More Information About
South Sudanese-born American model Anok Yai is hugely successful in the fashion industry. After Naomi Campbell, she is the first South Sudanese woman to open a Prada show. Yai is one of the “Top 50” models on models.com. The first time she appeared on the cover of Vogue Japan was in 2019, and the second time she appeared on the cover of Vogue Netherlands and Vogue Germany in 2020. With Ariel Nicholson, Bella Hadid, and Kaia Gerber on the September 2021 cover of Vogue,
Her four-month stint as the first Sudanese model to open a Prada fashion show was considered the pinnacle achievement in fashion modeling because of the careers Prada has spawned. Riccardo Tisci, the creative director of Givenchy, is working on a Nike campaign that will feature her in the SS 2018 Prada campaign.
For me, being the first to open was an honor and a privilege. There is more to this than just me. It sends a message to the world when you open for one of the world’s most prestigious fashion brands. For black women, in particular: “Their beauty is something to be proud of.”
