Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Model

Born April 18, 1987 in Devon, England, GB

Rosie Hungtington-Whiteley's interest in the fashion industry began as a desire to work behind the camera, or as a booker or agent. In 2003, she applied at Profile Model Management for an internship, but got asked to sign on as a model instead. Immediately, she began to model locally and signed with Women Model Management the following year. Huntington-Whiteley’s first year of professional modeling involved working with fashion moguls like Nicole Miller, Vivienne Tam, Tommy Hilfiger and Bruce Weber. In 2005, she modeled for the Victoria’s Secret catalog, and made an appearance in the Victoria's Secret annual fashion show. Hungtington-Whiteley also became the spokesperson for their Victoria’s Secret PINK line in 2007. Her other campaigns have included high-profile companies such as Tommy Hilfiger, Paul Smith, BCBG Max Azria, Clinique and Burberry. She was named Model of the Year at the 2009 Elle Style Awards.
