@lena âs public life began early and all at once. As a teenager, the Stuttgart native became globally recognisable alongside her identical twin sister. The then-14-year-olds began posting fun dance videos on musical.ly as the duo Lisa and Lena. Their first video went viral, garnering millions of followers. âWe never really realised what was happening,â Mantler says.
Today, the 23-year-old is carving her own path. Mantlerâs burgeoning modelling career places her firmly within fashionâs faster circuits. Her entry onto the runway was swift and assured, marked by appearances for houses such as
@miumiu ,
@lacoste and
@hugoboss , a trajectory that reflects the industryâs confidence in her. She is also the founder of streetwear label
@mantlabel , where she develops clothing away from seasonal pressure and without a fixed rhythm of release.
