biography
Dutch beauty Irene Hiemstra has a striking face that you won’t forget: she’s got all hollowed cheek bones, pillowed lips, and fierce eyebrows – but combined with that frost-blonde hair and slender frame, she has the aesthetic of a spirited ice queen. Hiemstra has a total of 38 shows under her belt from last season – including Prada, Alexander McQueen, Valentino and Dries Van Noten, as well as an opening slot at Roberto Cavalli. She was featured in the Prada Spring 2013 campaign alongside Irina Kravchenko and Eva Herzigová, shot by Steven Meisel, and has had countless editorials in Vogue Italia, Another Magazine, Dazed & Confused, and Interview Magazine, to name a few. One of few girls who were successful in their determination to become a model, Hiemstra was not discovered, but sent out her own portfolio to agencies in her native Holland. Her futuristic look has drawn the eyes of heavyweight photographers Patrick Demarchelier, Lachlan Bailey, and Peter Lindbergh – we expect to see much more from Hiemstra in the nearest future.
