On Feb 24, 2018 this stunning and funny loveable beauty Natalia Catilini walked through the model casting doors of OC Fashion Week® full of life. On her instagram she was known as "Catastic" - She was not only breathtaking but charismatic, hilarious and quick-witted. She was intelligent. We would never imagine she would take her own life only 6 months later. It was a crushing blow for us because she seemed the least likely to be showing signs of depression or struggle. Every May we dedicate to Natalia Catalini and those suffering through interpersonal crisis we dedicate this awareness to encourage those suffering to seek help. To further these efforts we have partnered with Crisis Care Services and OC Suicide Prevention Services through non-profit charity DIDI HIRSCH for outreach and support.
