Supermodel Anok Yai was left frustrated after losing the 2024 “Model of the Year” title to Alex Consani, the first transgender model to ever win the title. Anok subsequently requested not to be nominated for future British Fashion Awards and seemingly criticized industry biases in a now-deleted social media post that stirred controversy.
Anok, who was born in Egypt and raised in New Hampshire, USA, was nominated for “Model of the Year” at the British Fashion Awards, held at the Royal Albert Hall in London, UK every year.
The title, which Anok also did not win in 2023, has previously been claimed by fashion icons like Kate Moss, Georgia May Jagger, and Cara Delevingne.
