::The ART in Male Modeling::

Male Modeling is all about the art of re-creation, normally most male models find it difficult or most times abnormal to be artistic and versatile in what they do, simply because the feel its out of line, that's totally cliche  because fashion ain't static (ie you don't just stick to a particular preference) that's what makes you a high profile model "Versatility in your ART". 

Start re-defining your definition of art as a model coz only those risks you take can get you that job you desire.

So Live it, Love it, Style it.. XOXO! with love D@fy....

Liya Kebede (Ethiopian Iconic-Model)

Liya Kebede (born January 3, 1978) is an Ethiopian born model, maternal health advocate, clothing designer and actress who has appeared three times on the cover of US Vogue. According to Forbes, Kebede was the eleventh-highest-paid top model in the world in 2007. Since 2005, Kebede has served as the WHO's Ambassador for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health.

EARLY LIFE.

Kebede was born and raised in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A film director spotted her while she was attending Lycee Guebre Mariam and introduced her to a French modeling agent. After completing her studies, she moved to France to pursue work through a Parisian agency. Kebede later relocated to New York City. She has remarked that the modeling industry in Ethiopia is quite different from the catwalks on which she is now ubiquitous because in Ethiopia she had to provide her own shoes for each runway show.

MODELING.

Kebede's big break came when Tom Ford asked her for an exclusive contract for his Gucci Fall/Winter 2000 fashion show. Her popularity in the fashion industry skyrocketed when she appeared on the cover of the May 2002 edition of Paris Vogue, which dedicated the entire issue to her.

Kebede has been seen on the covers of Italian, Japanese, American, French and Spanish Vogue, V,Flair, i-D and Time's Style & Design. Kebede has been featured in ad campaigns including those for Shiatzy Chen, Gap, Yves Saint-Laurent, Victoria's Secret, Emanuel Ungaro, Tommy Hilfiger,Revlon, Dolce & Gabbana, Escada and Louis Vuitton.

In 2003, she was named the newest face of Estée Lauder cosmetics, the only Ethiopian to serve as their representative in the company's 57-year history. Her contract was rumored to be worth $3 million dollars. At this time in Kebede's career, she was ranked #1 on models.com.

In 2005, Kebede was appointed as WHO Goodwill Ambassador for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health.

In July 2007, earning at an estimated total of $2.5 million in the past 12 months, Forbes named her eleventh in the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels. In 2008 casting agent James Scully, who is responsible to pick which model is to score a spot on top runways, says in regards to Kebede:

"An all-time eternal favorite for me — she's an exotic Grace Kelly. Models work for years to develop the poise, grace, and style that she came to the business already equipped with! It still shocks me that I sometimes have to sell her to a client, but every time she walks in the room, she always proves me right."

In 2009, Kebede starred in the film-adaption of the bestselling autobiography Desert Flower by former supermodel Waris Dirie. The film recounts Dirie's childhood in Somalia, her rise to stardom and subsequent awareness campaign against female circumcision. It premiered at the Venice Film Festival and received a standing ovation. Kebede has also had minor roles in two films: The Good Shepherd and Lord of War.

In 2011, Kebede was among the models featured in Lacoste's "new look" campaign in January, a different advertising concept for the year, under the new tagline, “Unconventional Chic”. The ads were shot by Mert and Marcus, showing models wearing the iconic white Lacoste polo shirts worn over fancy black evening-wear  Kebede is currently ranked at #13 on models.com icons list.

BUSINESS-Lemlem

Kebede launched Lemlem, a clothing line, in 2008. Lemlem, which means "to bloom" in Amharic, features hand-spun, woven and embroidered women and children’s clothing. Kebede founded the line to help preserve the art of traditional weaving in Ethiopia and to offer work opportunities to local artisans. Lemlem is sold at Barney’s, J.Crew, Net-a-Porter.com and numerous boutique shops. Kebede says she hopes this will be part a sea of change for her home country. "It's wonderful to be able to donate and help people," she says.

