Kim Matulova (born 4 February 1980) is an American fashion model and actress. Her father, Wayne Rogers, was a former sports wear designer and her mother was a civil engineer.[1] She grew up in Sag Harbor, New York and was discovered by photographer Arthur Elgort at the age of 9.

As a child she modelled for J Crew with Matthew Barney[2] and she played the role of Young Angelique in a 1992 episode (Season 1, Episode 5,733) of the TV series All My Children.

She starred in the James Toback NYC feature Black & White (1999) and the Nemo Librizzi film A Night at the Opera (2009). She also appeared in the 2003 TV movie Undefeated and in the pilot episode (2009) of the TV series Royal Pains.[3]

She has modeled for Levis, Banana Republic, Kangol, Supreme, Seventeen Magazine, Betsey Johnson, DELiA*s (for which she modeled from 15 to 21 years old and is considered as one of their most recognizable models)[4] and appeared in every issue of Missbehave Magazine.[citation needed] She is known for being Ricky Powell's muse.

She is also known for being the face of Melody Logan on the V. C. Andrews Logan book series.[5]

On September 13, 2010, she was asked by Betsey Johnson to be one of the star models of her Spring/Summer 2011 Ready-to-Wear fashion show, during which she came down carrying a skateboard and was instructed to ride it while wearing open-toed platform heels.[6] However, she found herself falling to the ground and losing one of her shoes, and she had to get off and shoulder her skateboard all the way back up the catwalk.[7][8]

In 2012 she began working for the women's collection of the contemporary fashion and streetwear brand Black Scale VV.[1] Kim currently lives in New York and she works in the design aspect of jewellery and fashion.[9]
