This precious gem is from Perth, Australia and she is only 16. Young, as she may seem, Gemma Ward has already walked the catwalk for Chloe, YSL Rive Gauche, Prada and Versace.
She participated in Ford's Supermodel Of The World competition in Australia last year but unfortunately didn`t make it past the first rounds. It`s just recently that things have taken off for her.
She signed with IMG in New York on September 2003, and they sent her video off to Prada. The agency had immediately booked her for their Spring 2004 show and she` s been making her way into the fashion spotlight ever since.
She appeared recently on the cover of British Vogue posing with Lily Cole, a rising star from Britain, their cute porcelain-doll looks attracting designers like Miuccia Prada, Alexander McQueen and Julien Macdonald falling out of themselves to book them.
