The Cut crunched the numbers to find the model who walked in the most shows during New York, London, Milan, and Paris Fashion Weeks — and, surprisingly — it’s a tie. Models Nastya Sten and Manuela Frey, both from the agency Society, each walked in 63 shows this season. While they walked many of the same runways, including 3.1 Phillip Lim, Michael Kors, Peter Pilotto, Dolce & Gabbana, and Acne, each woman had standout moments of her own: Frey opened four shows and closed two; Sten also opened four shows but closed only Chanel.

We gathered some information on both Frey and Sten to learn more about where they’re from, their signature styles — and hidden talents. Read below and then click through the slideshow to see their top runway moments from the month.
