There certainly are a lot of pretty people in the fashion world. One of them is supermodel Nyadak Thot, who is both Sudanese and Austrian.

A lot of names have been called at the model over the years, but this new one might make you look twice.

You can learn more about the beauty Nyadak “Duckie” Thot by reading on.

Nepalese-Australian model Nyadak Thot is used to having a lot of people look at her.

She has been building a fan base since she was a youngster and competed on Australia’s Next Top Model.

The model, who is 28 years old, grew up in Australia and is one of six children.

They moved from war-torn Sudan to Australasia a year before she was born so they could have a better and more safe life.

People at her school who had trouble pronouncing her name gave her the popular nickname. It stuck, and Duckie asked everyone in her life to take it as her name too.

Her father is a veterinarian, and her mother chooses to work as a child care worker.

Catalkin met her through her sister Nikki Perkins. Perkins used to be a model and post videos on YouTube.

Following her third-place finish, the model made the brave choice to move to New York City in the hopes of becoming a great model in the United States.

She became a model after signing with New York Model Management. Her first show was at Kanye West’s Yeezy Fashion Week.

For Moschino, Oscar de la Renta, Rihanna (Fenty x Puma), and other names, the beautiful model has done work.

When the model joined Fenty Beauty’s team, Rihanna took her under her wing. She also worked with beauty legend Pat McGarth.

She told Vogue Italia that her biggest dream was to be on the cover of Vogue and be the face of a big brand’s promotion around the world.

And in 2018, her being the star of Pirelli’s calendar made this dream come true. It was based on the book Alice in Wonderland.

The model was shown with Naomi Campbell, Lupita Nyong’o, Sean Combs, and Adwoa Aboah, all of whom are very pretty.

Tim Walker took the pictures for the calendar, and Edward Enninfu, who used to be the head of Vogue UK, styled it.

It was said that she would be the L’Oréal Paris spokeswoman. The model wants to help girls and women with dark skin love and accept themselves.

People have told the model that her clear skin and pretty face make her look like a real-life Barbie doll. She wants other women to accept and love themselves too.

Some people picked on her in 2017 because she was black and had long hair. “Being a black woman, we haven’t really been taught how to take care of our natural hair — we’ve only been taught how to hide it. I think hair companies, the media, hairstylists, and the industry itself are to blame.”

“They haven’t made the same efforts to ensure black women are looked after in their most natural form. If you really think about it, it’s the black women on YouTube who have really held it down with their natural hair tutorials.

I think [the industry] should really take ownership and start to invest in us.”

In an Instagram post, Duckie said that since she was an ANTM contestant, she has never had a good time dealing with her natural hair for the runway.

“I was extremely upset and embarrassed that they ‘didn’t know how’ to cornrow my natural hair when at the end of the day that’s their job. I sat in front of the mirror silently crying before my shoot doing my own hair, cameras rolling while all the other girls had hairstylists, s#it scared I was going to get eliminated because a few ‘hairstylists’ didn’t know how to do their job.”

You can really reach your goals if you don’t give up. Everyone here should really look up to Nyadak “Duckie” Thot!
