AN Australian model who appeared in Vogue and Vanity Fair has tragically died as her grief-stricken family pay tribute.
Sian Scale, 28, from Melbourne passed away this week after battling a rare form of incurable cancer.
Sian was being treated at the Peter McCallum center close to Melbourne's central business district.
She has worked with some of the biggest names in the fashion industry including Marc Jacobs, Burberry and Chanel and was signed to renowned Australian modelling agency Chadwick.
Her family said in a statement: "She was determined and strong and had such grace in navigating the most difficult year of her life with such acceptance, optimism and vulnerability,"
They added that Sian has never complained or asked "why me" and was "very generous, loving, kind, fun, adventurous and modest".
The model grew up in Mansfield, around 124 miles northeast of Melbourne.
Her family said she was at ease both in the countryside and the city and recalled once taking her straight from a camping trip to the Melbourne Fashion Festival.
"She was always willing to try something new and did things on her own terms," the family wrote.
"Quickly making a name for herself as likeable and easygoing, Sian's generous spirit and natural beauty saw her quickly snapped up as a model to watch in her home country."
Sian's global modeling career has also seen her appear on Vogue and Vanity Fair magazines.
