Lara Stone, born Lara Catherina Stone on December 20, 1983, is a well-known Dutch model. Known to have both Dutch and British ancestry, she was discovered by a modeling scout when she was 14 years old while she and her family were on vacation at Paris Metro. A year after, she joined the Elite Model Look competition but unfortunately wasn’t able to win. But despite not winning the said competition, she was able to pull out the attention of the Elite executives, which gave her opportunity to become one of the models of the Elite Modeling Agency. After years of working with the Elite Modeling Agency, she left and transferred to IMG Models in 2006. She was eventually highlighted in some of the notable fashion shows for prestigious designers including Isabel Marant, Fendi, Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Christopher Kane, Giles Deacon, and many other designers.
One with a perfect, statuesque body, Lara was once asked about her typical fitness regimen. Interestingly, this super attractive model is a pure ‘hater’ of exercise. But she admitted that she does exercise for compliance– not that she enjoys doing it in the first place. According to her during her interview with Swide, “I just started yoga, although I also tried Bikram yoga last week and I almost vomited. You have to be upside down and there is sweat streaming off people like a waterfall, and you have to pay for it!”
She added that she does not restrict herself both in exercise and diet. “If I’m being too strict with myself on diet and fitness routines, then it gets too stressful,” said Lara. “You start to punish yourself if you can’t stick to the rules. So I do half of what I would ideally like to do. That way, my goals are realistic and I can be more positive.”
