In 2005, Kroes was selected as "Model of The Year" on Vogue.com by readers.

Along with several of these models, she appeared in the 2008 Pirelli Calendar.

Her first campaign as the brand's newest Angel is "Supermodel Obsession". In September 2009, she signed to be the new face for Swiss cashmere label Repeat for two years.
