Gone are the days when models had to dress like a blank canvas—today’s crop of runway faces is embracing their personal style and expressing their individuality through their fashion choices—be it jeans and a tee or a statement dress. Every month, Vogue will dive into the stylish wardrobes of a model of the moment to see what they’re wearing off the catwalk. Consider these the perfect references to pin to your seasonal mood board—because is there anything cooler than model-off-duty style?
This month, meet Emaan Zishan, a 21-year-old Pakistani-Canadian model based in Calgary. She is currently signed with Mode Models (her mother agency) and Ford Models in New York City and Barcelona.
After making her runway debut in the Prada spring 2026 show—not bad for a starter gig!—it hasn’t taken long for Zishan to become a Fashion Month fixture: She has since walked for top labels such as Chanel, Hermès, Fendi, and Christian Dior—and you’re bound to see her walking in even more collections this spring 2027 season, too.
But when Zishan is not booked-and-busy on the catwalks, her off-duty wardrobe tells a whole different story. The model describes her personal style as “casual and comfortable,” revolving around a heavy dose of comfy Converse kicks and cool graphic tees. But she’s not opposed to dressing up either, whether she’s rocking romantic corset tops or beaded evening frocks. Call her closet completely chameleon-like—much like the art of modeling.
Shooting the Jacquemus campaign in Le Mont Saint-Michel. I felt like I was in a fairytale. All these sheep kept coming out of nowhere, it was a fun touch. I had so much fun that day, it’s one I’ll never forget!
Seeing my family’s reactions and excitement [around] what I had achieved. We rarely get any type of good news in my family, so seeing how happy and proud they were made me feel special!
Very comfortable and casual for the most part. However, I don’t shy away from dressing up for special occasions.
The Converse shoes that I wear almost every day. A red purse my mom bought me, which I always get the most compliments on. And a simple black tank top.
I wear a white graphic T-shirt and a pink skirt that matches the color of my nude heels.
Always take the time to talk or listen to a friend. Having a shoulder to lean on, or being that shoulder, is what I think keeps most of us sane during that time.
I would be doing something in film. I’ve always been interested in all the different roles going on behind the scenes of making a film, so I could see myself being a part of production.
I would love to do a Vogue cover, of course. Work with John Galliano. And be shot by Steven Meisel. I think I would pass away if any of those happened!
