Marpessa Hennink is a Dutch Model. I'm curious what you would rate her. For me, she is at least 8+. But subjectively she is 10 for me as I find her very attractive. I also looovvve her runway catwalk.

Btw, I dont know if I should tag Multiracial because she is 1/4 Surinamese and I'm also not sure if Netherlands is Western or Northen europe. So sorry if I'm mistaken. Pls correct me.

Hennink was born in Amsterdam, Netherlands to her Dutch mother and bi-racial Dutch / Surinamese father.

She formally started her career in 1982, walked on the first Dolce & Gabbana fashion show in 1985 and, in 1987, starred in the advertising campaign for their Fall/Winter collection, the first campaign for the label. The campaign was photographed in Sicily by Ferdinando Scianna and the photographs from the campaign made such an impression that Hennink came to be seen as an icon of Mediterranean femininity.

In October of that year, Hennink was named "Model of the Year" during the “Oscars de la Mode” in Paris. After which she was given the nickname "the Catwalk Contessa".

In 1993, after the publication of the book “Marpessa, uno sguardo”, by Ferdinando Scianna, she stopped modelling for a while, having been put off by the arrival of the grunge fashion trend. She moved to Ibiza and worked as an interior decorator.
