Connie Chiu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Connie Chiu (b. 1969) is a Chinese albinistic fashion model.

Chiu was born in Hong Kong to a Chinese family. Like many people with albinism, she had to wear sunglasses to protect her photosensitive eyes from the sunlight, and was often sunburned, so as a result her family moved to Sweden when she was seven.

At age 25, Chiu began modelling for fashion photographers such as Terry Richardson, Paul Burley, Heidi Niemala, and Morten Smidt. Chiu later studied journalism.

Chiu starred in the music video for the single "Stalker" by Recoil, the solo project of Depeche Mode member Alan Wilder.
