Sessilee LopezSessilee Lopez's career has soared since she took her place on the cover of Italian Vogue's "All Black Issue." Now she is everywhere; stomping catwalks around the globe (21 in New York to be exact) with endless editorials under her belt. We caught her backstage at the Issey Miyake show in Paris, where she was dancing in her makeup chair to Pink's single, "So What." "It's my anthem," she exclaimed with a laugh. I asked Lopez about this new found fame and if people are always stopping her on the street, which elicited a bit of a giggle from her. "It's funny. I have really strong gay following," she said with a laugh, "So in Tribeca and Soho, it's so funny because they're like, 'Oh, Sessilee! You're so fierce!'" I'd say everyone agrees with them on this one.
