Introducing Claudia Schiffer - Profile and Photos
Profile: Claudia Schiffer
Born on August 25th 1970, in Dusseldorf, Germany, Claudia
is a supermodel of international recognition. Claudia was raised in Dusseldorf
to a homemaker mom and lawyer dad. As a child growing up, Claudia did not
wish to become a model, but rather an attorney and work in her father's successful
law firm. Her modeling career started in 1987 when she was discovered in a
German discotheque while still a student. It was not long before she landed
the coveted Guess. Claudia has taken the term supermodel to a new dimension,
this international superstar has graced the covers of hundreds of magazines.
Claudia has also been featured on the cover of Time Magazine and was the first
model ever to be featured on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine's "10
Most Beautiful Women". She was also named one of People Magazine's "25
Most Beautiful People". Claudia has strutted the runways for all the
top designers and has been featured in campaigns for Chanel, Versace, Valentino
and Ralph Lauren, among others. She is the first and only model to have her
wax likeness in the Grevin Museum in Paris. Claudia has also published two
books - a pictorial entitled "Memories" and a black & white
coffee table book photographed by designer Karl Lagerfeld. Claudia also created
a series of exercise videos with her personal trainer Kathy Kaehler, "Claudia
Schiffer's Perfectly Fit" in a four part series. She also had a 4 year
Revlon contract worth $6 million, where she had to work 30 days each year
for Revlon. She posed nude with Sylvester Stallone for Gianni Versace's china
collection, a very interesting piece of work. With a very hectic work schedule,
Claudia makes her home on Monaco.
