From her early days in Italy to walking the runways of the most prestigious fashion houses, Vittoria Ceretti’s journey to near-supermodel status has been nothing short of amazing. The paparazzi recently spotted her by Leonardo DiCaprio‘s side once more as they swam and socialized on a yacht in the Mediterranean Sea. And people can’t help but wonder just how old Ceretti is and how she’s built her prestigious career.

Vittoria Ceretti’s modest upbringing

Born on June 7, 1998, in Brescia, Italy, Ceretti’s striking features, with deep-set eyes and high cheekbones, helped jumpstart her modeling career at the age of 14. In 2012, she entered the Elite Model Look competition. She didn’t win, but judges recognized her potential as one of several finalists, reports Hello. Ceretti’s unique look — a mix of classic Italian beauty and modern edge — helped her stand out in the industry at such a young age.

As her dad worked in flooring and her mom cared for their children, the Italian model gradually elevated her modeling resume. In 2014, the then-16-year-old became the face of Dolce & Gabbana’s Autumn/Winter campaign. Ceretti’s big break came when Prada booked her for the runway in Milan. This coveted opportunity is often a predictor of success for many models. From there, her career skyrocketed.
