[edit] Modelling career

In 2003, Huntington-Whiteley was still studying at Tavistock College when was discovered, turning up for work experience as a booker at model agency Profile, based in London's West End. She was immediately signed up by Profile Model Agency. She had never even considered becoming a model because she didn't think she was pretty enough.[4] It didn't take long, work started to flood in. She appeared on Teen Vogue, Vogue Nipon and soon, she was working with household names such as Paul Smith, Tommy Hilfiger and BCBG Max Azria. She said she was determined to make it all the way to the top.[3]

Huntington-Whiteley currently appears on the catalogues for Bloomingdale's[5] and is a prominent model for Victoria's Secret PINK line, aimed at college aged girls. Her debut on the Victoria's Secret runway came in 2006 where she walked the Los Angeles runway amongst some of the world's top fashion models including Gisele Bündchen, Karolina Kurkova and Adriana Lima. She featured in a behind the scenes video diary with fellow Victoria's Secret model, Miranda Kerr.[6] Currently, Rosie is working as the new face of British brand Burberry and will appear in their Fall/Winter 2008 campaign; she has also shot a campaign for D&G Underwear, also due in the Fall.
