Equally excited by the signing, IMG aptly wrote on their own account: "NOW REPRESENTING."
Paris recently revealed that she found modelling to be therapeutic, adding that being in front of the camera had helped her to overcome a string of insecurities.
She told Rolling Stone: "I've had self-esteem issues for a really, really long time. Plenty of people think I'm ugly, and plenty of people don't.
"But there's a moment when I'm modelling where I forget about my self-esteem issues and focus on what the photographer's telling me - and I feel pretty. And in that sense, it's selfish."

Last month, the gorgeous teen made her modelling debut for Chanel, and boldly flashed the flesh while on set in Paris.
Dressed in a sheer shirt, beneath which she was completely braless, Paris paired the design with a figure-hugging pencil skirt as she was flanked by a number hunky male models clad in military uniforms.
The famous youngster looked remarkably like Madonna in her late 80s/early 90s heyday.
