5 Reasons We’re Obsessed With Aussie Model Victoria Lee

Our new favourite it girl makes a splash with beloved local swimwear label.

Victoria Lee is about to be everywhere.

With the pandemic no longer putting a hold on her career, the homegrown model is back on the scene and looking towards the future with a renewed sense of optimism.

While she’s been in the public eye for a number of years, graced global runways and worked for the likes of David Jones, Dior and Chanel, there’s a strong sense that 2022 is going to be stronger than ever for this sophisticated star.

Here are five reasons why Victoria Lee is someone to add to your follow list…

1. She’s Refreshingly Realistic

Born and raised in Narrandera, NSW, the Aussie model’s laidback, down-to-earth nature shines through in her work and social media. The self-described “homebody” regularly posts about her family, friends and hometown, and when it comes to selfies, she keeps it real and filter-free.

2. She Has Confidence In Spades

Being strong, happy, powerful and sexy in your own skin is no easy feat. For 31-year-old Victoria it’s something she’s honed through years in the industry, observing trends that come and go while discovering her own unique style. Empowered by a strong sense of self, there’s an ease to Victoria’s elegance. She’s not trying too hard, and it’s magnetic.

3. She’s A Constant Source of Travel Inspo

While the pandemic has kept her on local turf longer than expected, the geographical uproot hasn’t hindered Victoria’s sense of wanderlust. Her love of travel shines through in a new collaboration with JETS, offering an optimistic premonition of future visits to far flung tropical destinations.

Victoria epitomises the message of the swim brand’s latest campaign, ‘Sanctuary In Style’. The luxurious swim and resort wear line inspires us to dream of destinations afar, the glamour of travel, the expression of art and the secluded beauty of nature.

4. She Takes Us Along For The Ride

Wherever she goes, Victoria brings her online audience with her, posting unique behind-the-scenes content, and sharing her life in a series of well curated, authentic photos.

Taking to Instagram, the model shared photos from the recent JETS shoot in Sydney with photographer Simon Lekias.

“A brand I have loved and trusted for years, @jetsaustralia consistently creates effortless, considered and sophisticated swim and resort collections that always make me feel comfortable and confident in my own skin,” she shared with her 234k followers.

“I’m honoured to join the JETS family for this campaign all about optimism and possibility.”

Apart from a killer swimsuit, her advice for staying cool and chic in the heat? “Hat and SPF always.”

5. She’s A Change Maker

Whether it’s advocating for no single use plastics on set, sharing Black Lives Matter resources or using her platform to strengthen nature laws that protect native Australian wildlife, Victoria takes definitive action on environmental and social justice issues.

This includes aligning herself with brands that champion sustainability, less environmental waste and the abolition of fast fashion that ends up in landfill.
