Monrose began her modeling career in 2010 at the age of 18, when she was discovered by Your Angels Models, a local modeling agency in her native Martinique. Just weeks after signing with Your Angels Models[2] Monrose began working with Wilhelmina in New York and Silent models in Paris.[3] Debuting during the S/S 2011 collections in New York, Monrose has since walked the runway for top designers including Michael Kors, Bottega Veneta, Lanvin, Miu Miu, and Yves Saint Laurent.[4] After her first runway season Monrose was named a top 10 new face by Style.com,[5] Models.com,[6] and COACD.[7] In July 2011 Monrose left Wilhelmina for Silent models, which now represents her in both New York and Paris.[8]

Monrose has appeared in Vogue Italia, Harper's Bazaar, Vogue Turkey, Interview, Dazed, and V.[9] She was photographed by Mario Testino for the F/W 2011 D&G ad campaign.[10]

Before becoming a model Monrose dreamed of a career as a designer.[3] Deeply interested in fashion, in a January 2011 interview with Vogue Italia she named John Galliano, Zac Posen, Tom Ford, and Marc Jacobs as her favorite designers.[11]
