One of the biggest thrills of Fashion Month is seeing all of the new faces that emerge on the runways. We were delighted to see the return of many of our breakouts of seasons past, Angelina Kendall and Julez Smith among them. This season introduced us to a swathe of new models who are quickly becoming runway pros. Even in their breakout seasons, new faces are already anchoring major shows: Stella Hanan opened Schiaparelli and closed Gucci, while Mia Armstrong kicked off the season strong at Ralph Lauren, and Sandra Murray finished off Versace on a high note. Vogue’s most recent class of breakout models aren’t only strutting their stuff on the runway—they’re also booking major campaigns. Yar Aguer landed an impressive first campaign for Chloé’s famed fall 2024 collection, and Nyajuok Gatdet lent her face to Gucci. Hailing from California to South Sudan and beyond, this group may come from all over the world, but they all have that same ‘It’ factor in common. Below, meet the breakout models of spring 2025.

new products have been launched; and an intense product development programme promises significant new introductions over the coming years." Among the biggest technical facility investments is a new test centre for transmissions engineer and manufacture in-house for tractors from 35hp to 160hp can reproduce field operating conditions and subject transmissions on tractors up to 300hp to severe performance Acquiring the EmmeGi tractor platform and cab manufacturing joint-venture last year gives ARGO Tractors full production and quality control of an important assembly Capable of producing up to 50 cab frames a day this specialist operation subjects all fully trimmed and equipped cabs to a computer-supervised test sequence to check instruments and electrical systems before they are transferred to the tractor assembly lines the current programme has already yielded the new McCormick X60 Series tractors from 92hp to 121hp which is proving a popular replacement for the venerable CX Series and the McCormick X70 Series (along with its Landini 7 Series counterpart) launched at Grassland UK the Cereals Event and the Royal Highland Show The X70 is the first of several new tractors in the pipeline that embrace more sophisticated engine technology to improve field performance and fuel economy while meeting latest exhaust emissions requirements ARGO Tractors has confirmed it will continue with the current policy of sourcing the most suitable engines from different manufacturers: Yanmar and Perkins for three- and four-cylinder engines up to 110hp with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) providing the core emissions control technology;

Argo Tractors is the parent company behind the Landini and has a production capacity to build over 22,000 tractors annually Argo distributes its tractors through 2,500 dealers all over the world Argo Tractors is owned by the Morra family Initially starting out building agricultural implements over time the company has come to acquire the three tractor brands Argo’s main business is Landini and McCormick while Valpadana is small specialised tractors which are mainly built for the Italian market Both Landini and McCormick are both assembled together on the same production lines often appearing as every second tractor on the line we visited Argo’s manufacturing facility at Fabbrico This is in fact the very same location where blacksmith Giovanni Landini began his business he was the pioneer behind the Landini tractor brand – but more about that later The Fabbrico facility is Argo’s headquarters and main tractor assembly plant the site is 130,000m2 with 60,000m2 (14.8 acres) of it under roof The McCormick on the left is awaiting a bonnett badge while the tractor on the right is awaiting roof worklights it was interesting to see that both Landini and McCormick are assembled together on the same production lines The only difference between the brands is cosmetic the widely spoken of supply chain issues and component shortages became a reality all of which were waiting on certain components for completion “Our strategy is to be tractor specialists “We want our dealers to continue to have the freedom to sell whatever implements they choose and work best for them in their area “We are a family company with a very short chain of command we pride ourselves in being responsive and make decisions quickly but this is growing and we have big plans with our higher horsepower tractors starting with the launch of a new 130hp to 150hp range with an in-house-designed transmission in early 2022.” Argo has capacity to build 120 cabs each day they said: “We see potential with electrification and are looking at introducing a family of specialised hybrid tractors in the near future “Because we are tractor specialists and we want to have the best We will adopt when our suppliers develop a solution.” “In terms of the supply chain issues highlighted above the duo said: “You visited the factory at a time when the number of tractors that don’t make it off the production line fully finished is much higher than normal Argo processes 600,000 parts orders each year “Supply chain issues are present everywhere but there are signs of things starting to improve “We are lucky that we build a lot of our own components ourselves but with specialised outsourced components it has been a daily struggle with component suppliers.” This Landini is awaiting a bonnet for completion Landini accounts for two-thirds of Argo’s total production The McCormick brand can be traced to the 1830s in the US when Cyrus Hall McCormick set up the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company merged with the Deering Harvester Company to form the International Harvester Company (IHC) Tractor production started in 1906 and the company set up the International Harvester Company of Great Britain the company purchased the site at Doncaster in England The McCormick-Deering tractors were renamed to just McCormick the tractors were later renamed International starting with the launch of a new 130-150hp range with a new in-house designed transmission in early 2022” International Harvester later sold off its Ag division in 1985 and renamed the company The agricultural division was sold to Case and combined to form the Case IH tractor division Case IH decided to merge with New Holland to form CNH it’s understood Case IH was forced to sell some of its assets and production capacity the McCormick Tractors International Ltd company was established in 2000 The initial assets of McCormick were the Case IH tractor manufacturing plant in Doncaster and the rights to the Case IH ranges; C Case IH sold the Versatile brand in Canada to Buhler industries explained Simone Morro from the board of directors Argo acquired the Doncaster plant and formed today’s McCormick business as we know it at the beginning of 2001 which was the headquarters of the McCormick brand All McCormick tractor production was then subsequently moved to the site we visited at Fabbrico This McCormick is awaiting a side grill for completion Figures from the Irish Bulletin of Vehicle and Driver Statistics show there are 2,954 Landini tractors taxed on our roads with it being the seventh most popular brand in Ireland accounting for 3.75% of all Irish tractors Argo builds tractors from 35hp to over 300hp with 75% of the tractor value components internally manufactured The report shows that there are 1,024 McCormick tractors currently taxed on our roads meaning the brand is in 13th position and accounts for 1.30% of all Irish tractors According to UK and Ireland business development manager Ben Agar Argo Tractors has big plans to expand its share in both markets “The island of Ireland is a very important market for us We have invested in Ireland by recently announcing extra staff on the ground “We are looking at further dealer appointments next year and will be working even closer with our existing dealers – all family-run businesses and will offer a complete range of updated machines for 2022 including a new 120-150hp tractor range.”
