She calls herself the “Queen of Darkness”.
Nyakim Gatwech is recognized as the darkest-skinned model. Once she was offered to whiten her body, but she made her feature the main “highlight”.
Gatwech was born in Ethiopia. The family had a hard time due to the constant armed conflicts in the country. When the girl was 14 years old, she and her parents moved to the United States.
Due to her rare skin color, Nyakim was often attacked by classmates, because racism has not completely outlived itself. But Gatwech always found the strength not to be led to provocations. In addition, she received great support from her relatives, which helped her cope with the complexes.
Nyakim decided to become a model and prove to everyone that her beauty is in no way inferior to the classical one. Indeed, photographers love to shoot a model in different light and angles, emphasizing the unique skin tone.
Despite her popularity and recognition in the modeling business, Gatwech often receives angry comments from netizens. But she prefers to ignore the haters. Gatwech calls herself “the queen of darkness and night” and “the most elegant” and her confidence can only be admired.
