Coco landed the March 2006 cover and there began her start into fashion history. Coco has appeared on the runways for Marc Jacobs, Versace, Prada, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Anna Sui, Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel, Balenciaga and countless others. Coco opened the fall 2007 Jean Paul Gaultier show by performing an Irish dance down the runway. She has appeared in top fashion magazines such as Vogue (US, Paris, Italia, Nkppon, British and Korea), Harper's Bazaar, W, Numero, Another, V, ID and Dazed and Confused and has worked with leading photographers such as David Sims, Craig McDean, Greg Kadel, Patrick Demarchelier, Mario Sorrenti, Inez & Vinoodh, Arthur Elgort, Nick Knight and Peter Lindberh.
