Writing for C Magazine, Mickey Rapkin calls Rosie "the ultimate California girl -- except that she was raised on a farm in Devon, England". Unlike many California girls, Rosie means business.

Huntington-Whiteley is now at an inflection point in her career. Though she walked in Paris last year for Versace and Balmain, she’s finding power in embracing her own voice, following in the footsteps of supermodels-turned-entrepreneurs like Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum. Having launched successful lingerie and makeup lines with the U.K.’s Marks & Spencer, she’s now gotten into bed with L.A.-based Paige for her first signature collection, Rosie HW x Paige, which features 17 tightly edited pieces due in stores in February, including a silk bomber and a lamé jumpsuit inspired by her can’t-stop-won’t-stop lifestyle. Of her take-the-reins approach to this phase of her life, Huntington-Whiteley says: “I never liked the idea of waiting on the phone to ring or waiting for somebody else to make a decision.” The future is female.
