais and her singer-songwriter dad is undeniable and she is certainly able to work the Gallagher pout, as can be seen in the image that has caused celebrity hairdresser Sam McKnight to declare her the next Kate Moss. “’My God, Anais is a beauty,” tweeted McKnight. “Move over KM!”

So far Noel Gallagher has made no comment on his daughter’s blossoming career, though according to rumours he has little time for the modelling industry.

Whatever he thinks, with Mathews as her mum and friends like Kate Moss’s daughter – Lila Grace – beside her, it seems that Anais may be destined to become a future trendsetter of the next generation of Primrose Hill celebrities.
