Named Model of the Year by Elle and Marie Claire, and recognized by Vogue Paris and Vogue Italia as one of the top models of all time, she has walked for every major fashion house and appeared in leading global campaigns and covers.
Known as the “Queen of Pose,” Coco is regarded as one of the most technically proficient models of her generation.

A pioneer of digital influence, she was the first high fashion model to fully embrace social media, earning recognition from Time magazine and TikTok as a leading voice in fashion.
An outspoken advocate for model rights, Coco played a key role in passing New York legislation protecting underage models.
