The Artistic Musician Turned Amatory Model

She once dreamed of being a eminent musician, gracing the theaters with fantastic music from her piano, saxophone, and flute. But rather than being on stage for a magnificent concerto, German brunette Manon Von Gerkan swayed her hips, displayed her faultless figure, and walked on a platform called the catwalk.

Manon really had no desire of becoming a fashion mannequin until one model scout observed her and offered her some modeling stints. Her claim to fame was like every model’ --an alluring countenance, a pair of long legs, and a perfect-curve body. Abandoning her magnificent dream of becoming a music master, she entered the vibrant world of fashion and modeling and submitted herself to become a loyal disciple.

Like other top fashion models, Manon had an exquisite experience being the cover girl of various exalted fashion magazines like Glamor, Elle, Vogue, and Swimsuit Edition of Sports Illustrated. Along with her notable magazine publicity, she appeared in several advertisements of Victoria’'s Secret, Adrienne Vittadini, and L'Oreal. Her runway escapades include various catwalk shows for shining designers such as Barbara Bui, Donna Karan, Marina Spadafora, Moschino, Angela Missoni, Laura Biagiotti, and Gianfranco Ferré.

Though she had no chance of displaying in length her musical inventiveness, she however succeeded in startling the fashion world with her charming overall projection; that, in itself, is called artistry.
