Paul Vandervort
	BIOGRAPHY | GALLERY | GOSSIP

Paul Vandervort, born February 5, 1985, in Aspen Colorado, is an American model, best known as the face of "Abercrombie & Fitch" for 2008.

Although his last name is Dutch, Vandervort is mainly German with some Italian.

Vandervort had a strong interest in modeling ever since he was about 14 and a Freshmen in High School. He actually sent his sophomore school picture in an envelope to Abercrombie's marketing department. Needless to say he didn't get a callback. But that all changed when he turned 23.

Just shy of 5'10" -- which is shorter than normal for a model -- Vandervort's always been told that if you're not 6'0", you can't be an Abercrombie model. He proved that theory wrong when he was named the face of "A&F" for 2008, gracing on the bags and walls from the A&F Spring campaign shot by noted fashion photographer, Bruce Weber.

Vandervort's modeling career continued to rise in 2008, when he was hired by "The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency." More modeling jobs soon followed including ad campaigns for "Nike," "Ed Hardy", "Zoom!," "Whitening," and "Champion."

He says his favorite food is Protein shake (Vanilla w/ banana and blueberries). His favorite color is black. The most important people in his life are his mom and dad; his two brothers who are also his best friends and his beautiful little sister. His one wish is to live a long, healthy, and happy life with the people who mean the most to him.

Vandervort's motto he lives by is "If you follow your dreams, and can find your soul mate, the rest will just fall into place."
