Elon Musk’s model mom Maye Musk returns to NYFW runway, steers clear of politics

Maye Musk, the mother of Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, returned to New York Fashion Week (NYFW) on Friday, to close the show for the design house Juzui at the Glasshouse, a sleek riverfront venue in Manhattan.

The 76-year-old model, author, and licensed nutritionist walked the runway donning a shimmering silver gown layered with a fluffy white fur coat perfectly complementing her white hair. She walked the runway with her commanding presence.

Juzui’s, this year’s collection was named ‘Winter Blooms Whispering’, featuring a vibrant array of floral prints, slouchy pants, and whimsical tulle micro-skirts.

Maye Musk has a long relationship with the fashion house and flew to New York particularly to close the show.

Though Maye Musk returned to the runway, she clearly steered off from any political questions about her son Elon Musk, who has risen up the ranks in government in the new President Trump administration.

According to WWD, prior to the show, a publicist stated that Musk would not address any questions regarding her son Elon Musk or President Donald Trump’s tariffs on China, anything political in short.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk has become a prominent figure in governmental affairs, after aligning himself with President Donald Trump during the final months of the presidential campaign.

On Sunday, President Trump said that Elon Musk will help uncover “hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud” in federal agencies. The President added that Americans wants him to find the 'waste' and as Musk heads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the latter will be helping in finding the “billions, hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud and abuse”.

“I'm going to tell him very soon, like maybe in 24 hours, to go check the Department of Education. ... Then I'm going to go, go to the military. Let's check the military,” Trump told Fox News during an interview ahead of the Super Bowl.



“I look forward to Elon and Vivek making changes to the Federal Bureaucracy with an eye on efficiency and, at the same time, making life better for all Americans. Importantly, we will drive out the massive waste and fraud which exists throughout our annual $6.5 Trillion Dollars of Govemment Spending. They will work together to liberate our Economy, and make the U.S. Government accountable to "WE THE PEOPLE." Their work will conclude no later than July 4, 2026-A smaller Government, with more efficiency and less bureaucracy, will be the perfect gift to America on the 250th Anniversary of The Declaration of Independence. I am confident they will succeed!” Trump said in a statement in Nov. 2024, while announcing Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Indian-American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy as the head of DODGE.
