LANDI SWANEPOEL
Landi Swanepoel
was born on October 8 1979 in Cape Town and was spotted
as a model when she was a fourteen-year-old, shopping with
her mom.
Landi is best known for her campaigns for Guess, but her
highest accolade was when she was chosen as ‘Sylvia’
in Peroni’s Nastro Azzurro ad.
The ad pays tribute to Fellini’s La Dolce Vita
and Sylvia was originally played by Anita Ekberg.
Often compared to the young Brigette Bardot, Landi has been
in advertisements for Chanel, and Landrover and has appeared
in FHM, Maxims and Sports Illustrated. Landi is not related
to Victoria's Secret model Candice Swanepoel.
