Melino Carl, Botswana’s first trans model, is taking the runway by storm with her activism through fashion Melino Carl does not just belong on the runways of Botswana or South Africa.
She also belongs on the catwalks of New York, Paris, and Milan. She exudes a moody elegance reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn combined with the in-your-face attitude of Brenda Fassie.
Melino has been strutting her stuff since 2016. “The relationship in my life is the one I have with the runway,” she says. Her tone is strong, confident.
There is no doubt that fashion is her one true love. It’s easy to understand why this smouldering trans woman is in demand for shows by South African couture designers – including David Tlale.

How the Head of a Shelter for Young L.G.B.T.Q. Adults Spends Sundays
Wendy Kaplan is the director of Trinity Place Shelter, which houses up to 10 young people at any given time — most of them transgender men and women of color — and steers them toward permanent housing, as well as professional or educational goals they set for themselves. The shelter, an independent nonprofit, was originally a pilot project of Trinity Lutheran Church of Manhattan, and still occupies its basement on the Upper West Side. It lets residents stay up to a year and half and welcomes individuals over the age of 21, a typical age cutoff for many youth shelters.
