Patricia van der Vliet (born 14 July 1989) is a Dutch fashion model, who placed fourth in the fourth cycle of the reality television series Holland's Next Top Model.
van der Vliet was born in Zaandam, North Holland. Prior to auditioning for Holland's Next Top Model, she worked as a salesperson and a junior college student assistant.
Van der Vliet competed against ten other contestants and came fourth in cycle 4 of Holland's Next Top Model. Just a day before the live finale of the fourth cycle, it was confirmed that van der Vliet would be a finalist, after being in the hospital, suffering from Crohn's disease. The Dutch viewers could vote for their favorite model during two weeks before the finale, but people where unsure if van der Vliet would be a finalist, so they didn't vote for her. In the live show, van der Vliet was eliminated, due to having the least votes of the viewers among the other finalists.
She is currently signed with Elite Models in Amsterdam, The Society Management in New York, Union Models in London, Elite Model Management in Paris and Milan, Munich Models in Munich and Action Management in Athens. She used to be signed with Nathalie Agency in Paris and Why Not Model Agency in Milan.
She made her runway debut during Spring/Summer 2010 shows in New York, Milan, and Paris. She walked for Celine, Dries van Noten, Herve Leger, Karl Lagerfeld, Kenzo, Loewe, Nina Ricci, Sonia Rykiel, Sophia Kokosalaki, Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent. She opened Louis Vuitton and BCBG Max Azria and she closed Balenciaga, Preen and Giles Deacon. She is also the first Top Model contestant to walk for Prada, which she was an exclusive for.
