Despite her eponymous last name, heiress Victoria Lacoste (from French fashion and sport empire Lacoste), rebelled against her famous family heritage to pursue a career in acting. At the young age of 11, she toured across France and Switzerland in a series of professional musicals before becoming the first foreigner in history to be admitted to the BFA Theater program at the University of Colorado Boulder, receiving two prestigious Irene Nominations for her performances.

Most recently, she has starred as ‘Q’ in Asking For A Friend, shot in Los Angeles, and played supporting lead in ‘The 4th Wall,’ shot in Paris, now in festivals.

Lacoste is soon due to star with Issy Knopfler (Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men) in short film Silent Lies. 

Coming from the Lacoste family, Victoria was expected to follow the family business into fashion - but took a hard right turn with film - and more specifically, horror. While her family name might sound like an advantage in many ways, it was also a huge challenge for her to be taken seriously as both a creative and entrepreneur within the industry. This is partly why she decided to focus on helping to uplift up and coming, emerging talent from other women.
