gemma is a top model,她在models.com 的排名是緊次於Daria Werbowy(當然啦,models.com 的排名準則是以model的產量,如runway次數, ad campaigns...而定的,but這都是可靠的)
gemma還給人分類為是 娃娃臉系/精靈系 的model, 因為她的雙眼分得很開,唇和臉型都比較偏向娃娃型,以給行內外人予了她這一個稱號,
而在gemma出道時曾亦牽起了一陣的娃娃臉熱潮,那時的models都是以娃娃臉的比較吃香(e.g. Lily Cole, Vlada...),這種風格和當時紅透半邊天的kate moss是捷然不同,so給人一種別具一格的感覺

Gemma Ward is a model. She was discovered in 2002 when she was in the Australian television show Search for a Supermodel, which she was persuaded to enter. Although not making it past the early rounds, the eventual winner being fellow Perth model Nicole Trunfio, her unique look and mesmerizing face hadn't gone unnoticed. This was just the beginning of an international supermodel in the making. She was signed by Vivien's Model Management based in Australia and IMG in New York. She is a former student of Shenton College. Ward was the youngest model chosen to be in a Vogue shoot of nine "It Girls" in the modeling world, which also included Daria Werbowy, Gisele Bundchen and Karolina Kurkova.
Ward has been on campaigns from Prada to Yves Saint Laurent and been in shows for designers such as Versace, Gucci, Chanel, Valentino, Alexander McQueen, and many more. She also has been on magazine covers such as Vogue and W. She is the first model since Kate Moss to be the face for Calvin Klein's perfume "Obsession Night for Men" along with male model Drew Keilt. Recently, she was selected as the first model to appear on the cover of TeenVogue magazine.
"Gemma is one of the very, very few models who look as though they come from another dimension." - British photographer Nick Wright.
Gemma starred in John Mayer's music video for "Daughters". She starred as Heidi in the 2001 short film Pink Pyjamas, directed by Australian Elissa Down. Gemma is set to star in another short film directed by Down, rumoured to be called Black Balloon, where Gemma will play Jackie, a girl who helps her boyfriend deal with his brother's autism.
Ward is now regarded as one of the world's most beautiful women by many fashion insiders, having been described at times to have an out-of-this-world look. She currently lives in New York. She is close friends with fellow models Lily Donaldson and Lily Cole.
Ward is the second daughter of Perth GP Gary Ward and wife Claire. Her older sister Sophie Ward is also a model. Oscar and Henry are her younger twin brothers.
這個site有gemma從04年初出道至近期的 S/S07 runway所走過的show
http://www.runwaymayhem.com/models/gemma.html
而今個season gemma沒有走到Milan Fashion Week(包括D&G, Burberry, Gucci....)
這是因為gemma為了她在和Liv Tyler有份參演的 film 而捨棄走Milan Fashion Week
我想現在gemma也會開始慢慢減少走show的次數,就好像Daria Werbowy.....向其他方面發展,而gemma就選了先演戲,畢竟gemma兒時的夢想都是當個喜劇演員,她喜歡演戲呢
你更可去youtube睇睇她之前在60 minutes裡的訪問(有她在childhood時的片短,那時的 gemma已經熱愛演戲了)
