Career

Early career

Ingmari was on vacation in Paris when a model scouted her in a night club. The next day she took some test shots with a local photographer. Unbeknownst to her, those photos would wind up on the cover of Harpers Bazaar magazine.[2] From there, Lamy signed with a Parisian agent Models International.[3] Her success led her to model in Italy, England, Germany, United States, and Sweden. In June 1968, she appeared on the cover of Harpers Bazaar. In September 1971, she appeared on the cover of Italian Vogue.

In 1972, Lamy signed with

Yves Saint Laurent fragrance. At the time she only earned 10,000 for an ad that was used for 5 years. Lamy noted that if she had landed that campaign 10 years later she would have yielded a million dollar contract.[4]

During her early career, Lamy worked with Bob Richardson (whose son Terry Richardson she met when he was two years old), Sarah Moon, David Bailey, Giampaolo Barbieri, Barry Lattegan, Bill King, Tiziano Magni, Scavullo, Irving Penn, Hiro, Guy Bourdin, and her now ex-husband, Francois Lamy.[5][unreliable source?] She also appeared on the cover of British Vogue, Italian Vogue, British Harpers Bazaar, Queen Magazine, the US edition of Harpers Bazaar, and Linea Italiana.[citation needed]

Hiatus and return to fashion

Upon her fashion model retirement, Ingmari moved to an island in

Mirabella Magazine.[citation needed

Despite being only 5' 7.5" and well beyond her 20s, she has walked for Martin Margiela, Yohji Yamamoto, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Galliano. Since 1991, she has appeared on the covers of Tara Magazine, Red Tee Magazine, and M Magazine in Sweden.[7] She has also worked with notable photographers such as Bob Richardson, David Bailey and Gil Bensimon since her hiatus.[citation needed]

In May 2004, Lamy appeared on Brigitte Magazine's 50th anniversary issue along with Anna Huber.[8] In 2011, Lamy appeared in a campaign for Lanvin for H&M. Lamy is based in Stockholm.[citation needed]
