Jacquelyn Jablonski

Jablonski, who is of Polish, German, and Irish descent, grew up in Fair Haven, New Jersey and graduated from Rumson-Fair Haven High School in 2008. She was scouted at a café where she worked. When she was 15, her mother took her to agencies in New York City, where Ford Models immediately offered a contract. In September 2007, Jablonski walked her first fashion show in New York for Brian Reyes. Shortly after, she participated at Ford's Supermodel of the World and finished 2nd runner-up tied with competitor Alexina Graham from the United Kingdom. Jablonski skipped both fashion weeks in the 2009-season to focus on school but still accepted some modeling assignments like walking the Emanuel Ungaro pre-fall show in January 2009. In September 2009, she walked 58 shows during the Spring/Summer 2010 season, which meant her breakthrough in the fashion industry. She went on to become the most booked model during New York Fashion Week in the next season, walking 31 shows.
