This Agency Is Paving the Way For Transgender Models

Transgender rights are facing major hurdles [1], and while transgender representation in fashion and entertainment seems like a secondary concern in comparison to basic safety and access to bathrooms, we can't achieve true equality until transgender stories have visibility on a much larger scale. Peche Di [2] is fighting for just that. Di is the powerhouse behind Trans Models NYC [3], an agency in New York that aims to find professional opportunities for transgender men and women looking to work in fashion and entertainment. Hannah caught up with Peche to learn what inspired her to start the agency and how she hopes to keep improving the lives of transgender people everywhere (including via her dating app for transgender and trans-attracted singles called Teadate [4]).
