Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was always destined for supermodel status. When she first appeared on the fashion scene back in 2003, aged just 16, she immediately landed a Levi’s commercial. It wasn’t long before she was shot by Bruce Weber for the then-cool Abercrombie & Fitch, and her English Rose look made her a shoo-in as a face of Christopher Bailey’s Burberry.
All of those are high profile gigs for any model, but what really elevated Rosie to superstar status was Victoria’s Secret. She made her debut at its 2006 catwalk show alongside Heidi Klum, Miranda Kerr and Gisele Bundchen, an annual event that appears on national television in the US, and was awarded ‘Angel’ status by the brand in 2010.
