Les Femmes: Abbey Lee Kershaw


Today, Les Femmes is about a living legend. The model presented today is the one & only:


Abbey Lee Kershaw. A very familiar name within the modeling world. Very familiar, indeed. Ranked as the worlds ninth best female model she's surely one to count on in practically every fashion-happening. However she's not only the ninth best model in the world, she's also the 21st best payed model in the world! Thereby she doesn't only have beauty, but quite plenty of money too.

Abbey Lee was born in Melbourne, Australia, on the 12th of June 1987. However it was not until 2004 that her modeling skills was to be discovered. By participating & actually winning an australian modeling competition called Girlfriend Model Search she started up what was soon to be one of the worlds most successful careers in our time.

This girls client-list is surely one of the longest. Her first modeling job on the higher levels was for W Magazine in January 2008. She's ever since worked fiercely for several other big magazines like Numero, several Vogues, i-D & more. A few labels she's been shot for are Gucci [whom she's been in campaigns for 8 times at a total!], cK, Donna Karan, Tom Ford & Mulberry.

At a height of 180 centimeters Abbey Lee has also walked on the runway for quite a few. Tom Ford, Michael  Kors & Chanel for example.

Now, what's your opinion about Abbey Lee Kershaw? Worth the ranking as the ninth best model in the world? Tell me your opinions in comments!

  2. She is very pretty. I don't know much about the modelling world, so these posts are really interesting to me.

    I hope her career stays just as successful, she has a good portfolio of work.

  3. I think she is a very great model, but I think her face does the work rather than her poses.

  4. I actually don't like this model. o: I just don't see a hidden beauty in her, just a skinny girl. :/
