I wonder if "Fashionette" is on her birth certificate; if it is her mother must be a prophet, and I commend her for naming her daughter something so deliciously tacky yet apt.

Anyway, she is seriously gorgeous.

i think this name is bloody awkward, but the girl is intriguing indeed, i love the shape of her eyes and her profile.

I came just because of the name.

But in all seriousness she is striking. I would suggest editing her name perhaps?

 

[LeRouquin]

Her face, her name, her neck, her waist, her name.

oh my god.

...this could be a moment.

Her face, her name, her neck, her waist, her name.

oh my god.

Dead @ this copy and paste look.....




Her name is a bit ridiculous to be honest, but I think she's quite beautiful.

 

[Machinegumm]

Omg, FLAWLESS GODDESS! I don't even know where to begin... neck, waist, eyes, name... all perfect.

I thought this was posted in the wrong sub forum at first. Then I thought with that name she must be an IMG girl. Alas, wrong on both accounts, and she is in fact a stunning girl.

Wow what a face another star from Wilhelmina!!

Dead @ this copy and paste look.....

LOL. I like her, she has gorgeous cheekbones and eyes. I won't be surprised if she is successful, the big question is can she keep it up in the long-term, unlike poor Melodie?

 

[yesharry]

...what if she were a CK exclusive! Ha. Like, probably not...but she has yet to appear and she has that Maida and Rami look.

 

[fer19dog]

She might be on hold for them, hopefully they do use her and are not
Wasting her time when she could be doing castings/shows.

 

[FashionGeniuz]

Her name is ridiculous, I feel like its one of her silly agent's creation. But if its her real name, shame on her agents for sending her out without fixing it.

There's a rumor of an exclusive floating around

 

[yesharry]

Apparently, her real name is Chablis Supreme Fashionette Morrison. No shade!

Also--unless there's something I do not know--there were never rumors of her being a CK exclusive. I was only speculating/hoping before. I do hope she has some kind of exclusive, as she hasn't shown up anywhere yet!

...Though the lack of black models seems like an intractable issue, up-and-coming black model Fashionette Morrison told theGrio that she is actually positive about her future in the industry. Wilhelmina Models just signed her two weeks ago. One of her first runways shows was during the recent 2012 Fashion Week.
"I'm just so excited right now, and so proud of myself and everyone is proud of me too," Morrison said of her achievements.
Originally from New Jersey, the budding catwalk worker said she has wanted to be a model since she was a little girl. Her name even predestined what would become her dream career.
"That's my real name," Fashionette said with a smile. "People are like, 'Your mother named you that?' And I'm like, 'Yes.'"
Morrison said her mother named her Fashionette, because her husband dressed her nicely during her pregnancy. In addition, Fashionette was to be the last child her mother would have -- making it an occasion for a very special name.
Could Fashionette Morrison be the next Chanel Iman, who is a current African-American modeling darling? Although both young women have names steeped in haute couture imagery, Morrison has many challenges to face if she wants to make it in an industry that often comes under fire for stereotyping and under-utilizing women of color.
Despite this, Fashionette told theGrio that her mom and friends continue to encourage her to go for a career in the fashion world -- and she hopes to inspire other African-American girls as well.
In a special report, CNN has confirmed that Fashionette's optimism is a growing trend. More black models around the world believe the industry is becoming open to their brand of beauty....
