For 10 years Virginia worked tirelessly on two exquisite candle and perfume lines, White Flower Lei and Virginia Hey Couture, both launched in Fred Segal. Having made perfumes for herself for 30 years, Miss Hey was convinced by thousands of fans at conventions across the US to offer her perfume publicly.

While living in the USA (2001-2011) Virginia worked further on her design skills. In the mid to late 90's in between acting roles Virginia was a freelance fashion and still-life stylist, and then became a fashion editor in Sydney for 'For Me' and 'Bride to Be' magazines until she swang into the role of 'Zhaan' on Farscape. In the 80's and 90's Virginia used her public spotlight to bring attention to natural health and beauty regimes, and was a regular popular fun guest on Australian chat shows, which led her in turn to begin teaching health, nutrition, beauty and meditation during her 30 year career in the public eye in Australia. She was also one of the Bond girls in The Living Daylights (1987) and, most recently, played the multi-award-nominated blue priestess 'Zhaan' in 'Farscape' (1999-2002). Virginia Hey's career in front of the camera started as a fashion model whilst she was attending a Fine Arts diploma course, soon she found herself snapped-up by casting folk and began her acting career opposite Mel Gibson in her first big break in Mad Max 2 (1981)(aka 'Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior') as the 'Warrior Woman'.
