Birgit Kos (born April 13, 1995) is a Dutch fashion model. She is known for both her work in fashion magazines and on the runway.

Early life[edit]

Kos is Dutch.[4] Born and raised in Overijssel, Kos now resides in Zurich, Switzerland. She says her creative outlet is being active in nature.[5]

Career[edit]

Kos was first scouted while she was 15 in Amsterdam by two local modeling agents.[6][7] After meeting with a modeling agency in the Netherlands, Kos was told that her "hips were too big" to obtain a contract with them.[8] She made her modeling debut during the 2010 Elite Model Look competition a year later, where she represented the Netherlands during the world finals and won a contract with Elite Model Management in Amsterdam. After the competition, she took a few years off to focus on schooling before modeling full-time.[9] Kos lived in Milan for two years in a model apartment to develop her career.[10]

Kos' first magazine cover was for Glamour France's January 2016 issue.[8] In 2017, Kos worked with noted Peruvian photographer Mario Testino.[11]

Kos has appeared in advertisements for Giorgio Armani, Miu Miu, Gap Inc., Calvin Klein, Lanvin, Tom Ford, and Massimo Dutti.[12][13][14] She and Irish actor Jamie Dornan co-starred in a Hugo Boss advertising campaign which included a mini-movie in 2018. Kos said, she would like to do more acting as modeling is not the most secure job.[6][10]

Kos has been on the covers of Vogue Italia, Vogue Brasil, Vogue Japan, Vogue Germany, Vogue Mexico & Latino America, Vogue Netherlands, Vogue Russia and Vogue España.[15][16][17][18][19] Kos appeared alongside Croatian model Faretta in the Spring 2019 campaign for Italian label Twinset.[20]

Runway modeling[edit]

After signing to Elite Worldwide in 2014, Kos made her runway debut in Dolce & Gabbana's Alta Moda Fall 2015 show.[21] In 2016, she exclusively opened Miu Miu's Spring/Summer 2017 show.[22][23] She went on to close Fendi and Hermès' Fall/Winter 2017 shows and open Chloé's show of the same season.[1] In the Spring/Summer 2018 season, Kos closed Tory Burch.[24] In the Fall/Winter 2018 season, Kos closed Blumarine and opened Roberto Cavalli.[25][26] In the Spring/Summer 2019 season, Kos closed Hermès and opened Zimmermann.[27][28]

Kos is currently ranked as one of Models.com's "Top 50 Models".[29]
