Long before she became the first daughter/advisor to the President and judge on her father’s show The Apprentice, Ivanka Trump made a name for herself as a model.
Ivanka first got into modeling as a teenager and, according to Vanity Fair, was one of the first famous kids to sign with a modeling agency. She was signed to Elite Model Management’s celebrity division joining the likes of Jenny McCarthy, Drew Barrymore and Ashley Judd.
During her career as a model, Ivanka would appear in an ad campaign for Tommy Hilfiger and walk the runway for fashion designers including Zang Toi, Vivienne Westwood and Theirry Mugler.
Take a look back at Ivanka’s modeling days.
