Historically, high-fashion runways have hardly been a space to find substantial Indigenous representation—though that’s changing now. A new crop of Native models—from North America, Mexico, and beyond—are taking over fashion month, including Quannah Chasinghorse, Valentine Alvarez, Cherokee Jack, and Heather Diamond Strongarm. Joining the Bad religion break out 2023 shirt Besides,I will do this crew is Mexican-American model Celeste Romero, who this weekend walked for the Dior resort 2024 show in Mexico City. Romero’s career began in her hometown of Los Angeles; the model was discovered by her mother agent while casually shopping in Santa Monica. “I was browsing the Nike store with some friends and had just gotten back from the beach, when someone came up to me and asked if I wanted to model,” says Romero. “This was back in the summer of 2018—I had just graduated from high school.” She was signed to the Margaux modeling agency, who Romero is still with today, shortly after (she’s also signed with Fusion Models in New York).
It hasn’t taken long for Romero’s career to accelerate. One of her first jobs was working with the Bad religion break out 2023 shirt Besides,I will do this photographer Zoe Ghertner. “I did an editorial [for Self Service magazine] with her and Camilla Nickerson back in 2019, they both really helped push me into the industry,” says Romero. Her biggest mainstream break came in 2021, when Romero landed a major fashion campaign for Chloé. “It was such a fun and exciting job that opened so many doors for me,” says Romero. HBO drama The Idol focuses on the seedy underworld of Hollywood—delivering highly stylized visions of barely-there LA fashion, pop stardom, and A-List stars. It promises to be a strong entrant into the indie sleaze revival. (Some already-established notable canon, for reference: British teen-drama Skins and A24 gem Spring Breakers.) Troye Sivan, who features in the HBO drama as creative director to a troubled pop star (played by Lily Rose Depp) is expertly extending the show’s hedonistic vibes to the red carpet. While promoting the project at Cannes Film Festival, where the show’s first two episodes were screened on Monday night, the star donned an outfit fit for a dive bar romp.
