Since bursting into the spotlight in 2001, She has campaigned for Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Euphoria, Gucci and Miss Sixty. Her Cinderella story of going from poverty into modeling glamour has also created great buzz about her<img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19280.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19280.jpg" style="width: 368px; height: 277px;" /> <br /> <br />Natalia Vodianova was born on February 28, 1982, in Gorky, Russia. She lived with her mother and two half-sisters under meager and tough conditions. The poor lifestyle was a result of Soviet Union's road to collapse and its aftermath. The political and economic conditions took a harsh toll on Natalia's family, as she had to start working at the age of eleven. Natalia and her family sustained eachother with a fruit stall business. <br /><a name="more"></a> <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19274.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19274.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-in; width: 371px; height: 458px;" /> <br />At age 15, Vodianova enrolled in a modeling academy, where she learned ladylike behavior and etiquette. Fortunately, she also went to casting opportunities, and one day, she caught the eye of a scouting agent from Paris. He told her that a great future was in store for her; all she had to do was learn English in three months. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19275.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19275.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-in; width: 391px; height: 476px;" /> <br />Convinced that her life could change for the better, Vodianova did just that. At 17, she moved to Paris to try her hand at modeling. Delighted to work, she was a dream client for the Viva agency and was an inspired woman. Though her salary was small at her first, it was still much more than what she was earning in her native Russia. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19278.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19278.jpg" style="width: 384px; height: 289px;" /> <br />When she was 19 years old, she made much headway in modeling but still had not made it big. For some time, she was distracted however, after falling in love and marrying British real-estate heir Justin Portman. She gave birth to son Lucas before the lavish wedding in St. Petersburg, and for an instant, her career looked bleak. Fortunately, these distractions did not sway her: she roamed the runways for several fall collections and astounded so many that she headlined the Yves Saint Laurent show that same year. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19269.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19269.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-in; width: 414px; height: 510px;" /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19277.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19277.jpg" style="width: 393px; height: 295px;" /> <br />Soon, Vodianova's phone was ringing off the hook. Gucci made her the new face for their perfume line after she had more than 40 runway shows under her belt, and then Calvin Klein called to hire her for their big Spring show. She was officially the hot new face in town and even made a brief appearance in Roman Coppola's film CQ with Billy Zane and Gerard Depardieu. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19279.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19279.jpg" style="width: 387px; height: 289px;" /> <br />Now, with campaigns for Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs and Miss Sixty to her name, Vodianova is a true supermodel. She has done it all, from Vogue covers to big-name fashion shows. The media loves her not only for her "real" look, but because her story is so inspiring. Living in New York with her husband and son, Vodianova is already poised to take over the whole modeling world with her charm and sex appeal. In July 2007, Vodianova was featured the cover of American Vogue as the solo subject, a considerable feat during an era that relies heavily on celebrity cover subjects to push sales. She first appeared on the cover along with eight other top models in September 2005. The only other models to have singularly graced the cover of US Vogue in between those two issues have been Linda Evangelista and Liya Kebede. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19282.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19282.jpg" style="width: 388px; height: 291px;" /> <br />According to Forbes, Vodianova is ranked as the seventh highest-earning model in the world after Carolyn Murphy, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Heidi Klum, Kate Moss and Gisele Bundchen. Her earnings for the past year were in the order of $4.5 million. <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19276.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19276.jpg" style="width: 413px; height: 309px;" /> <br />Campaigns: <br />Anna Molinari, Calvin Klein, Calvin Klein 'Euphoria Blossom' Fragrance, Chanel, Choice by Calvin Klein Underwear, Compagnia Italia, Calvin Klein ?Euphoria? fragrance, Giorgio Armani, Gucci, Gucci fragrance, Jacques Dessange, Jigsaw, LaSposa, L'Oreal, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Miss Sixty, Moschino, Pepe Jeans, Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti, Rocco Barocco, Swish jeans, Versus <br /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19267.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19267.jpg" style="width: 406px; height: 304px;" /> <br />Covers: <br /></div> Vogue China, Vogue Germany, Vogue Greece, Vogue Italy, Vogue Japan, Vogue Korea, Vogue Mexico, Vogue Russia, Vogue US, Vogue UK, W, Vogue Teen, i-D, GQ, DT, Chic, Telva, Photo, Elle, Matie Claire, Numero<img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19266.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19266.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-in; width: 376px; height: 527px;" /><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19273.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-19273.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-in; width: 391px; height: 483px;" /> <br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-105533.jpg" src="http://www.stud-center.com/wallpaper/natalia-vodianova/natalia-vodianova-105533.jpg" style="width: 350px; height: 262px;" /></div> <!-- Below is the AtContent repost button code.
