Estella is a strawberry blonde vixen,
who is well on her way to fame and fortune and has tons of fans
wanting to catch a glimpse of her. She is an former professional
swimmer who has modeled for Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Edition,
and she can be seen on advertisement billboards everywhere. That's
quite a change for the young model who only few years ago was closer
to going to the Olympic games as a national champion swimmer, than
doing the runways of the Paris catwalk.
The body of a swimmer with the face
of a wayward girl, what could be more alluring. By Estella's own
admission, she likes to prance around nude, and considers clothes
irrelevant. Estella declares, "Coming from a barely clothed
childhood as a swimmer makes me really comfortable with my
body".
Estella Warren was born December 23,
1978, to an elementary school principal mother and an automobile
salesman father. As a professional swimmer, Estella moved to Toronto
at the age of 12 to train with the national synchronized swimming
team. Estella had already been living on her own in Toronto for 4
years, so the move to New York City to pursue a modeling career was
not a difficult one. Her father became her manager and modeling
agent when Estella decided to exchang the pool goggles for high
heels in a very smart career move.
The next thing Estella knew, she was
doing photo shoots with professional fashion photographer Ellen von
Unwerth, and posing for Italian Vogue. As word spread of her beauty,
so did her exposure, and now Estella's beautiful face was on the
covers of the French and Spanish Marie Claire, French, German,
Spanish, and Italian Elle, German GQ, as well as Yahoo Internet
Life.
Estella has appeared in
advertisements for Andrew Marc, Byblos, Manuel Canovas beachwear,
Perry Ellis, Cacharel, De Beers, Samsung notebooks, Cartier, Volvo,
and of course appearances in the Victoria's Secret catalogue. Her
most notable work in advertising is for Chanel, who selected Estella
as the new No. 5 Girl, and she can be seen in ads for the designer
perfume.
Estella hasn't changed much from her
days growing up in the Ontario suburbs, where she had the reputation
as someone who likes to party. When she is not posing for
photographers, Estella enjoys horseback riding, playing the piano,
singing, and of course swimming. She is no stranger to wearing a
swimsuit, and has been featured in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit
Edition, frolicking on the beaches with fellow models, Laetitia
Casta and Heidi
Klum. Estella is presently signed with modeling agencies in
NewYork, Paris, London, and Milan, and this sexy champion supermodel
is looking to take her talents to the silver screen
