Josephine Skriver is a successful model with an unusual and vibrant destiny. Thanks to her magnificent figure, the beautiful blonde managed to realize the dream of many girls from the catwalk and become one of the angels of the Victoria's Secret lingerie company.
Childhood model
The biography of the future catwalk star began in a very unusual way. The girl was born in Copenhagen in 1993. Her parents were a gay and lesbian gay couple. The young people met on an ad and did not plan a marriage, but after a successful conception and birth of a child, they decided to raise the baby together. At the same time, father and mother Josephine had their own partners and an absolutely independent personal life. They were united by the main thing - love for a charming daughter. Josephine owes her appearance to a bizarre mixture of blood: her mother is Danish, and her father is Dutch.
Growing up Josephine perceived an unusual family situation absolutely calmly. She loved her mother and father equally, had a tender affection for her younger brother Oliver and made friends with the "spare" parents - real partners. Later, the model told the ubiquitous reporters that her childhood was very happy: the girl grew up in love, was healthy, active, self-confident. Neighbors and friends were calm about the unusual family, Josephine had no problems at school either. She studied well, but did not show much zeal for science. But the girl was very interested in travel, she wanted to see the world outside her native Denmark.
Carier start
Josephine got to the first photo session in her life as an infant. Parents included their daughter in the database of a children's modeling agency, and soon young Skriver was chosen to advertise diapers. The adorable blonde baby not only looked great in the photo, but also behaved impeccably in front of the camera, earning the approval of managers and photographers.
Growing up, Josephine turned into a real fashion model: tall and long-legged. The girl studied at a modeling school for some time, and at the age of 15 she began performing at shows. Angel-like appearance, perfect figure, blonde hair and huge blue eyes fully corresponded to the wishes of fashion houses, moreover, the young fashion model turned out to be very photogenic. However, it was impossible to make an international career in Denmark, and soon Josephine moved to New York. Here she signed a contract with one of the major agencies and began her ascent to professional heights.
The beginning of her modeling career was more than successful. Immediately after the move, the young model received several interesting offers from leading designers, and already in 2011, Josephine opened and closed the Prada and Alberta Ferretti shows. Josephine traveled extensively, taking part in shows held in Milan and Paris. She was invited to prestigious shows by Dior, Valentino, Versase, Chanel, Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Victoria Beckham, Emilio Pucci, Etro, Trussardi, Roberto Cavalli, Moschino. The girl starred in commercials a lot, taking part in the campaigns of H&M, Vero Moda, Karen Millen, Tom Ford. She has several covers of leading fashion magazines: Elle, Harper's Basaar, Vanity Fair, Vogue.
Thanks to her magnificent figure, Josephine collaborated a lot with lingerie brands, taking part in shows and presentations, as well as acting in commercials. In 2016, an event happened that Skiver had been waiting for from the very beginning of her modeling career. A fragile blonde with endless legs and a perfect figure was included among the "angels" of the Victoria's Secret lingerie company. For the first time in the company's catalog, photo models appeared back in 2013, after which there were numerous shows and shows. After 3 years, Josephine received the status of an official "angel" and the wings with which she paraded on the catwalk. This contract brought the girl not only an impressive amount, but also fame: the number of invitations to prestigious shows has increased. In the future, the model has other lucrative contracts with clothing and cosmetics manufacturers.
Josephine is actively involved in promoting a healthy lifestyle, she maintains an instagram, where she talks about her own beauty secrets, proper nutrition and the nuances of working as a model. Today she has about 5 million subscribers. The girl devotes a lot of time to the fight for LGBT rights. She says in an interview that as a child she did not experience problems because of her unusual family, but after moving to the United States, she faced rejection and misunderstanding. The model is confident that she will be able to contribute to ensuring that people with a non-traditional orientation are perceived as full-fledged members of modern society.
Personal life
The model has always had many fans, but it became known about a serious relationship only in 2013, when Josephine met Alexander Deleon, a twenty-six-year-old musician and businessman. The boyfriend turned out to be very romantic, he often spoiled his girlfriend with gifts, flowers, unexpected surprises.
After 5 years, it became known about the official engagement. The musician made the proposal very effectively: on the ice of a frozen lake in Finland. Josephine herself admitted that a trip to the Finnish lakes has always been her cherished dream. The groom presented the bride with a ring with a huge diamond and immediately received consent. On the day of the engagement, the musical group, in which DeLeon performed, released a song dedicated to his bride.
