How have you been? We have missed you dearly. Lots of things going on and we will talk about all that soon including showing off our Full Figured Fierce Professional Model of the Month. Can’t wait for you to meet her..
But right now, I want to take the time to show some love to our models who represent Full Figured Fierce with the utmost class, style and grace. We lovingly call them THE RUNWAY KILLERS
Our First spotlight is on our beautiful Petite Plus Model, Monique Gaines. We first met this Beauty at our very first Full Figured Fierce Anniversary fashion show in March of 2015. She hadn’t thrown her hat onto the runway yet.. but that soon changed. One of our fabulous sponsors were giving away a pair of concert tickets to an upcoming Anthony Hamilton concert. Now, listen, I don’t know too many women who didn’t want to be there. So in true fashion show form, we had a walk off. Well, Ms. Monique was not about to leave that show without those tickets. She gave a strut so fierce that made the audience cheer that I had to come from backstage to see what was happening. See for yourself…
Yep… THAT HAPPENED. That was me in the black dress going to find out who this queen was who just destroyed my runway. ONE.. somebody needed to pay for the damages.. and TWO I needed her on the team. We recruited her that night. A few weeks later, Monique invested in herself and came to our Walk Like Her Model and Confidence Class. She built her confidence, showed us the WINNING personality, perfected her walk.. and Changed Her Stars. That was just over a year ago. Since then… THIS happened..
Yep.. she has walked for such designers as Shelia Lee, Blushing Hem, DJ Queendom, Echt Clothing, AJ Bischoff, Willette Prism, Model Haven Boutique, Classic Maven Boutique, and Belk. And not only has she walked for Full Figured Fierce but Alabama Fashion Week 2016 and Confessions of a Goddess in Orlando Florida hosted by none other than the Queen Cynthia Bailey.
Don’t believe you can change your stars.. think again. Monique is the prime example of what a little hard work, determination and FAITH IN YOURSELF can do. So, Queens.. tell me.. How will you CHANGE “YOUR” STARS?
Check out some of the fabulous photos from Monique’s year…
