Model Joan Smalls is having a stellar year. She walked in all of the major shows during New York Fashion Week. Then she took the Paris shows by storm. Not only is she a fly lady that’s consistently working runways around the world but she’s a bringing diversity wherever she gingerly struts.
This Nuyorican beauty has now landed the prestigious Chanel spring campaign. Alongside fellow model Saskia de Brauw, Joan is cast a clean cut gymnast in the iconic Chanel Boxy Cut Suit. Styled by the Carine Roitfeld, the fashion creative consultant du jour, Joan sports a slicked back ‘do, wrist guards and what might be the cutest pairing of socks and jelly sandals ever.
