In October, Townhall covered how Victoria’s Secret held its iconic fashion show for the first time in six years. 

The lingerie company shocked the world by including two models who are “transgender,” also known as biological males.

This week, one of these models won the “Model of the Year.”

Alex Consani, 21, became the first “transgender woman” to win the title at the 2024 Fashion Awards in London on Monday evening.

Cosani told attendees that his win marked a big step in the right direction” and that “trans kids” should get into modeling.

“Now, more than ever, it’s an important conversation that should be had about how to truly support and uplift one another within this industry, especially those who have been made to feel insignificant,” he said.

As Townhall covered, Consani is from Marin County, California, and is signed to an agency in Los Angeles that was made up entirely of transgender models. Consani told Interview Magazine that he is 6 feet 2 inches tall.

CNN Style noted that the winner of “Model of the Year” is selected for someone who has “dominated the industry” and made a “global impact.” 

“[The] prestigious Model of the Year prize combines the opinion of an industry panel with the result of a public vote, according to award organizers the British Fashion Council. Black trans model Kai-Isaiah Jamal was among the nominees for last year’s award, which was ultimately won by plus-size model Paloma Elsesser,” the outlet noted.
