Career

You are a Supermodel, Cycle 1 was held in 2004 and was won by the then 17-year-old Kahnovich. She refused the first prize, which was an agency contract with NEXT as she already got a more lucrative offer from IMG Models in the time between the show was taped and the final was aired. When her victory was officially announced Ksanovich already moved to Paris.[3] She has since walked fashion shows for names such as Versace, Gucci, Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, and Dolce and Gabbana in New York, Paris, and Milan. She has also walked for Haute Couture shows for Elie Saab, Dior, and Lacroix.

She has been featured in advertisements for DOHC, Gucci, and Richmond, and graced the covers of Cosmopolitan, Madame Figaro, Harper's Bazaar, and Amica and appeared in an editorial for French Vogue and French Marie Claire.
