Addison Gill

Addison Gill is a fashion model who was born on December 7, 1992. She was born in Toronto, Canada. Addison has pointed out that she began her career very young, at fifteen, and feels she may have missed out on a “sparkly blue eyeshadow” period of youth when experimentation of personal style takes place, since she was being dressed and groomed by professional beauticians and stylists. She has light brown hair, green eyes, and is five feet ten inches tall. Her measurements are thirty-four inch bust, twenty-five inch waist, and thirty-four inch hips, and she wears a size four dress.

Addison Gill began her career in fashion at age fifteen as winner of the V Magazine Model Search after which she Signs with Supreme Management in New York, and Women Management in Milan. Shortly after, she walked her very first runway show as an exclusive for Calvin Klein in NYC, followed by Valentino and Louis Vuitton in Paris. Addison has appeared in the pages of Teen Vogue and Fashion, and on the covers of Italian Vogue, French Elle, and Flare. Based in Toronto and NYC, she traveled between London, Milan, Paris, and Tokyo for fashion weeks, editorials, and campaigns. Addison is currently based in Toronto with Sutherland Models. (1)

In May 2013, Addison became a runway instructor and mentor at Sutherland Academy, promoting positive body image and self-esteem for teen girls.

In July 2014, Addison Gill and Madison Schill stated that they were launching Mind Over Model. Engaging and authentic, M/O/M is aimed toward those who want to begin modeling, those who are currently in the industry, and, a topic that is never discussed, those who are seeking a new chapter as they end their careers. Mind Over Model aims to lend a voice, build a community, and turn Addison and Madison's love of fashion into something that will make a positive impact both in the fashion industry and beyond, as models move on to new stages of their lives. Commencing with articles, backstage exclusives, and whimsical graphics, M/O/M is a genuine, realistic face in the adult world of fashion modeling. 

Among the many steps in her career are walking the spring Dennis Basso show, the runway for Jason Wu, and appearing in Italian Vogue.
