Coco Rocha

Over the last two decades, Coco Rocha has had a dream career in modeling. She has walked the runway for every major designer and shot covers, editorials and campaigns for the world’s most influential magazines, brands and photographers. Named model of the year by both Elle Magazine and Marie Claire, she was also honored as one of the top 30 models of the decade by French Vogue. Despite her many accolades, Coco has always lived by the truth that success does not need to come at the cost of sacrificing core values or individuality.

Considered the world’s first digital supermodel, Coco defined what it means to be a model in the modern age. As one of the early adopters of social media in fashion, Coco’s presence on social media has gained her over 17 million followers worldwide. In 2013, Time magazine named Coco’s twitter account one of the 140 best twitter feeds. Using her considerable platform, Coco claimed her voice as a force for good and was instrumental in the passage of new laws protecting underage models in New York

Fashion industry fans and contemporaries like Tyra Banks have nicknamed Coco the “Queen Of Pose” as she is known to be one of the most technically proficient and versatile models of the millennium. In 2014 she literally wrote the book on posing when she published a 2000 page encyclopedia named “Study Of Pose” with Harper Collins. The book has gone on to become an industry staple for aspiring and established models

Over the last decade I've watched Coco Rocha set the bar for the next generation in both proficiency and skill in front of the camera and business acumen behind the scenes. As one of the great models of the new millennium she has also shown herself to be a woman who believes wholeheartedly in supporting and helping other women - her mentorship role at Coco Rocha Model Camp is a natural extension of that."

With a passion for educating younger models, Coco famously guest mentored models on “America’s Next Top Model” and starred in the television series “The Face” alongside Karolina Kurkova and Naomi Campbell. Though she was the youngest coach on the interactive competition show, Coco and her team had the overwhelming support of the public, commanding a staggering 70% of the popular vote. Coco also memorably mentored Kendall and Kylie Jenner on their show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” and has privately taught many more of today’s biggest modeling stars their skills in front of the camera and in establishing their personal branding.

For the past 4 years, Coco has made her expertise and knowledge available to a new generation of models via The Coco Rocha Model Camp in New York State. The camp offers a unique and hands-on education by one of the few people in the world who has truly excelled in the industry on her own terms and can “talk the talk” as well as she can “walk the walk”. Students at any stage are taught to refine their posing and runway skills and to develop a strategic business plan. Coco is on hand for the entire experience and available for open and honest discussion and feedback. Camp class sizes are small to allow for personal attention and a truly boutique experience. Coco makes time for multiple camps a year timed around her own busy modeling schedule. Models leave the camp with a unique skill set and the knowledge and proficiency to help them navigate the complicated, challenging and often elusive road to becoming a successful international model.

Industry Testimonials

  • Coco Rocha is the premier model when it comes to pose and movement. She truly brings my clothes to life and always makes modeling seem far easier than it really is. She’s one of the most adventurous models out there, and thats why she’s often the first one I go to to test out new and different ideas. Coco is a model who breaks the stereotype, and here she is creating and pushing the boundaries in one thousand ways. I find that fabulous.

  • Coco Rocha, the first supermodel of the digital era, literally defined what it means to be a successful model in the 2000s. During her 15 years as a model at the top of her game she has developed her craft beyond even an expert level. Many in the industry would agree that she is the most technically capable and entrepreneurial models of the last 20 years. As the reigning 'Queen Of Pose' I can think of no greater teacher for a new generation. As a woman, mother and friend, I know she is the perfect mentor for models looking to take their career to the next level.
