Alex Consani Makes Fashion History as First Out Trans Woman to Win Model of the Year!

Can you believe it? Alex Consani is taking the world by storm and is now the first out trans woman to snag the Model of the Year award at the 2024 Fashion Awards! This fashion diva is rewriting history, strutting her way into the record books after being one of the first-ever out trans models to walk the legendary Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

In a heartfelt acceptance speech at the Royal Albert Hall, Alex made it clear: “I’m the first trans woman to win this award," honoring the incredible Black trans women pioneers like Dominique Jackson and Connie Fleming for paving the way. She also gave a powerful shoutout to her family and called on parents everywhere: “Change is more than possible; it’s needed."

Consani’s been turning heads since her runway debut in 2021 for Tom Ford, and there's no stopping her now! Earlier this year, the British Fashion Council confirmed her star power by recognizing her as a nominee for this prestigious award.

This is a monumental moment for the modelling world, and while Consani shines, other stars are following closely behind. Last year, non-binary model Kai-Isaiah Jamal was in the running, and Danish stunner Mona Tougaard, who’s proudly part of the LGBTQ+ community, also made a splash.
