An elite New York model agency dropped a fashion model and interior designer for posting anti-Israel messages where she compared the country to Nazis on social media.
Camilla Deterre, 32, is no longer being represented by Elite New York, according to a spokesperson for the agency.
The termination of her contract comes after she was profiled this summer in Graydon Carter’s news magazine Air Mail for her role in the design a Chinatown restaurant.
The Stop Antisemitism group, which refers to itself as a ‘leading non-partisan American based organization fighting antisemitism,’ posted screenshots of her incendiary Instagram posts.
One of the posts includes a comparison between the ‘beliefs’ of Israel and Nazi Germany, according to the person who originally posted it, with both featuring ‘expelled millions from their homes’ and ‘enforced collective punishment’.

The post ends with ‘F*** America’ and ‘F** Israel’ along with the hashtag ‘#freepalestine’.
An Elite New York spokesperson confirmed to the New York Post that Deterre was let go from her role on Tuesday, but declined to give a reason.
Deterre was born in Manhattan and has worked at interior design firm Roman and Williams, whose credits include Gwyneth Paltrow’s property in Montecito, California.
She is the daughter of Ana Opitz, who co-owned the SoHo vodka bar Pravda alongside Keith McNally, a famed celebrity haunt that closed after 20 years.
Deterre was also one of the main figures behind the design of Casino, a Chinatown-based restaurant that opened last December.
The profile said the venue is ‘one of the best designed new restaurants on the scene’.
