Back in the day of mega-supermodels like Janice Dickenson, Tyra Banks, Iman, and Kathy Ireland (to name a few), Clarissa Burt dominated the runways and was a supermodel muse for Valentino! In her candid interview on the Bella Petite Hour with Ann Lauren, 
Clarissa exposes what it truly takes to become a model and tells us what it’s like in the competitive world of high fashion! In this insightful interview, Clarissa reminds us that there are no shortcuts or free rides to making it as a model, whether you are tall or petite. There is no way to make it as a model without investing in your career, and most successful models have to compete in pageants, events and model searches to be seen by industry professionals.
Clarissa Burt’s journey to successful entrepreneur, producer, public speaker, author, writer, inventor, award-winning actress and entertainer has all the makings of a best selling novel. At 18, Clarissa was a top model with the Wilhelmina modeling agency in Manhattan. Soon after she moved to Milan and quickly began appearing on hundreds of magazine covers such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, and Cosmopolitan. Clarissa was also featured on many of 
the most prestigious runway shows in Milan, Paris, New York, and Tokyo. This led to work for cosmetic houses Revlon, Dior, Clarita, Helena Rubinstein, and eventually she was selected to be the worldwide face of Orlane Cosmetics.
