She works for RS McColl and Redken. Waterhouse has also modelled for Tommy Hilfiger, Swatch, Lucy in Disguise, H&M, Alice + Olivia, Sass & bide and Pepe Jeans.

Waterhouse has appeared on the covers of British, Korean, Thai, Taiwanese and Turkish Vogue, Tatler, British and Korean Elle, Lucky, L'Officiel, American Marie Claire, French Grazia and 1883 Magazine. Waterhouse has also shot editorials for American, Chinese, Russian and Japanese Vogue, Love Magazine, American Elle, Velour, and Stylist Magazine among others. Waterhouse has also walked the runway for brands including Burberry, Alexander Wang and Balenciaga and is a regular on the front row at fashion week.

In April 2017, Waterhouse was chosen as the "Mercier Muse" for the makeup brand Laura Mercier.

In August 2023, Hugo Boss launched its new collection, featuring Waterhouse alongside other celebrities in its campaign.

Photography

Acting

In 2014, Waterhouse played Bethany Williams in the romantic comedy Love, Rosie. She also played Marlene in the Divergent sequel The Divergent Series: Insurgent (2015), based on the book of the same name. Waterhouse played Arlen in Ana Lily Amirpour's romance thriller film The Bad Batch (2016). In June 2016, it was announced that Waterhouse would play Cecily of York in the Starz miniseries adaptation of the novel The White Princess by Philippa Gregory. In September 2016, it was announced that Waterhouse would star opposite Ansel Elgort in the film Jonathan. She has also played "The Girl" in the 2017 drama film The Girl Who Invented Kissing, written and directed by Tom Sierchio, and Quintana in Billionaire Boys Club (2018). In 2023, Waterhouse portrayed keyboardist Karen Sirko in the Amazon Prime series Daisy Jones & the Six. While the character in the novel by the same name is American, showrunner Scott Neustadter made the character British to "hammer home Karen's commitment to music and living a life dedicated to being in a great rock band."
