Nicholson has since appeared in Calvin Klein advertisement campaigns, editorials in Vogue and W, and has walked in runway shows for Marc Jacobs and Miu Miu.[1][7] She was photographed by Mert & Marcys for the cover of Love's anniversary issue.[1][9]

She was featured on the September 2020 cover of Italian Vogue.[7]
