Beverly Johnson
Born 1952
Beverly Johnson has been modeling since 1970 and recently walked the runway in New York Fashion Week at 69. She was the first Black model to appear on the cover of Vogue and French Elle and has advocated inclusivity in the fashion world throughout her career. She’s also an author and has a lifestyle brand, The Beverly Johnson Luxurious Lifestyle Brand.
Johnson drips with sophistication and elegance. Her look is chic and timeless. Her former competitive swimmer’s physique lends itself beautifully to some extra-long pleated pants or a simple spaghetti-strap dress.
