For Hugo Boss: athlete Alica Schmidt makes model debut – entertainment – ​​Stuttgarter Nachrichten

The German track and field athlete Alica Schmidt (22) actually specializes in the 400 meter run. In Milan on September 23, however, she ran through the stadium in a completely different capacity. She made her modeling debut at a Hugo Boss fashion show.

The 22-year-old walked the lawn as part of Fashion Week for the luxury fashion manufacturer in a turtleneck sweater, gray blazer, sports shoes on her feet and a wool hat on her head. Her inexperience in the fashion business was by no means obvious to the self-confident-looking sportswoman.

Alica Schmidt modeled alongside Gigi Hadid and Irina Shayk

In addition to Schmidt, who moved to Berlin, model greats Gigi Hadid (26), Irina Shayk (35) and Joan Smalls (33) were also part of the Hugo Boss presentation. The track and field athlete posed together with the others in front of a billboard in the stadium, as can be seen in an Instagram post by the athlete. The experience was "a blast" for her, Schmidt commented on several pictures that also show her with the TikToker Khaby Lame (21).

Alica Schmidt was born in Worms in 1998 and spent her childhood in Ingolstadt. She became internationally known in 2017 after various media had described her as the "hottest athlete in the world". In 2021 she took part in the Olympic Games in Tokyo - but only as a substitute runner. On Instagram, she currently has more than 2.5 million subscribers.
