𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬: A Trans Trailblazer Carving Her Legacy in Couture

In today’s ever-evolving fashion landscape, authenticity, individuality, and fearless self-expression reign supreme. Among the new generation of models shaping this progressive narrative, Colin Jones stands out as a beacon of transformation, courage, and undeniable talent. From small-town Utah to global fashion capitals, Colin’s rise in the modeling world is as inspiring as it is disruptive—ushering in a much-needed shift toward greater trans visibility and inclusivity in fashion.

From Utah to the World: A Dream Awakened by Destiny

Colin Jones, often affectionately referred to as “Col the Doll,” didn’t follow a conventional path to fashion stardom. Raised in the conservative setting of southern Utah, her journey into modeling began not with industry connections or chance encounters at the mall—but with a prophetic tarot card reading shared with her supportive mother. That reading, paired with a powerful dream, became the spiritual spark that launched a modeling career rooted in intention, self-actualization, and authenticity.

Within six months, she was signed by her first agency, and shortly thereafter, she landed with Women Management in New York—marking the beginning of a meteoric rise across all major fashion cities, from Paris and Milan to London and Copenhagen.

A Runway Phenomenon: Commanding Catwalks in 2025

By 2025, Colin Jones had firmly cemented her place among fashion’s elite. This year alone, her presence has been impossible to miss:

• Gabriela Hearst F/W 25 Show
• Rokh F/W 25 Show
• Nina Ricci F/W 25 Show
• Mother, Daughter, Holy Spirit 2025 Show
• Givenchy F/W 25 Show (Polaroids by Robbert Jacobs)

Each appearance further underscores her magnetic runway presence—a captivating strut that merges theatrical confidence with a soft yet commanding allure.

Editorial Icon: The Face of 2025’s Most Visionary Shoots

Off the runway, Jones has become a muse for some of fashion’s most forward-thinking publications and creatives. This year alone, she’s been featured in a series of high-impact editorials that showcase her versatility:

• British Vogue – Some Enchanted Evening (June 2025), photographed by Daniel Arnold
• KNWLS – Haute Tension (May 2025), directed by Torso
• Exhibition Magazine – Colin Jones by Boris Ovini (April 2025)
• Document Journal – Notes On Beauty: Love Is The Message, shot by Inez & Vinoodh
• Exhibition Magazine Spring/Summer 2025 Cover

Whether channelling elegance, raw power, or vulnerable intimacy, Colin’s editorial work is consistently defined by an innate ability to tell stories through imagery, making her one of the most in-demand faces of her generation.

The SRVC S/S 25 Campaign: Embodying Modern Femininity

One of her standout projects of 2025 has been fronting the SRVC Spring/Summer 2025 lookbook, a collection that celebrates dualities: strength and softness, control and surrender. Shot by Tom Blesch, the campaign sees Jones embodying SRVC’s vision of empowered, multifaceted femininity.

SRVC creative director Ricky Harriott chose Jones for her “effortless ferocity” and ability to embody tension—between resilience and vulnerability. The resulting campaign is less about garments and more about narrative; Jones becomes the avatar of a generation negotiating womanhood on its own terms.

Breaking Barriers: A Vocal Advocate for Trans Representation

Jones' modeling career isn’t just a personal triumph—it’s a bold act of visibility. As a transgender woman, she is deeply aware of the impact her presence has on younger generations. In interviews, she frequently credits her mother for providing unwavering support, even leaving the Mormon Church to protect her daughter’s truth.

Jones understands the weight of her visibility. “When I work within these spaces on behalf of my community,” she told Models.com, “using my voice to create connections that can trigger these monumental ripple effects… that motivates me to stand firmly in my authenticity.”

Her fashion activism isn’t performative. She is keenly aware of the history of marginalization and brings that awareness into every set, every catwalk, and every lens that captures her image. She represents not only herself but a broader trans and queer community, particularly those whose voices have been silenced or erased.

Modeling Philosophy: Authenticity Over Aesthetic

What makes Colin Jones stand out in an era of increasingly homogenized beauty is her commitment to bringing theatricality, spirit, and selfhood into every assignment. “I believe that we [trans people] deeply crave genuine connections,” she shared. For her, modeling isn’t about surface-level beauty—it’s about emotional resonance and transformative visibility.

She infuses every project with soul, referencing her love of musical theater, astrology, and childhood creativity (like sewing fashion looks from garbage bags in Utah). Whether walking for Maison Margiela, striking a pose for Ferragamo, or styling herself for a go-see as featured in Vogue, Colin Jones redefines the boundaries of what it means to be a model.
