Yseult
Musician
The French singer has become a powerful symbol of size inclusivity, taking the internet by storm with a modern version of Dior’s 1947 “New Look” at Cannes this year.
Yseult Onguenet is a French singer-songwriter and model. Known for her commanding presence both on stage and the runway, Yseult has become a symbol of body positivity and innovation in an industry often criticised for its lack of diversity. Her unapologetic approach to fashion and her ability to merge her music with fashion has made her a standout figure in contemporary French culture.
Yseult first garnered widespread recognition as the runner-up on the tenth season of the French TV series Nouvelle Star, launching her music career shortly after with her debut album “Yseult.” As she grew artistically, Yseult began to break into the fashion world. Her debut at the Cannes Film Festival in 2021 marked the beginning of her reign as one of the most anticipated red carpet dressers, known for her avant-garde style and fearless fashion choices.
In 2023, Yseult made history as the first plus-sized model to walk the runway for Balenciaga and has also worked with brands including Alexander McQueen and Schiaparelli. In 2024, she took the internet by storm with a modern version of Dior’s 1947 “New Look” in Cannes.
