Eniola Abioro, 19, established herself as the breakout star of Milan Fashion Week in February, making her international debut as the first Nigerian model to walk for Prada.
Just last summer, the newcomer was interning as a kindergarten teacher in Lagos, when she was discovered by a local agency Few Model Management, and kickstarted her international career soon after, when she signed a worldwide contract with Next Model Management. Aborio has since walked for houses including Versace, Loewe, Miu Miu, and Off-White, and has been flagged by several fashion insiders as one of the most promising new faces in the industry.
