Nicole Simeone: the Italian model and creator on the STELLA roster.

Nicole Simeone was born and raised in Naples. She moved to Madrid in 2018 to study dentistry, finished the degree, and built a modelling and content career alongside it, posting daily before anyone was paying and reinvesting the first earnings into production. She told Naluda Magazine the change she saw coming: “A model today isn’t just a face; she’s a voice, a brand, and a storyteller.”

Today she works between Madrid and Naples with an audience of more than 1.7 million on Instagram and TikTok. L’Officiel Monaco described the method: fewer pieces, each treated like a print editorial. In her words to them, “I think in light, not numbers. If an image feels true, it travels.”

She is represented by STELLA MGMT. We welcomed her to the roster in January 2026, and her profile, availability and digitals are on her STELLA page.

Her brand work runs across fashion and beauty: Fashion Nova, Italist, Farfetch, Public Desire, Gisou, Tower 28 and Byoma, and two Australian labels, Honey Birdette and Wiskii Active. With the Madrid collective Victim 15 she co-designed a swimwear line and directed its campaign. In Las Vegas she fronted a partner activation at UFC 317, shown on the arena screens to around 18,000 people.

Harper’s Bazaar Vietnam profiled her as a creative lead and digital strategy partner for brands, and noted her place in the Top 20 Women in Digital Leadership at DIGITALCONFEX Dubai 2025. Marie Claire Netherlands followed in January with a piece on how she treats a digital campaign with the seriousness usually reserved for print, and CanvasRebel ran a long interview on the business side. Her line there is the one brands quote back: “I’m not a one-time boost, I’m a creative partner.”

For STELLA, that is exactly the profile the roster is built around: a model who can carry a campaign in front of the camera and understand what happens to it afterwards. If that is the kind of work you are casting for, enquire here.
