Jemma Baines (born 17 August 1994), is a South Australian fashion model.[2] Baines won the annual model search hosted by Girlfriend Magazine in 2010 when she was 16, and has since been named one of Australia's new top models[2] and one of the top forty international models of the Autumn/Winter 13/14 season by Vogue Germany.[3]
Baines was born in Adelaide and was raised in Grange,[4] a coastal suburb of Adelaide. She was born to Jacqueline and popular Adelaide surrealist artist Andrew Baines.[4] She has two sisters, Skye and Amber.[5] Even as a child at age 2, she says that she knew that she wanted to become a model,[6] and she confesses to The Daily Telegraph that she was "sitting in class reading Vogue magazines instead of doing [her] school work."[7] She had braces up until the end of 2010[7] and was attending St Aloysius College[8] as her career was kick-started.
