Modeling career
Palvin was discovered on the streets of Budapest in 2006 at the age of 13. She shot her first editorial that year for Spur Magazine. Palvin subsequently moved to Asia where she continued a steady stream of bookings.[4] Since then, Palvin has been on the cover of L'Officiel, Vogue Russia, Marie Claire Italy, Glamour Hungary and Jalouse Magazine, and has modeled for Armani Exchange, H&M, Victoria's Secret, and Pull and Bear.[5] In February 2012, she became an ambassador for L'Oréal Paris.[6] In 2016, Palvin was revealed to be a part of the 2016 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Rookie Class.

Palvin is often compared to Russian model Natalia Vodianova; British Vogue editor Miranda Almond said, "We chose Barbara because she is absolutely exquisite looking a cross between a young Brooke Shields and Natalia Vodianova."[10] Palvin credits Vodianova and Kate Moss as her favorite models.[11]
