Irina Shayk stutied marketing after high school but she was not happy so she entered a locak beauty school with her sister Tatiana. A person from a local modeling agency noticed her here. Then she participated in the “Miss Chelyabinsk 2004″ beauty contest and won. The famous modeling scout Guia Jikidze noticed her and recommended that she become a model.
Irina Shayk started modeling in Europe, and in 2005 she came to Paris. She started her career relatively late for a model, at the age of 19. It was very difficult for her, as she didn’t speak English at all and everything was new but soon Irina was working in Europe and in USA and felt at ease during the most complicated shootings.
In 2007, the Russian bombshell took over for Brazilian model Ana Beatriz Barros as the face of Intimissimi (a role she had until 2009). Since October 2010 Irina has been Intimissimi official global ambassador.
She made a change from swimwear to high fashion with a spread in Spain's Harper’s Bazaar and landed the cover of Elle Spain for their November 2010 issue.[17] Glamour Spain awarded her "Best International Model of 2010".(Spanish: Mejor Modelo Internacional). At the end of the year she was pictured nude in the GQ Spain December issue; however, she claimed that she had not stripped for the photoshoot, and that the magazine had digitally altered the images to remove her lingerie.
