Devon Aoki

Devon Aoki is a cultural icon whose legacy spans fashion and film. Of Japanese, German, and English descent, she emerged as one of the most distinctive and trailblazing faces of the late ’90s and early 2000s. At just 16, Devon redefined industry standards-becoming a global sensation and runway staple for top designers including Chanel, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier and Versace.

Known for her striking features and avant-garde presence, Devon became a longstanding muse to creative forces like Karl Lagerfeld and Jeremy Scott. She appeared on covers of i-D, Interview, Numéro, The Face and Vogue cementing her status as one of the most photographed models of her generation. Her campaigns for Chanel, Hugo Boss, Kenzo, Lancome, Moschino, Tiffany & Co., Versace and YSL remain some of the era’s most iconic.

Devon seamlessly transitioned into film, with memorable performances in 2 Fast 2 Furious, Sin City, and DOA: Dead or Alive. Her screen presence carried the same bold energy that made her a fashion standout-cool, commanding, and effortlessly original.

She has also starred in music videos for artists like Fergie (“M.I.L.F. $”) and The Killers (“Bones”), and returned to the runway for Moschino and Jeremy Scott, showing that her impact on fashion remains both timeless and contemporary.

In recent years, Devon has made a striking return to the spotlight, fronting major campaigns for Acne Studios, Louis Vuitton, Moschino, and Tommy Hilfiger. As the face of these global campaigns, she continues to define modern luxury while cementing her legacy as a fashion icon.

A true multi-hyphenate, Devon Aoki continues to shape culture through her ongoing legacy as one of fashion’s most unforgettable figures.
