"It's not really about shape, size or gender any more," Ivan Bart, the president of IMG Models told The New York Times, "noting that what brands are attracted to, and what consumers want, is authenticity. "Ella communicates this moment in time. There's a cheekiness and a joy she exudes."
Bart also added that after seeing her at the swearing in, he thought "Wow, she’s communicating fashion."

Shortly after the historic event, onlookers coined Emhoff to be one of the most fashionable in attendance.
In addition to Emhoff, IMG Models also previously announced representation of the inauguration's captivating poet Amanda Gorman.

Gorman is a recent graduate of Harvard University and received praise for her "The Hill We Climb" poem recited at this year's inauguration.
