Once in a while, a very talented and unique model comes into focus who possesses the grace and poise to excel in all facets of the fashion world. A killer walk, flawless physique, and signature 'death stare' have catapulted a teenager from Missouri into the international spotlight in just two short years.
At only 17 years-old, Karlie Kloss has become a true supermodel, walking for designers like Givenchy, John Paul Gaultier, Valentino, Oscar de la Renta and Armani Prive. She is definitely accustomed to couture, as well as opening and closing the some of the most anticipated shows every season.
Karlie has accumulated numerous print ads since signing with her first agency at the age of 15. She became one of the faces of Dolce & Gabbana this year, has had editorials in several international publications, and most recently has become the face of the Lola by Marc Jacobs fragrance. Karlie's popularity was put into focus when she changed agencies from Elite Model Management to Next Models in January of 2008, when Elite sued Next claiming they offered her improper compensation as incentive (rumored to translate to sore feelings).
Her talent is paralleled by models that have been in the business for decades, and her fresh face with trademark birthmark give her a unique and down-to-earth look. I am convinced that Karlie Kloss could sell me anything, whether I can afford it or not. Not surprisingly, Lola is on my holiday wish-list. The fragrance's vibrant, floral sweetness is complimented by a vanilla musk undertone, resulting a seductive and playful mix. Plus, the bottle is really cute.
