Adut Akech is THAT girl! She’s a top model, nay, she is a supermodel, and at 21 years old, she ought to be recognised as an Aussie icon.
WATCH: Australian Fashion Week First Nations fashion shows.
It’s not just because she’s drop-dead gorgeous and devastatingly regal, but her resume is so lucrative that it reflects a woman’s career ten years her senior in the industry.
Like, how many models can claim their first international booking was an exclusive contract to walk Saint Laurent’s Spring/Summer 2017 show?
For a girl whose career began in Adelaide, she’s not doing too bad for herself, and in fact, her name is on the invitation lists of the most important fashion nights of the year like the Met Gala and CFDA Fashion Awards.
And because we are not quite done celebrating her impressive achievements, among other things, she’s a Valentino muse, she’s covered multiple Vogue September issues, and she’s shot campaigns for Moschino, Saint Laurent, Versace, Valentino, and Fendi.
Oh, and let’s not forget, in 2021, she became a global brand ambassador for Estée Lauder. So basically, when a model signs a beauty contract, she is set for a very long time.
Now that we got our hype rant out of our system let’s turn our attention to Adut’s piping hot style.
She knows how to play with bright colours, sexy cuts, and her accessory game will make you realise just how much a great bag or pair of sunnies can change your outfit.
Seriously, why don’t we pay more attention to accessories?
In Vogue’s 7 Days and 7 Looks series, Adut explained her approach to style and how she likes to balance her vibe.
“I would describe my personal style as easy going, comfortable, but I can still be sexy sometimes,” she said.
Let’s go on a sartorial journey and lust over Adut’s best looks to date.
Adut is a literal goddess in this maxi dress, and the draping around the dress elevates the otherwise classic holiday look.
See what we mean about accessories! Without those epic sunnies, Adut’s green tube dress wouldn’t be this striking.
For her first Met Gala she wore this tickled pink number in 2018.
A black leather LBD is a far more exciting take on the timeless trend than any other iteration.
Green and pink are in love! If you don’t believe us, then you need to look at this outfit a little longer.
For the 2021 Met Gala, Adut brought rockstar energy to the red carpet. And she is really, REALLY pulling off that mullet.
Adut was a winner in this green gown for the CFDA Fashion Awards in 2019.
In our summer holiday dreams, we are wearing this outfit.
This dress is three words. A. Power. Move.
And on this note, we think we’ve successfully made our case.
