Despite this being her first debut at the New York Fashion Week, modelling has been her craft from the time she was six.
Her experience extends to professional acting, being a brand ambassador, dancing and singing. She is currently represented by 33 and Me Talent Agency one of the leading modelling agencies in Johannesburg.

At this rate Gizelle’s dream of sharing the catwalk with models, Gigi Hadid and Kylie Jenner will soon be a reality. For Gizelle, owning her style has always been of supreme importance and her work highlights this.
“I have always enjoyed creating my own outfits, and from an early age, I made it my business to keep up with current trends. I love fashion and I think everyone should get to express themselves through fashion,” she said according to Woman&Home.
There is plenty to look forward to from this multitalented superstar as the sky looks like her only limit at the moment.
