Emma Ferrer, Audrey Hepburn’s granddaughter, has signed with London’s Storm Models. The 20-year-old model created a buzz this summer by landing the August 2014 cover of Harper’s Bazaar.

Born in Morges, Switzerland, a small town between Lausanne and Geneva, in 1994, Emma Ferrer never knew her iconic grandmother. Audrey Hepburn died in 1993. Still, Ferrer closely identifies with her famous grandmother through her father’s memories of his mother and through film.

“To me, she was family. I can live with her through my father. His stories are all about his growing up. But honestly, I haven’t seen all of her movies. When I watched “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” I enjoyed it the same way any young girl would. I’ve seen “My Fair Lady” and ”Roman Holiday,” but I suppose my favorite is ”Funny Face”,” explained in Ferrer in Harper’s Bazaar.

Emma Ferrer is currently an art student. Storm Models also represents supermodels Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne, and Hailey Baldwin.
