Between high school, basketball, volleyball, hunting, fishing and just being a kid, 15-year-old Kendra Anderson is out making the high-fashion scene, too, even if the Kalispell youngster never expected to.
Anderson is a freshman honor student at Flathead High School who also happens to be a six-foot blonde back from her latest modeling job.

She recently flew to New York City with her mother, Bobbie Anderson, for a shoot with photographer Mikael Jansson and stylist Karl Templer. Both are well-known names in the fashion industry.
Anderson said her mother goes with her on all of her shoots.
Called out to work with three other young aspiring models, Anderson was hired to help model Salvatore Ferragamo's spring 2012 collection. Anderson appears in the latest issue of Interview, a magazine started by Andy Warhol in 1969. It has been called the "Crystal Ball of Pop Culture."

It was Anderson's biggest shoot to date and one of the first sessions to cause her to miss a day of school, something that made her mom leery. But after seeing the resumés of Jansson and Templer, her mom said she was ultimately persuaded to go along with the shoot. They flew out on a Wednesday night, did the shoot on Thursday and flew back to Kalispell on Friday.
"I was almost sad to leave this time because I had a volleyball game I had to miss," Anderson said of her latest modeling adventure and what she had to give up to do it.

Anderson was "discovered" by the modeling industry about three years ago. A scout saw her in Oregon while she was on a family vacation that included a stop at the Tillamook cheese factory. The scout, a former model, happened to be in Oregon for a camping trip. She made her husband turn their car around when she caught sight of Kendra at a gas station. "I was a little flip with her," Bobbie Anderson said of the chance encounter with the scout and her initial skepticism.

Kendra never signed on with the scout's modeling agency. But she did decide to send out some photographs, just to see what would happen. She got quick responses from several big agencies.
"It was cute," Bobbie Anderson said of her then-12-year-old daughter. "She was like, ‘So does this mean I'm going to be on America's Next Top Model?' I said, no, dear. You kind of went right past that."
Anderson's only modeling experience up to that point was doing a hair show with Soucie & Soucie in Kalispell when she was 11 years old.

Anderson later spent her 14th birthday as a model in a Guess by Marciano runway show in Los Angeles. She auditioned thinking she would never get a spot.
"It was really entertaining and at the end of the show all the models and cast sang happy birthday. It was really, really cool," she said.

Even Paul Marciano, the co-founder of Guess, came up after the show. He pinched and kissed Kendra's cheeks, looked to the others standing around and said, "You all should be so beautiful," before walking off.
"It was like, oh, wow. I've seen you in magazines and stuff. Hi," Anderson said.
She has been learning the ropes of the industry in something called model development. She recently signed on with New York Models and is now listed as one of the agency's fresh faces.
Many companies in the fashion industry want their models to be at least 16 years old. So with her next birthday, Kendra said she hopes to do more runway and high-fashion modeling as a way to make some money to pay for college.

Right now, she said she's torn between wanting to go to college to be a lawyer and wanting to be a writer.
There's much more to life than being glamorous. Pointing to her chipped fingernails, she added that she's holding off on any more modeling jobs for the next month or so.
"Basketball," she said, adding that she's been out practicing. "That's my plan for right now. I'm going to wait because I want to do basketball tryouts on the 21st. I hope I make the team. It's like modeling only comes second to basketball."

Anderson - happy to be a kid in the Flathead Valley - said she also likes writing and reading and going hunting and fishing, two other hobbies that she loves.
"She's a Montana girl here at home and then when she goes there she gets to be a diva," her mom said.

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome.

The 'Interview' pic is lovely.......quietly intense.
Because of the total minamilistic look of the polas above, something screams Calvin Klein exclusive. Also there is something very European about Kendra's look and I was surprised to see she was from the USA.
Good luck with your career btw

Interesting features, youthful and obvious. Something that sold me on Charlotte Hoyer and Kori Richardson back in the days. Would love to see some more focus and emotions in her eyes but 15 is still quite young... so it should come in time.

OMG Danni is a super sleuth! Yes; originally I was signed with Ford LA. The shots with Navis were my second test shoot ever.... I was 13. The penguin shot I was also 13.

 

[Riseup]

Balenciaga exclusive anyone?

I try, I try.

I'm not sure about the audio in this video, but you look great nonetheless.
