Lulu Bonfils, art student, model, and new star of Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty lingerie campaign, is set to join the ranks of long time Fenty faces Slick Woods and Jazzelle Zanaughtti after becoming one of the shoot’s breakout stars.

An advocate for body positivity since she started modelling aged 15, the Connecticut native got her big break after appearing in a plus size campaign for sports giant Nike, going on to model for Diesel and Gucci and walking in New York Fashion Week before her final high school year was out. Now 18, the model’s looking to combine her studies in art and drawing at New York’s Pratt Institute with her work in front of the camera - with demand set to grow after Rihanna herself shared Bonfils’s campaign photo with the caption 'my girl Lulu' to her 60 million followers.
