CZECH BEAUTIES: HANA SOUKUPOVA VICTORIA'S SECRET'S ANGEL

Dear readers of Sport and beauty. We are going to dedicate today’s post to a gorgeous model. She comes from Eastern Europe, from the Czech Republic. Perhaps she’s not as famous as Karolina Kurkova or Petra Nemcova but a promising future lies ahead of her. Moreover, she has managed to get accepted in the exclusive circle of Victoria’s Secret’s angels, a major breakthrough worth to be taken into account. Today’s post is going to be dedicated to the gorgeous Czech model Hana Soukupova, a real stunner.



Hana Soukupova was born on the 18th of December 1985 in Karlovy Vary a thermal resort located in the Czech Republic (former Czechoslovakia). Hana’s height (181 centimeters) and her long legs made her stand out amongst the rest of her mates very soon and, before hitting the catwalk, Hana had already played basketball in her town’s basketball team. With only 13 years of age Hana started working as a model in Prague, Czech Republic’s capital city. Perhaps the world has lost an outstanding basketball player but for sure we have won a first class top model. Hana Soukupova started to be known in the fashion world in September 2004 when she was selected as one of the nine top models to appear in the cover of “Vogue” US in an issue that compared today’s models with those of the 80,s and the 90,s. Amongst other famous models Daria Werbowy, Gemma Ward, Gisele Bundchen and Hana’s fellow countrywoman Karolina Kurkova also posed alongside Hana in the cover of the US Vogue. Besides Vogue Hana has also appeared in Vogue Italia, China, Russia and Japan and in the covers of Harpers Bazaar, ELLE, Spur y W. Hana Soukupova has modeled for Gucci, Bvlgari, Escada, Balenciaga, Max Mara, Tse, Dior, Jill Stuart, Carolina Herrera, and Versace and she’s the spokesperson for Gucci’s perfume Envyy. As you can see Hana is a rising star in the fashion world. So much so that she’s joined the exclusive circle of Victoria’s Secret’s angels and trudged the catwalk along with Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Karolina Kurkova amongst others in 2006 and 2007 Victoria’s Secret fashion shows. Here you are her personal data and measurements.
