The world of high fashion is all about making a statement, and Ashby Winter just made a massive one. The rising star is at the heart of the explosive grand finale of Blacked’s blockbuster series, “In Vogue 2,” and she’s delivering a performance that has the entire industry talking—and for good reason.
In the cinematic conclusion to Julia Grandi’s five-part epic, Winter takes center stage in her most daring scene to date, marking a major milestone in her already impressive career.
An Unforgettable First
For weeks, fans have been captivated by the drama, glamour, and ambition of “In Vogue 2.” The series, a slick sequel to the original hit, dives deep into a world of power plays and passion. The finale, which premiered June 12, brings it all home as Winter’s character takes on her ultimate challenge, flanked by the talented Dimitri Shadow and Troy Francisco. The result? Her first-ever double penetration scene, an experience she describes as nothing short of a dream.
“I had such a great time filming this scene,” Winter shared. “The fashion world was so much fun to play with and I absolutely loved the role. And working with Troy and Dimitri was like a dream. They made my first DP scene an unforgettable experience.”
Her enthusiasm is palpable, and it highlights a growing trend of performers feeling empowered and creatively fulfilled in major studio productions that prioritize their comfort and artistic expression.
The Grandi Vision
At the helm of this ambitious project is the multi-award-winning director Julia Grandi, a filmmaker known for her Hollywood-style cinematography and character-driven stories. For Grandi, Ashby’s performance was the perfect crescendo for the sprawling series.
“Directing “In Vogue 2” was a pleasure from start to finish,” said Grandi. “The cast showed up with focus, creativity, and strong performances—exactly what this project needed. Ashby’s first-ever DP scene was the perfect way to close the feature. I’m so proud of what we created.”
Grandi’s direction has been praised by fans on social media and forums, who have followed the series across Vixen Media Group’s flagship studios—Blacked, Tushy, and Vixen. This crossover format created a cinematic event, bringing together an all-star cast including Vixen Angels Eve Sweet and Stefany Kyler, Lia Lin, Vanessa Alessia, and VMG exclusive Jason Luv, building anticipation with each new episode.
A New Era of Storytelling
“In Vogue 2” is more than just a collection of hot scenes; it’s a prime example of where the industry is heading. VMG, which has earned praise from mainstream outlets like Forbes and Rolling Stone, is leaning into episodic, high-concept storytelling. By releasing a multi-part feature on its Vixen Plus platform, it creates a “binge-watching” experience that keeps fans hooked, much like a hit Netflix show.
This model fosters deeper fan engagement and allows performers like Ashby Winter to explore characters and narratives in a way a single scene never could. It’s a win for creators, who get to flex their artistic muscles, and a win for viewers, who get a richer, more immersive experience.
As the curtains close on “In Vogue 2,” it’s clear this series will be remembered not only for its style and heat but for launching Ashby Winter into a new stratosphere. Her closing words on the experience say it all:
“I’m so thankful to be included in one of Julia Grandi’s amazing feature productions like this.”
