Emma Blocksage was 'discovered' at the age of 14 by Hastings model agent Martin Robinson in Bexhill's De La Warr Pavilion in April 1994 when she entered a modelling contest which was co-sponsored by his agency, Martin Enterprises - Studio 17.
Before the event had started, Martin saw her walking through the foyer and said "one day she will be a supermodel".
Initially modelling under the name of Lois she was encouraged by Martin to approach Elite - Premier model agency. She won their Look of the Year in July 1995 and became a supermodel at the age of 15.
This garnered her a lucrative modelling contract with Elite—one of the world's best known agencies. She subsequently embarked on a very high profile path in the industry, becoming one of Elite's top supermodel names, in the category of Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Stephanie Seymour, Elle Macpherson, Linda Evangelista and Kate Moss.
As a fashion model, Blocksage was in high demand and travelled the world, appearing in catwalk shows and ad campaigns for designers such as Chanel, Prada, Valentino, Guess?, Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Westwood, Hamnett and Bella Freud.
She has also appeared on the covers of Vogue, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire and numerous others.
A lucrative lingerie contract with Debenhams featured Emma as their "lingerie face" for two years. This led to intense media interest and she soon became a favourite celebrity face and glamour model in the British tabloids and gossip pages.
As a result of her celebrity status, Blocksage became a "name" model, appearing regularly in such publications as FHM, Stuff, Maxim, Front, GQ, News of the World, The Daily Star, The Sun, Closer, Nuts, Zoo and Donna.
In 2003, Emma’s saucy calendar hit the top 5 best selling calendars for the year and sold out in all major outlets. She is currently a celebrity model for the Ann Summers chain of sex shops.
