Early life

Emery lived in Auckland and attended the Diocesan School for Girls, where she played netball. [8] She weighed 95 kg, which interfered with her ability to play netball. [8] To improve her physical ability for the sport, she opted to lose weight under a medically supervised plan, losing 36 kg over 2 years. [8] She went from a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 29.32, which was close to being classified as "obese", down to a BMI of 18, which puts her slightly below what is considered the healthy range. [8] For comparison, the average BMI in New Zealand was 27 in 2008. [8] The weight lost greatly helped her to become in demand in modeling, but caused her to be criticized by some at her school, for being unhealthy, which she disputes. [8]

Modeling

Emery was signed up to be a model with Red Eleven modeling agency at age 16. [9] Emery has modeled in London, Milan, New York, and Paris. [3] Her first international runway debut was for Prada. [1] She modeled in shows for Chanel, Dries van Noten, Marc Jacobs, Marni, Miu Miu, Nina Ricci, and Valentino Garavani. [1] [3] [10] [11] In 2013, Daniel Robson of Harper's Bazaar said Emery was one of the three "biggest breakthroughs of New York Fashion Week." [12]
