Kelsey Van Mook was born on January 14, 1992 in Vancouver, British Columbia. She was scouted at a mall at 14, and shortly after moved to New York to pursue a full-time career. She signed with Next in 2007, but the ball really started rolling in 2009 after she opened the spring Givenchy show in Paris.

In September of that year she took her strut to the catwalks of DKNY, Burberry, Chanel, and Yves Saint Laurent. Kelsey also scored a fragrance contract with Givenchy Dance and became a face of DKNY. Now with spreads in V Magazine and Vogue España, there's more than enough certified proof that this Canadian is on her way to greatness.
