Ramsey Elkholy introduced Epstein to models after he was released from jail. The former NYC-based modeling agent is now under scrutiny as examines the network of modeling industry associates who offered to bring women into his orbit.

“There’s a reason why so many survivors were aspiring or working models,” Saraziff told the Post. “Hopefully people are starting to see that there’s a glamorous veneer and then there’s a very dark reality for many of us.”

The investigation also notes Epstein’s connections to former Victoria’s Secret executive Les Wexner, supermodel Naomi Campbell, designer Vera Wang, and magician David Blaine.

We continue to urge lawmakers to open a thorough investigation into the modeling industry’s pipeline to Epstein. Join us by amplifying this post and tagging , and .

On May 22, NYC-based model filed a lawsuit against Rainbow Shops, alleging the company created and used AI-generated digital replicas of her without her consent.

When your image is your livelihood, the unauthorized creation and use of your digital replica is a violation of your rights. We commend Pujols for her courage in taking action.

The New York Fashion Workers Act, which took effect last year, requires companies to obtain clear, written consent before creating or using a model’s digital replica. Companies must also detail the scope, purpose, duration, and compensation associated with that use.

If you believe a company has created or used your digital replica without your consent, contact our support line to learn more and connect with resources (link in story).

Our board member sat down with to discuss her experience as a survivor of trafficking in the modeling industry, what the Epstein files reveal about the industry’s role in his abuse, and how survivors are coming together in this moment to demand long overdue accountability.

“None of us realized how much larger the dark picture revealed by the Epstein case really was,” Otis said. “As more voices speak out, it’s becoming harder to ignore the now undeniable and public evidence of what many of us had been desperately denouncing for years: that the fashion industry served as a pipeline delivering vulnerable young people to powerful predators.”

Last week, we launched a new campaign alongside more than 40 survivors demanding state and federal investigations into the modeling industry’s role in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse and s*x trafficking.

The response has been swift and significant.

Survivors, advocates, and members of our community have spoken out and shared their stories. Lawmakers have taken notice. And major outlets have centered the voices of models and survivors on an issue that has long been covered up or dismissed.

This is what momentum looks like – but meaningful accountability will require sustained pressure. Here’s how you can take action (links in stories).

Thank you for your support.
