Tatiana Sorokko is a Russian-born American model, fashion journalist and haute couture collector. She walked the runways for the world's most prominent designers and fashion houses, appeared on covers of leading fashion magazines, and became the first Russian model of the post-Soviet period to gain international recognition.

After modeling, Sorokko worked as contributing editor for such publications as Vogue, Vanity Fair and Harper's Bazaar. Her distinct personal style and her private collection of historically important haute couture clothing were subjects of museum exhibitions in Russia and the U.S. Intrigued by a future she had never expected and encouraged by Gauthier, Sorokko moved to Paris in 1990 and quickly exploded into the international fashion world. Within two weeks she walked the runways for Dior and Yves Saint Laurent and was photographed for Harper's Bazaar by the influential French photographer Guy Bourdin. The 5 ft 11 in (180 cm) blue-eyed Sorokko has modeled for Dior, Givenchy, Chanel, Lanvin, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix, Gianfranco Ferre, Claude Montana, Jean Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen, Comme des Garçons, Issey Miyake, Yohji Yamamoto, Giorgio Armani, Gianni Versace, Roberto Cavalli, Prada, Calvin Klein, Vivienne Westwood, Chado Ralph Rucci, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Bill Blass, Ralph Lauren, Oscar de la Renta and Donna Karan, among other leading designers and brands.

She was also frequently photographed for editorials and covers of European and American magazines such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, W, Elle, Glamour, and Cosmopolitan. In 1992, when Sorokko moved with her husband to California, she began to focus her energy on career opportunities in the United States. Already well known by major fashion designers and editors, her career took off in America as quickly as it did in Europe.
