For the past five years, Loli Bahia has been making a name for herself as one of the most in-demand models of the moment. Alongside her peers, Alex Consani, Mona Tougaard, Angelina Kendall and Awar Odhiang, Loli is leading the charge of Gen Z supermodels dominating modern fashion. 

And it’s not just the fashion pack that loves her: lesbian TikTok is obsessed too, flooding FYPs with fan-made edits of Loli’s soft masc, off-duty style. But before the sapphics caught on, the French model’s first cheerleader was Louis Vuitton’s Nicolas Ghesquière, who gave her her first runway moment during his AW20 ready-to-wear show. After that, more brands began to pay attention, and subsequent catwalk gigs came in thick and fast.

Born and raised in Lyon, France, the now 23-year-old was just 17 when she walked her first show, walking 65 runways in her first year of modelling. While remaining a loyal Vuitton girl, Loli was soon booked by Coperni, Acne Studios, Prada, Burberry, and Valentino, to name just a few. She closed for Fendi AW21, opened for Chanel’s 2023 Cruise show in Monte-Carlo, walked for Riccardo Tisci’s SS23 finale at Burberry, and the same season, closed Maximillian Davis’ debut Ferragamo show. Now a certified Chanel girl, she starred in the brand’s SS24 eyewear campaign; opened the Chanel Cruise 2025 show in Lake Como, and made an appearance during Matthieu Blazy’s debut offering too.

Today, she ticks off a new achievement, becoming the latest Dazed cover star, and wearing full Dior by Jonathan Anderson.
