Emily Ratajkowski inaugurated the last Fashion Month wrapped in a transparent top in the waves of an orange skirt by Tory Burch, continuing from London in a genderless look by JWAnderson first, in an enchanting long dress created by Nensi Dojaka then. In Milan it was therefore the turn of Versace, a fixed appointment for some seasons, in Paris the return to Miu Miu. Emrata is not a rookie on the catwalk – since her debut in 2015 for Marc Jacobs, she has walked the catwalk for the most influential brands, from Bottega Veneta to Dolce & Gabbana – but never before has Fashion Month been hers (and Bella’s) like last September Hadid).

And although the model and writer, now also a podcaster, has accustomed us to her presence in the system, at the dawn of her new triumph one wonders if this is not a symptom of an evolution, albeit small.
