I caught the replay of Doutzen’s Hunkemöller farewell stream. It was so cool to see Doutzen Kroes this candid. She spoke about her life, fond memories with Hunkemöller, and answered questions from fans. Doutzen Kroes has to be one of the kindest, down to earth models around. She was always one of the bright spots about Victoria’s Secret and Doutzen sporting angel wings on the runway will always be one the coolest moments in fashion shows.
Doutzen really does feel like a blessing. You can tell the fans and bloggers who called in really adored her and you could feel the love. Hunkemöller with Doutzen really made something special and I’m glad both Hunkemöller and Doutzen could come to together to make a brand empowering to women. I think any brand would do well to have a Super Beautiful, Super Lovable, Super Dutch Supermodel as their ambassador like Doutzen Kroes♡
On Black Lives Matter
“
It was very important for me to be there because I feel like more than anything right now all I could do was go there and be there out of solidarity to all these people who are in so much pain and I feel like if that’s all I can do right now, to take this action, I want to do it with all my heart.
It’s very in important for the future of my children. I have a mixed race family. My husband deals with racism, my children might in the future. They’re very innocent right now. They have no idea yet of what’s going on and hopefully they will never have to deal with it. That’s why I was at the Dam Square

On Her Time with Hunkemöller
It’s nice to feel proud of all the trips I’ve made and the memories I’ve made and to actually have time to look back and reflect.

Her Love of Horses
“
There would be just some farmers who had a group of horses there. There were two girls, me and another girl and we would be the daredevils and just hold onto the manes and lift our legs and jump on the phrygian horses and then just take off.

Her Love for Dancing
“
I am a natural dancer and I love to dance

Aspirations
“
If I wasn’t a model, I think I would like to be a teacher, maybe something like social science or history. When I was starting to model and I was looking actually for something I would like to study afterward, I decided I wanted to become a teacher, but this never happened. And then, during this whole Covid-19 period that we were isolated, I really enjoyed homeschooling my kids. So yeah, that’s something I would have loved to been.
“
Love of Family
“
I’m most proud of my family, my two children and my husband. What they make me feel like is just incredible. It just makes me the most happy.

On What Makes Doutzen A Great Model
She’s one of the top models in the world. She’s super beautiful. She’s Dutch which I think for our brand is really important. But she lives our brand values. It’s been great working with someone that lives all of our brand values. And she’s beautiful both on the outside and the inside. – Philip Mountford, CEO of Hunkemöller
