Standing at a statuesque 5'11" model Somalia Knight was determined to become a model. Inspired by the hit show "America's Next Top Model," Somalia's determination grew more than ever. She started a fashion club in high school to foster a community of fashion enthusiasts and raise funding to support various philanthropic efforts like combating eating disorders. Determined to overcome the exhaustion of being bullied, Somalia graduated early at the top of her class. She would later meet an agent who would help launch her career.  With her unique look and newfound confidence, Somalia shaved her head, showing off her prominent ears, which would further catapult her career into working with one of the top modeling agencies in the world. She's walked for designers like Calvin Klein and LaQuan Smith and appeared in magazines like iD and NYLON. We had a chat about her modeling journey, her experience working with Solange, and the power of breaking out of the box. Connect with Us!
