Ella Emhoff Appears on Her First Magazine Cover After Making a Splash at NYFW

Ella Emhoff has had quite a week. After walking in her first New York Fashion Week show last Thursday, for perennial editor favorite Proenza Schouler, and releasing a (very, very limited) collection of knitwear that same day, via the e-tailer Mall, Emhoff has earned another feather in her knitted cap: landing her first magazine cover, for the indie fashion publication Dust.
The magazine announced Emhoff as one of its three cover stars over the weekend on Instagram. In the cover shot—taken by none other than Collier Schorr—she wears a cardigan of her own design. Check it out below.
All of her headline-grabbing news over this past week comes in the wake of the inauguration, when the Vice President's stepdaughter turned heads with bold outfit: an embellished Miu Miu coat and Batsheva dress, both of which looked like they'd be much more at home in Bushwick than among the monotone shift dresses that have overrun D.C. Prior to stepping onto that national stage, Emhoff had done some modeling work on and off with a small agency, and met with IMG Models president Ivan Bart a year before, but it was after her appearance at the Capitol when she signed with IMG—and when public interest in her and her knitwear designs began to take off.
Though she enjoys modeling (“I think my favorite part is just wearing the clothes; seeing the clothes, being able to touch them, being able to look at the craftsmanship—also it’s just a fun way to dress up,” she told Proenza Schouler designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez during a panel last week), her real love is her design work. “The dream is my own brand,” she told McCollough and Hernandez, adding, “I want to see guys, girls, people—I want to see everyone wearing colorful striped pants or my dresses."
