In addition to appearing on the covers of Vogue Italia[5] and Harper's Bazaar UK, she has appeared in multiple beauty advertisements for Bobbi Brown, Gucci, Laura Mercier, NARS Cosmetics, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Tom Ford, for which models.com ranks her as a "Money Girl".[6] She has done editorials for WSJ,[7] Vogue Japan, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire, Interview, V, and Vogue Paris.
