Several sought-after models walked in more than thirty runway shows during the Fall/Winter 24 ready-to-wear season. While they hailed from a wide variety of locales, four of the top ten have roots in one small African nation, South Sudan (population 10 million).

Rejoice Chuol grew up in the camp and was even ‘discovered’ there by a Canadian scout.
