In the summer of 1991, she is taken on by Guess for their very first ad campaign. A soaring increase in sales at Guess can be credited to Von Unwerth’s daring, provocative style, and sees the real launch of her career. Vanity Fair, Vogue and a number of other fashion magazines are more than ready to take on the young photographer, givinhg her prestigious cover shots, and she even goes on to win the International Fashion Photo award.
