The Most In-Demand Model at NYFW Was Working at Chipotle a Week Ago

published 16 September 17

One of the most talked about models at NYFW was working at a Chipotle just 10 days ago, outlets are reporting. (opens in new tab).

Remington Williams walked for some of the biggest names in the business this past week, including Calvin Klein, Sies Marjan, and Marc Jacobs, and she looked amazing doing it. Not bad for a girl who was washing dishes at an Austin, Texas branch of the fast casual chain the week before.

Apparently a scout saw her scrubbing away and was like, "YOU! Come with me!" and she was like, "OK, tight." And now she's strutting about town wearing super nice clothes and having the time of her life. Go on, Remington!

The model is now preparing to head to Europe for all the shows, and she's practicing strutting in stilettos to get ready.

"[I've been wearing] the heels to the grocery store and bodega near my apartment," she said. "Models do not get enough credit for walking in those crazy shoes—they make it look so easy!"
