Career

Runk was discovered in 2003 at 13 in a PetSmart in Chesterfield, Missouri by Mary Clarke of Mother Model Management while she was volunteering for the cat adoption department.[11][9] At the time, she was a size 8, in between straight size and plus-size modeling.[8] The Clarkes told her she needed to either lose weight or gain weight to model. She chose to gain between {{convert|10|and|20|lb|kg|abbr=on}} to a size 10–12 to become a plus-size model.[8][9][10]

She has appeared on Good Morning America and was profiled by Cosmopolitan.[11]

Her beachwear appearance in H&M's Summer 2013 campaign was featured on the front page of H&M's US website in late April 2013 and received extensive media coverage and spread rapidly through blogs and social media.[5][6][7][8] Her Facebook page gained 2,000 likes in 24 hours and increased to over 12,000 likes in a few months.[6][14] As a result of the coverage, Runk wrote an op-ed piece for BBC on size diversity in fashion and her experiences as a model in May 2013.[6]

Runk has modeled for many plus size retailers, including two Marina Rinaldi campaigns in 2012.[15][16] Jennie has also walked in several Elena Miro runway shows.
