Though she began her career in Fall of 2008, it wasn’t Britt Maren the modeling world originally met; it was Maren Stavinoha. With an agency switch came her moment and the buzz began as Britt Maren was born. She stole the hearts of designers and editors all over when she opened the Alexander Wang Spring 2011 collection and continued her stellar season by walking for Marc Jacobs, Donna Karan, Rodarte, and Michael Kors in New York before taking off for Europe. While abroad, she chopped off her eight inches of her long locks and dyed them platinum blonde to walk for Balenciaga!
Raised in Texas, she’s a Swede born Southern gal who credits Jane Birkin as her style icon. It was small modeling moments in Houston that gave her a start in the industry, but Alex Wang’s runway truly launched her career. In a short period of time, she graced the pages of Vogue, scoring a major accomplishment for a fresher face.
In an interesting turn of events, Britt appeared backstage at the Alexander Wang Fall 2011 show with brunette locks! From girl #1 for Wang to a platinum blonde at Balenciaga to a brunette maven back at Wang, it’s a perfect circle of hair situations.
