Pulse's Jeneil Williams in global fashion mode
Writer : Caribbean E-Magazine on Saturday, January 10, 2009 | 5:58 PM
After being tipped by Italian Vogue in their 'black girls' issue as one of the hottest new faces in fashion, Pulse supermodel Jeneil Williams is demonstrating her bona fide star qualities with a series of exclusive jobs for German, French and North American fashion and technology clients.
The Caribbean Model Search (CMS) alumna has set a blistering pace for 2009 with her latest editorials for some of Europe's top glossies as well as a major campaign for Jawbone, the latest in Bluetooth mobile technology.
Williams takes centre stage in the magazine's latest edition under the lens of ace Jamaican-born photographer Walter Chin, who has also worked for Elle, Allure, Vogue and Vanity Fair. The French have also captured the essence of Williams as she recently wrapped up a lingerie shoot for the uber sexy magazine - French GQ. Her exotic looks and perfectly sculpted body worked well for the shoot. The magazine will be on news-stands in March and Williams is eagerly awaiting its publication.
Excited
"I'm very excited about this story. The shoot was great and I think the pictures will be really fierce," said the model. With her debut for GQ, Williams joined the renowned roster of Pulse models, including GQ cover girl Carla Campbell, Jaunel McKenzie and Nell Robinson, who have worked for the illustrious men's magazine.
This past Christmas, Williams also had an active presence in the US as she starred in retail giant Macy's winter catalogue, donning fashions for urban brand Baby Phat and Christian Audigier's trendy Ed Hardy label.
Great pieces
"The gear for Baby Phat and Ed Hardy wasfantastic. Instead of the usual drab winter theme, both designers elected to use tons of colour and include patterns. The pieces were really great and a pleasant festive change," said Williams.
Immediately following the Macy's shoot, Williams went to work with mega retailer Target where, similarly, the buzz was all about winter fashion. Her larger-than-life prints went out on display in Target outlets all across the US just in time for the holiday rush. Williams along with CMS alumna and Pulse agency mate, Gaye McDonald, were also featured in the December edition of Vibe magazine posing arm in arm with rising R&B star Ryan Leslie. The two beauties take lead credits in his video Addiction, which also features Cassie and rapper Fabolous.
Continuing her 'in-demand' streak, Williams' international agency, New York Models, confirmed just this week that the model would also be featured in Depesha, Russia's bilingual fashion and lifestyle magazine. Details are that the model will be shot by Michael Webber and will feature the highly rated Costello Tagliapietra line.
