Amanda Laine
Birthday: February 12, 1992
Hometown: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Agencies: Supreme, Women
In December 2007, Amanda Laine was just a teenager (albeit a preternaturally tall one) grousing about her skinny legs. Then a model scout spotted her at a basketball game, entered her in V magazine and Supreme Model Management’s V a Model! contest, and next thing you know, she’s walking Alexander Wang in New York. In Europe, her strong jaw and bow-shaped pout stood out at Miu Miu, Alexander McQueen, and Louis Vuitton. It happened so fast, says Laine of her unusually quick rise, and without the stress of waiting for a response from agencies based on your picture. Lucky.
