The Ballerina: Sophie Apollonia

Sophie Apollonia’s fluid movements and talent won her a scholarship at the prestigious Royal Ballet School at just 11-years-old, the only person of colour in her class, while her natural beauty has the fashion world at her feet. 

She has fronted campaigns for Gucci, Kenzo, and Zimmermann and hopes to break the mould in the fashion and ballet worlds, using movement to diversify both industries.

Sophie is the ultimate cool girl that will have you instantly mesmerised. Combining her classical ballet training with hip hop and dancehall, you can find her regularly dancing en pointe to the beat to hip hop anthems like Kanye West’s ‘Clique’.
