Overview

• On Sept. 12, Wilson walked Alexis Bittar’s Spring/Summer 2026 “Miss USA 1991” presentation at Manhattan’s Abrons Art Center, marking her first official New York Fashion Week runway.
• She appeared in a shimmering red gown with a “Miss South Carolina” sash as part of a pageant cast assigned to states where trans rights are being rolled back.
• Wilson said the show urged audiences to “make a stand,” and Bittar described the collection as a story about misogyny, unchecked predators, objectification and trans rights.
• Event coverage situates the debut within her public estrangement from her father and her recent comments that she has no access to his wealth, lives with roommates and is considering community college due to cost.
• Teen Vogue reports Wilson has additional runway bookings this season, including Prabal Gurung and Dauphinette, signaling a growing modeling and advocacy profile.
