Ali was out shopping with her family in Utah when a talent scout from a local agency approached her. He said that Ali and her sister could model. Ali blew it off as a come-on, but, a few months later, the agency asked for pictures. Ali signed with the local agency and also with Elite Model Management in New York and "a week later, I went to Milan." And that, as they say, is that.
Ali signed with her agencies in August 2007. She made her debut on 25 September 2007 in the S/S show in Milan for Prada.

After that, Ali's success was assured. In 2008, she became the face of Chloé and M Missoni and appeared in ads for Calvin Klein. Her shoot for Calvin Klein led to a billboard of her in New York City at the corner of Houston and Lafayette Street - an area heavily frequented by members of the modeling and artistic community.
Ali says that she is "very religious." She is a Mormon and says:
With me, that is a big thing. And then, also meditating, and like, I've been doing that for ten years now.Stephens is a big supporter of the David Lynch Foundation, which promotes transcendental meditation.

I'm not one of the girls willing to starve themselves for fashion, so I do what shows I can but I don’t pressure myself to fit into the sample sizes.