PHILANTHROPY

In 2005, Kebede was appointed WHO Goodwill Ambassador for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health. She then founded the Liya Kebede Foundation, whose mission is to reduce maternal, newborn and child mortality in Ethiopia and around the world. The Foundation funds advocacy and awareness raising projects as well as providing direct support for low-cost technologies, community-based education, and training and medical programs.

Kebede has traveled to Ethiopia to support maternal health projects on multiple occasions. In 2009, she worked with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation as part of their Living Proof Project. Kebede served as a High-Level adviser for the Center for Global Development's 2009 report "Start with a Girl: A New Agenda for Global Health."

Kebede writes for The Huffington Post about maternal and child health and has been featured in Vogue and on The Daily Beast. She is also part of the Champions for an HIV Free Generation, an organization of African leaders led by former Botswana President Festus Mogae. The Champions advocate for increased HIV prevention and treatment efforts in Africa.

PERSONAL LIFE.

Kebede married Ethiopian hedge fund manager Kassy Kebede in 2000. They have two children together: son Suhul (2001) and daughter Raee (August 2005). As of 2007, the family resides in New York City.

:::The ADELE Eye:::

The Adele eye is a very simple, cheek and easy to wear make-up, because it suits what ever look you're wearing for any kind of occasion.

This make-up technique was inspired by the Grammy award winning singer/song writer Adele, she's basically worn this look from the beginning of her career till this present day for almost all her public appearances.It's basically about the eye liner, which has to extend slantly upwards beside the eye and a smoky shadow with double coated mascara to extend your lash volume. Its very simple to achieve, just take a good look at the phenomenal singer's photo and trust me you'll know what to do. 

So Live it, Love it, Style it. XOXO! with love D@fy

Albino Top Model SHAUN-ROSS

Shaun Ross (born May 10, 1991) is an American professional fashion model and amateur actor and dancer of African descent, best known for being the first male albino model. He has been featured in photo-editorial campaigns in major fashion publications including British GQ, Italian Vogue, i-D Magazine, Paper Magazine and Another Man, and has modeled for Alexander McQueen and Givenchy.

Growing up, he dealt with a lot of discrimination because he was albino. He was bullied frequently by his peers, called names such as "Powder", "Wite-Out", and "Casper". After training at the Alvin Ailey School for five years, he crossed over to the fashion industry in 2008 at 16 years old, represented by Djamee Models in New York City; Ross is their only model on roster as of June 2010. He was also signed by AMCK Models London.

In 2009, Shaun Ross made an appearance on the Tyra Banks Show. He shared the show with fellow albinistic African-American model Diandra Forrest; together they shared their life stories about how different life was for them. Later that year, Ross played a role in a short film by Yoann Lemoine which won a first-place prize in a contest sponsored by Italian Vogue. Ross also has worked with other directors, such as Julien Seri, Jason Last, Jessica Yatrofsky and Ella Manor in both film and television. Ross, who is bisexual, participates in the underground ballroom scene in New York, where he often vogues as a free agent.

Ross recently appeared in the video for Katy Perry's "E.T.". In the video, Perry, as an alien, drifts through outer space before landing on an abandoned planet surrounded by litter. Clips are interspersed of large fields hunting game. She comes across a broken robot, which at her kiss turns into a naked male.

Shaun Ross also just recently became the face of Ford Vehicles with the trendy slogan " Be Unique " along with other successful stories like the cover of TRAFFIC Magazine with Lady Gaga's Rick Genest

Ross has more recently appeared in Beyoncé's "Party" video.

What a great career achievement for him, despite the criticism from people, he always remained focused in his goal and it obviously paid off tremendously. It's simple, always remain comfortable in your own skin and  true to your personality, your unique features would definitely place you on higher grounds... Its your life so live it your way, and life would certainly be lovely. XOXO!  with love D@fy chao!!!
