U modi, karijere se često razvijaju kroz više sezona. Za modela Anyu Labonville, to se dogodilo u samo jednoj. Nakon prvog pojavljivanja tokom Nedelje mode u Njujorku, Labonville je nastavila sezonu u Milanu i Parizu. Sezona je privukla pažnju urednika, fotografa i kupaca koji prate scenu mladih dizajnera širom evropskog modnog kalendara.
Model sa adresama u Njujorku, Majamiju i Los Anđelesu brzo je postala jedno od najzapaženijih novih lica sezone nakon vrtoglavog međunarodnog debija. Prelazeći sa Nedelje mode u Njujorku na piste Milana i Pariza, ova sezona označila je njen prvi potpuni međunarodni modni krug i završila se velikim ugovorom sa agencijom i priznanjem u industriji.
OTVARANJE I ZATVARANJE REVIA
Labonville je svoju evropsku modnu turneju započela u Milanu, gde je odmah ostavila snažan utisak na pisti tokom debitantskih predstavljanja kolekcija za jesen/zimu 2026–2027. Dana 27. februara zatvorila je reviju kuće House of Rina tokom Milan Fashion Days, ostavljajući snažan završni utisak koji je publiku i fotografe držao pod utiskom i nakon gašenja svetala.
Sledećeg dana hodala je za dizajnerku Iru Langevin na događaju Milan Fashion Vibes. Ira, poznata po umetničkom pristupu, predstavila je Labonville u beloj haljini i crnoj mini haljini. Oba modela pokazala su zašto Labonville ubrzano stiče prepoznatljivost. Langevinine skulpturalne kreacije i precizno krojene siluete istakle su sposobnost Labonville da se lako kreće između dramatične večernje mode i savremenih revijskih izdanja.
Samo nekoliko dana kasnije pokazala je svoju svestranost otvarajući reviju brenda Stephieglam na Infinity Fashion Weeku. Ova prestižna pozicija obično je rezervisana za modele koji u potpunosti nose kreativnu viziju kolekcije. Otvaranje revije postavlja ton svemu što sledi, a smireno i samouvereno prisustvo Labonville pokazalo je da tu odgovornost nosi sa lakoćom.
Njen uspon nastavljen je u Parizu, gde se 6. marta pojavila u Hôtel Le Marois za poznatog dizajnera i atelje visoke mode Lea Almodala, predstavljajući couture haljinu u jednom od istorijskih salona Nedelje mode u Parizu. Ovo prestižno mesto, poznato po velikim modnim događajima, bilo je savršena scena za model čija se nedelja pretvarala u pravi proboj.
Ali ključni trenutak usledio je već naredne večeri.
LEGACY NAGRADA – OBJAVA U VOGUE-U
Dana 7. marta, tokom Paris Fashion Days, Labonville je nagrađena „Legacy Award“ priznanjem koje slavi mlade talente koji oblikuju sledeću generaciju mode. Ova nagrada dobila je dodatnu pažnju nakon što je pomenuta u magazinu Vogue, čime je učvršćen njen status zvezde u usponu na modnoj sceni.
Ubrzo potom stigla je još jedna važna vest.
UGOVOR – LABONVIL POTPISUJE ZA EMG MODELS
Nakon velikog interesovanja koje su izazvali njeni nastupi na evropskim pistama, agencija EMG Models uputila je zvaničnu ponudu i potpisala ugovor sa Anyom. Ova prestižna agencija, poznata po radu sa talentima koji se pojavljuju u vodećim magazinima poput Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar i ELLE, prepoznala je rastući zamah njene karijere.
Za Labonville, ovaj potpis predstavljao je krunu izuzetne nedelje: otvorene i zatvorene revije, međunarodno priznanje i ulazak u veliku modnu agenciju.
U industriji u kojoj vreme, prisutnost i istrajnost često određuju tok karijere, priča Anye Labonville deluje manje kao debi, a više kao početak nečega neizbežnog.
Od Njujorka, preko Milana, do Pariza — za Labonville ova sezona nije bila samo početak. Ona je označila dolazak modela čije prisustvo sve snažnije odjekuje na međunarodnoj modnoj sceni.

Runway News Exclusive: Anya Labonville’s Breakout Season Across New York, Milan, and Paris
In fashion, careers often unfold over seasons. For model Anya Labonville, it happened in just one season. After first appearing during New York Fashion Week, Labonville continued the season in Milan and Paris. The season drew editors, photographers, and buyers following the emerging designer circuit across the European fashion calendar.
The New York, Miami, and LA–based model quickly emerged as one of the season’s most talked-about new faces following a whirlwind international debut. Moving from New York Fashion Week to the runways of Milan and Paris, the season marked Labonville’s first full international fashion circuit and culminated in both a major agency signing and an industry recognition.
OPEN & CLOSING RUNWAY SHOWS
Labonville began her European fashion tour in Milan, where she made an immediate impression on the runway during the debut presentations for the Autumn/Winter 2026–2027 collections. On February 27, she closed the runway show for House of Rina (@houseofrina2) during Milan Fashion Days, delivering a commanding final walk that left audiences and photographers lingering on the moment long after the lights dimmed.
The following day she walked for designer Ira Langevin at Milan Fashion Vibes. Ira, known for her artistry, put Labonville in both a white gown and a black mini dress. Both pieces showcased why Labonville was gaining momentum. Langevin’s sculptural gowns and sharply tailored silhouettes highlighted Labonville’s ability to transition between dramatic eveningwear and modern runway looks.
Just days later, she demonstrated her versatility by opening the show for Stephieglam (@stephieglamofficial) at Infinity Fashion Week (@infinityfashionweek). This coveted position is typically reserved for models who embody the creative vision of the collection. Opening a show sets the tone for everything that follows, and Labonville’s poised presence proved she could carry that responsibility with ease.
Her momentum continued in Paris, where she appeared on March 6 at Hôtel Le Marois for celebrity designer and couture gown atelier Leo Almodal, presenting a couture gown moment in one of Paris Fashion Week’s historic salons. The historic venue, known for hosting high-profile fashion events, served as a fitting stage for a model whose week was rapidly transforming into a breakthrough.
But the defining moment came the following evening.
LEGACY AWARD – FEATURED IN VOGUE
On March 7, Labonville was honored during Paris Fashion Days with the “Legacy Award,” a recognition celebrating emerging talent shaping the next generation of the runway. The recognition gained wider attention after Vogue coverage noted the moment, cementing her status as a rising figure within the fashion circuit.
Soon after, another milestone arrived.
THE SIGNING – LABONVILLE SIGNS WITH EMG MODELS
Following the buzz surrounding her European runway appearances, EMG Models extended a formal offer, signing Anya to their prestigious agency roster. The agency, known for representing talent featured in leading publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and ELLE… recognized the momentum building around the model’s career.
For Labonville, the signing marked the culmination of an extraordinary week: one that saw her open shows, close shows, receive international recognition, and secure agency representation.
In an industry where timing, presence, and resilience often determine a model’s trajectory, Labonville’s story feels less like a debut and more like the beginning of something inevitable.
From New York to Milan to Paris. For Labonville, the season marked more than a debut. It signaled the arrival of a model whose presence is beginning to resonate across the international runway circuit.
