Just weeks after signing with Your Angels Models[2] Monrose began working with Wilhelmina in New York and Silent models in Paris.[3] Debuting during the S/S 2011 collections in New York, Monrose has since walked the runway for top designers including Michael Kors, Bottega Veneta, Lanvin, Miu Miu, and Yves Saint Laurent.[4] After her first runway season Monrose was named a top 10 new face by Style.com,[5] Models.com,[6] and COACD.[7] In July 2011 Monrose left Wilhelmina for Silent models, which now represents her in both New York and Paris.[8]
