All yours: 10 beginner models from famous families
Text: Sonya Ruppiner
Not all future models are found by scouts during shopping in shopping centers and in crowded airports. As fashion weeks and advertising campaigns show, family ties contribute to a successful career not only in the Russian authorities. The model world is closely watching the younger generation in the families of celebrities and are not averse to giving them exits on the catwalks, good advertising contracts and all this should be covered in the press - after all, additional public attention to brands is never superfluous.
On the other hand, you can’t roll your eyes and say that everything has been bought and that the beautiful saleswoman of bananas from the market in Nizhny Novgorod no longer has a chance to make a modeling career. It is quite logical that the children from the unions of musicians and models go to the podium - after all, sometimes you can’t really argue with the ideality of their genes. They are joined by daughters and relatives of fashion editors, actors, writers, singers and reality stars. With genes here, too, most often complete order.
You should not even strain because the model business is a high-speed market, and even having family ties, it is much more difficult to stay here than to get here. And the ever-growing fashion industry requires more and more new faces - so there will be enough shots and contracts for everyone, no matter if you know your last name half the world or only a couple of hundreds of Facebook friends. We chose 10 models that scouts didn’t look for on the streets.
Lily McMenami
Supermodel Kristen Makmenami She told me that while men were running around the other models of the 1990s, only gays liked her non-standard appearance — which helped her make a dizzying career, given the percentage of gays in the fashion industry. Non-standard features of the mother were also passed on to Lily's daughter - if not more. However, at work, which for the most part is given to her mother's friends - designer Giles Deacon, stylist and editor-in-chief of Love, Katie Grand, Karl Lagerfeld and Edie Sliman, - an unusual appearance does not affect in any way. Lily would have become so popular and would have appeared on the cover of i-D and in the advertising of Marc Jacobs so quickly, sounding her name somehow differently - a big and probably rhetorical question.
Kendall Jenner
Step sister Kim Kardashian at the same time it is similar and not to the main reality star of modern times. Unlike Kim with luxurious forms, Kendall is slim in terms of model, but she, like all enterprising members of the family, already has her own clothing line, Kendall & Kylie, which they launched along with her younger sister Kylie. In February of this year, Kendall participated in shows Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Saint Laurent Paris and, of course, Givenchy (it’s no secret that Kim and Ricardo Tishi are close friends), as well as in an advertisement for Calvin Klein # mycalvins2014. In addition, in March of this year, Jenner appeared in outright bedding for W Magazine - alongside such celebrities as Milla Jovovich, Cindy Crawford, Farrell Williams and Ricardo Tishi. Actually, the girl turned out to be the most unknown of all, because her participation caused a lot of questions - for what merits did the novice and still little-known model get shot with the stars?
Lottie moss
On the account of Lottie Moss There is not a single advertising campaign and any shooting except for one editorial for Dazed & Confused - a publication owned by Jefferson Hack (ex-boyfriend Kate Moss), but it has already been announced as a very promising model. Usually new-faces-models after the first shooting such glory does not wait. Scouts drew attention to Kate Moss's stepbrother several years ago during the wedding of model and musician Jamie Hins. Mario Testino then played the role of a wedding photographer, and 14-year-old Charlotte hit his lens. At the end of last year, now the 16-year-old girl has signed a contract with the agency Storm, her famous sister is also in it.
Bark corre
16-year-old granddaughter of Vivienne Westwood appeared on the podium during the grandmother's London show in February 2014, and six months before that - on the pages of Love magazine. Predict how Cora's career will go further, while it is difficult - it is not in the models.com lists yet. In addition, a model career is not the only choice when you just finished school, your grandmother is a living symbol of British fashion, grandfather is former Sex Pistols manager Malcolm Maclaren, and parents are the founders of the legendary underwear brand Agent Provocateur. Back in 2009, Vivienne admitted that her granddaughter regularly tells her about youth subcultures in school: ready, punks, hippies - and gives advice on collections, so perhaps the future of Corus is not related to the fashion podium.
Langley fox
Langley I Fox - younger sister the successful American model Dri Hemingway, the great-granddaughter of the legendary writer and daughter Mariel Hemingway - actresses and muses Woody Allen. And also - a protégé of Katie Grand, who is known for her ability to pull her favorite models towards lucrative advertising contracts. In February of this year, Langley appeared on the Marc Jacobs, Saint Laurent and Giles shows, and in September 2013 she participated in Louis Vuitton shows. In addition, she starred in a video of Marc Jacobs Perfumes, where she also showed herself as an artist. By the way, the girl got rid of the Hemingway name by chance - she removed it in order to "not feel like a character from a famous story."
Jean campbell
Lady Jean Campbell - If you follow all the rules, then this is the name for the 16-year-old model from the London agency Viva Models. Jean noticed almost the rhinestone: it's hard to stay in the shadows when your first shoot is a Burberry advertising campaign. Jean is the daughter of Lady Isabella Cowdor, the former British fashion editor of Vogue, who is called the woman who brought Scotland back into fashion and made Scottish model Stella Tennant a star. Like many children whose parents are related to the world of fashion, Jean first shot at a very young age - when she was in the lens of Bruce Weber, and then on the pages of the British Vogue with her mother and Stella Tennant against the background of Scottish fields and castles. So far, Jean has only one advertising campaign and one show - both Burberry, and this, as we know, is one of the surest ways to make a successful career for British models.
Olympia Campbell
The younger sister of a successful British model and favorite Katie Grand Eddie Campbell first appeared on the pages of Love back in 2012, but unlike her sister, her career did not develop so rapidly. She became the face of the Marc by Marc Jacobs SS 2013 advertising campaign, and in 2013 appeared on the pages of the British Tatler and French Vogue. Olympia and Eddie, the daughters of the famous British architect Sophie Hicks, and in principle from childhood used to appear on the pages of publications - for example, when Tim Walker or Arthur Elgort filmed turns from the house Hicks for British and Italian Vogue. The last work of the girl - shooting David Sims for the French Vogue. By the way, Olympia calls her fashionable icon, of course, Eddie's sister.
Georgia May Jagger
Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall fate was pre-written to become a model. The genes of one of the most gorgeous fashion models of the 70s and 80s and the most charismatic musician of our time could not let them down. At the moment, Georgia occupies the 24th place in the list of 50 main models according to models.com and is included in the pool of money girls - commercially very successful models. For the first time, the girl was noticed by the Hudson company - in 2009, the 17-year-old model appeared in the lens of Mario Sorrenti and in the advertising of Hudson Jeans - they still have their face and even developed their own jeans design. In addition, Georgia has a promotional contract with the British cosmetics brand Rimmel, which also represents Kate Moss and Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Together with Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Jordan Dunn and Lily Donaldson, the girl took part in the closing ceremony of the London Olympics. In the last weeks of fashion, she participated in shows Fendi, Rag & Bone, Versace and Tom Ford, appeared in the fresh campaigns of Miu Miu and Sisley, and in February decorated the cover of the British Vogue. Her older sister Elizabeth is also a model.
Riley Kio

In 2005, she became the face of the fragrance Miss Dior Chérie, Christian Dior. In 2009 - the face of the Mango autumn-winter collection.
