Andi Muise



Andi Muise is a model from Canada.



The 22-year old is part-Caucasian and part-Native American. Andi's complete name is Amanda Elizabeth Janet Muise and she is 5'9.5" tall and has a slim figure of 34-24-34.



Andi Muise was noticed in a mall by Michele Miller, the owner of International Model Management, who also discovered Jessica Stam. Muise left school in grade 10 and moved to New York in 2004 to concentrate on modeling.



Andi Muise made her runway debut for Badgley Mischka, and since done runway for Julien MacDonald, Issa, Rock & Republic, and Lacoste. About her own style and clothes she likes Muise says, "I love going to thrift stores, H&M, and of course, e-Bay! I don't know, I love wearing heels as much as possible! My style is always changing: baggy tank-tops, sweatshirts, with tight jeans."



Andi Muise has appeared on magazine covers and editorials in Italian D, Glamour, Flare, Chinese Vogue, Harper's & Queen, Plastique, and Velvet.

The one thing that Muise does not like about the modeling industry is being constantly judged for her looks and body image issues. "I've always disliked my body. I think it comes with this industry on always trying to stay thin! But, I don't eat junk food - I have the odd bite of a chocolate bar, or a handful of chips! But I prefer sticking to fruits and veggies. "



While Andi's ambition for the future is to be a stylist or a modeling agent, she's also branching out into acting. "I just got an acting agent in New York and they rep people in L.A. as well. I want to keep modeling, because it's something I've always been interested in doing, but I can do acting on the side. It might get tiring, but it's fun."



Andi Muise has modeled for Victoria's Secret Pink lingerie and walked the runway; she calls it her favorite fashion show. Andi says, "Even before I was modeling, I watched that show every year and wished I was one of those girls!"

Because of her very slim frame Andi Muise has been categorized as a model with a boyish figure but she says, "My body, my hips are a little wider than your usual 'boy-bodied' girls. Every time a client mentions it, I get really upset. But, I can't say anything to them! I just keep my mouth shut and just tell myself that I'm a woman and I was born this way!"
