Coco Rocha
Coco Rocha has a dream career in fashion. Named model of the year by both Elle Magazine and Marie Claire, she was honored as one of the top 30 models of the decade by French Vogue. Despite her many accolades, she has always lived by the truth that success does not need to come at the cost of sacrificing one’s core values or individuality.
Considered the world’s first digital supermodel, Coco’s presence on social media has gained her over 17 million followers worldwide. Using her considerable platform, Coco has claimed her voice as a force for good, and was instrumental in the passage of new laws protecting underage models in New York. Fashion industry contemporaries such as Tyra Banks have nicknamed Coco the “Queen Of Pose”, as she is known to be one of the most technically proficient and versatile models of all time. In 2014, Coco literally wrote the book on posing, when she published a 2000 page encyclopedia named Study Of Pose.
With a passion for educating, Coco famously mentored models in the television series The Face alongside Naomi Campbell and, in 2016, made her years of experience available to a new generation of models via Nomad MGMT, an agency she founded in Miami, LA and Vietnam. In 2018, she opened “The Coco Rocha Model Camp” which offers international models a unique and hands-on education.
Coco lives in New York with her husband and long time collaborator, James Conran, and their two young children, Ioni and Iver.
