Rebecca Leigh Longendyke Saddles Up in Texas for V Magazine 140 Sp Preview 2023

American model Rebecca Leigh Longendyke takes her luxury-model, sassy-gal self to the Lone Star state, joining the boys club as a cowgirl at Saunders Ranch in Weatherford, Texas. V Magazine ponies up the cash for a fantastic fashion shoot styled by Gro Curtis for V140 Spring Preview 2023.

Adut’s five-year rise from a South Sudan, Australian Refugee to REAL supermodel status is well known by now. Being a Global Ambassador for Estee Lauder, announced in June 2021, goes a long way in wearing the real-deal supernodel crown.

Adut’s career was launched when she closed the Saint Laurent spring/summer 2018 show in Paris. Many young people in fashion — or outsiders with lots to say — think the industry only turned towards models of color post-George Floyd and the rise of BLM.

This is not true. Demands for change and the topic of racism in the fashion industry was much discussed and acted upon before the brutal murder of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis.
