Kat Graham has done it all. As an actress, she’s starred in various films and series, from the Tupac biopic All Eyez On Me to hit shows like The Vampire Diaries.
She’s no stranger to the music industry, either, having recorded singles, EPs, and albums since 2012, with her latest EP, The Broken Hearts Club, released in 2024. Beyond her work in the spotlight, she’s also done humanitarian work, becoming a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador and advocating for refugees in African countries like Sudan, South Sudan, and Ethiopia. She’s also an artist, dancer, and producer, making her an incredibly versatile talent. With her range, it’s no surprise that she’s also made a name in the fashion world, representing various high-profile and iconic brands throughout the years. Spotted in Fashion Week and couture collection shows, she’s quickly becoming a style icon.

Graham has been a long-time fan of Jean Paul Gaultier, one of her all-time favorites and the first major designer to ever dress her. The designer’s eponymous brand offers a diverse and eccentric array of fashion and fragrances. She’s donned his designs for editorial shoots, red carpets, and the brand’s shows at Fashion Week. She attended the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture show in Paris to celebrate the new collaboration collection with Simone Rocha and wore an all-brown ensemble from the brand to the music event Billboard Women in Music 2024. Aside from flaunting the fashion, she also became the face of Jean Paul Gaultier’s Divine fragrance, her first campaign with the house. Thanks to her personal connection to and love for the legendary designer and his brand, she’s been consistently representing his designs over the years, and she’s likely to continue doing so for more events and shows to come.

Graham collaborated with iconic eyewear brand Foster Grant to create personally curated capsule collections of chic eyewear styles, her first foray into fashion design. The brand is known as “The Original American Sunglasses Brand,” and its history dates back to 1929. The brand is constantly evolving to cater to all kinds of consumers, from fashion-forward shoppers to those wanting affordable eyewear to address vision needs. It offers sunglasses, reading glasses, and blue light glasses. It also sells innovative clip-on sunglasses like the Haven REC 19 56 or the Solar Shield Yukon, designed to attach to or fit over prescription glasses to combine UV protection and clear vision. Graham’s collections with the brand also showcase their consumer-first approach. She curated a wide range of eyewear styles, from a chunky, oversized rainbow frame called Serving Face to the Aviator-inspired The South Of model featuring mint-tinted lenses. She also wanted each pair to be affordable, hoping to encourage young girls to experiment with style and enjoy funky and fun frames.

Graham was one of the familiar faces spotted at Philipp Plein’s first couture collection show at his home in Los Angeles in 2023. The brand offers a wide range of products, including men’s, women’s, and kid’s clothing, accessories like jewelry and eyewear, and sneakers. The star-studded event saw the launch of the Philipp Plein Atelier collection, modeled by icons such as Gigi Gorgeous, Paris Jackson, and other notable names. With the designer’s first foray into couture, her appearance made headlines alongside other attendees like actress and producer Vivica A. Fox and rapper Offset, the latter of which performed at the show. Though she’s still new to rocking the brand’s designs, she does so with an edgy, effortless ease. It won’t be surprising if she continues to work with Philipp Plein for future fashion endeavors.
