Meet the models of LGBTQIA+ agency New Pandemics, who are bringing true inclusivity and diversity to the fashion industry
Inclusivity and diversity have been buzzwords in the fashion industry for a while now, but true representation is still nowhere near it should be. But model casting and management agency New Pandemics is hoping to change that.
I was in college when I [signed], after my agent found me on Instagram. I was so sure that I would be successful with my career that I actually stopped going to classes. I knew that I wanted to be an artist in New York, but I would've never thought that modeling would just fall into my lap. Dylan is wearing a Habitual jacket, Private Policy pants, and their own jewelry. Cory is wearing a No Sesso jacket, Private Policy shorts, Palomo Spain shoes, Garni tights, and their own jewelry.I'm 24 years old and have lived in NYC for four years. I was born in Georgia and moved around a lot growing up. I came to the city to be a model who subverts the imagery that I was denied growing up.
I remind myself that I'm young. I will make mistakes. I will miss opportunities. But there's plenty more where that came from. I have time, and I have the support of my friends. The next step you make isn't your last.Pride is the opportunity to celebrate yourself in an over-the-top way, to make up for the years you missed when you had to hide who you were.
What is your approach for overcoming self-doubt and other obstacles you face in and outside of modeling? My greatest self comes out when I enter a space that has no pretending or performing, no judgment or ridicule. No fear. My greatest self is achieved when these expectations are met. I, and the queer community, get to choose our family–not limited by biology. My community raises me up and allows me to be me, my greatest self.
This January I signed with New Pandemics. Cody Chandler is beyond legendary, and my first job was for American Vogue. I recently shot with Steven Klein. The atmosphere had always been great for me, which is something I feel very blessed to experience.Media representation of the community is a crucial mechanism in which capitalism is used toward our advantage. It's one of the ways we can be strengthened as a group.
M: Pride started as a riot. Pride is about resistance against police brutality and state-sanctioned violence in all forms. Pride means the abolition of the social stratification benefiting the few, the white, the wealthy. Pride means that we should all have access to affordable health care that is inclusive of trans people and people with disabilities. Pride actually has very little to do with celebration in Trump's America.
