Renauld White, who trailblazed diversity on designer runways and also appeared on the soap opera Guiding Light, died June 26.  He was 80 years old. White was under hospice care at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan at the time of his death, according to his friend and fashion designer Jeffrey Banks, who spoke with Wwd. The cause of death was not immediately known. Throughout his career, White called for greater representation in the fashion industry. In 1979, White became the second Black model to appear on the cover of GQ, the first being Urs Althaus just two years prior. White modeled for leading designers such as Bill Blass in 1969 as well as shows for Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and Donna Karan. He also worked for Yves Saint Laurent, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Versace, Armani, and Cerutti. White came out of retirement in 2023 to appear in an ad campaign for Dolce & Gabbana that was shot by Steven Meisel.
