The Australian-raised beauty was seen at the runway presentations for Alexandre Vauthier, Iris Van Herpen, Christian Dior, and Giambattista Valli. Whether she modeled her Medusa-like mini or a fire engine red Marilyn Monore-esque dress, Deng puts on her signature pout.

Although Deng has been kept busy from appearing on magazines covers like i-D or doing print AD campaigns for Calvin Klein, she still manages to give her fans an inside scoop on her hectic schedule thanks to Twitter (Follow her at @itsajakdeng).

So what’s your favorite runway look on Ajak Deng? Giambattista Valli feathers, Christian Dior ‘80s art deco, Alexandre Vauthier‘s red thigh-high slit dress, or Iris Van Herpen’s Octupus ode?
