March 23, 2020(SSNN) — For new models, Paris Fashion Week can be a trial by fire, but Agi Akur took it all in stride. The 23-year-old beauty was on a roll during the fall/winter 2020 collections, racking up some of the biggest shows on the calendar. A commanding presence at Alexander McQueen, Givenchy, Valentino, and Saint Laurent, Akur emerged as one of the month’s standouts. Scouted on the streets of Adelaide, Australia, in 2018, Akur signed to IMG Models shortly after that. A self-proclaimed introvert, she credits her newfound career with expanding her horizons. “You get a chance to work with some amazing clients, meet interesting people, and sometimes see yourself displayed on billboards or in stores. It’s an interesting feeling, [but] hard to articulate,” she shared postseason. “For me, there are moments of happiness and celebration, spread between all the rejection, hard work, and patience.”
