I'm Kukoo for Coco

Coco Rocha is a US Vogue covergirl, Christian Lacroix and Balenciaga and D&G campaign girl, and somehow still an all-around nice, down-to-earth girl. Coco's first runway season was SS05, where she walked for JUST 3 shows. Her next season, FW06, brought Coco to about 15 more runways. And somehow between FW06 and SS07, Coco flew to the top - for the SS07 season she appeared in nearly every top designer show, including Marc Jacobs/Marc by Marc Jacobs, Alexander McQueen, Givenchy, Gucci, Valentino, and others. Since then she's kept her place up there on the top, by frequently appearing in US Vogue and other top magazines as well as some fantastic campaigns.
