One of the many benefits of living in Miami?

Tyson Beckford is a resident.

What does that mean for locals? You may get to witness the 51 year old hanging at various watering holes, waiting on line at the DMV and modeling trunks at Miami Swim Week.

Yes, indeedy. Last Thursday night, the “Chocolate City” actor was front and center, strutting his still toned stuff at the CAMILLA show powered by Art Hearts Fashion at Faena Forum with head designer Camilla Franks, aka the Kaftan Queen.

The all-inclusive presentation featured pieces from the “Our Natural Lore” collection, full of animal prints and vibrant, flashy colors. Among the myriad catwalkers: a non-binary person, a mom to be and a woman with albinism.

The afterparty was most definitely lit, and one to remember for the ‘Gram: Beckford rode away in grand 305 style, in a CAMILLA-print wrapped Lamborghini.

Didn’t get to check out the event? The Jamaican native’s not going anywhere. Phew. He told Ocean Drive in 2019, the year he moved he’s staying put: “Miami is going to be my home for the rest of my life. I lived in L.A. for a little while and I lived in New York all my life, and you know what? I like palm trees and sand.”
