Fantastic Mrs. Fox: 8 models with red hair
Successful red-haired models can be counted on the fingers: it is much easier for designers, stylists and photographers to work with blondes, blonde and brown-haired women. Take at least the Mulberry FW 2012 show: all three dozen bows were supposed to demonstrate red-haired mannequins, but most wore wigs. Look At Me lists 8 models that can afford to keep natural red hair or repaint it from time to time.
Karen elson
Karen Elson in Encyclopedia Look At Me
It is not known how Karen Elson would have had her modeling career if in 1997 photographer Stephen Meisel had not persuaded her to dye her hair red and shave her eyebrows to film the cover of Italian Vogue. Since then, fiery hair and bleached eyebrows have become a trademark of the British fashion model, which for the past fifteen years has been the face of Chanel, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent and a dozen other brands, has been shot for countless covers and opened and closed many times. In addition to fashion, Karen has music: since 2004, she has performed with The Citizens Band cabaret troupe, and in 2010 released the debut album The Ghost Who Walks, produced by her now ex-husband Jack White of The White Stripes and The Dead Weather.
Lily cole
Obviously, Stephen Meisel is not indifferent to the red-haired girls: Lily Cole's English career also began with his shooting for the Italian Vogue. A little later, Lily appeared in the Prada advertising campaign, which, as you know, is the key to a successful start for each novice model. Miuccia Prada’s offer was followed by the covers of Elle and Vogue, contracts with Moschino and Tiffany & Co. In 2006, Lily began to act in films, on her account the films “Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” and “Phantasmagoria: Visions of Lewis Carroll”, as well as an episode in the series “Doctor Who”. Now Cole, who graduated from the University of Cambridge in the summer, gets more and more roles and is less and less removed for magazines and walks on the runway.
Coco Rocha

Canadian Coco Rocha came into the modeling business in 2006 and almost immediately became the muse of the same Stephen Meisel. He photographed it for the Dolce & Gabbana campaign and the cover of the Italian Vogue, after which they signed an exclusive contract to work together. However, then Koko was a brunette. For five years of working as a fashion model, she then became a blonde, then returned to her natural color. But her shooting with red hair for publications like Numero or Vogue was remembered better than others. By the way, Rocha keeps a blog about his life at Oh-so-coco.tumblr.com.
Cynthia dicker
Cynthia Dyker, a light-haired, red-haired Brazilian woman with freckles, was spotted as a scout by a modeling agency back in 2001. The girl has become famous as a commercial model: she has advertising for Dsquared2, L'Oreal and Moschino, covers for Glamor, Elle and Marie Claire, as well as shooting in lookbooks and advertising campaigns of underwear brands.
Chantal Staffor Abbot
A native of Montreal, Chantal Staffor Abbot began working as a model while she was still at school. In 2009, she made her debut at Issey Miyake, Maison Martin Margiela and Yohji Yamamoto shows, a year later she became one of the champions of the season, making thirty shows at once, and during the last Fashion Weeks she participated in 43 defiles. The girl is not torn apart by editors and advertisers, but her shots often appear in Pop, i-D, French Revue des Modes, Flair and Vogue.
Olga Scherer
Olga Sherer is one of the most famous models from Belarus. In 2005, she made her debut on the Issey Miyake show in Paris, and then made itself felt only in 2007, when she opened the shows of Dior and Marc Jacobs. Since then, the girl has signed one contract after another: she has been the face of Bottega Veneta, D & G, Herve Leger, Kenzo and Lanvin and participates in dozens of shows every season.
Louise bianchine
At first, a red-haired German with a demonic appearance, Louise Bianhin, attracted the attention of editors of independent journals such as D, Flair, Gray, Vestal, and 160g. Later, the girl, who became one of the main new models of 2010, began to offer more commercial shooting, as a result of her photos appeared in Elle and Vogue. During the past Fashion Week, Louise went on the show Frankie Morello, Marc Jacobs and Emilio Pucci, and later became one of the faces of the Womanier fragrance by the brand Thierry Mugler and appeared in two major shootings - for Italian Vogue and V.
Lydia Willemina Collins
As a teenager, Australian Lydia Villemina Collins worked in her mother’s tattoo salon, and earlier this year, after her eighteenth birthday, she entered the modeling business. The career of a girl with a piercing in the lip and nose began with an exclusive show on Givenchy: especially for the show, stylist Luigi Murenu dyed her hair from chestnut to red. Since then, Lydia, starring for the magazines Dazed & Confused and Vogue, does not change the redhead.
