R'el Dade

[ottawa]

It think she did have an exclusive for their couture show and she walked for the house again in the S/S 2010 season plus Hermes, Jean Paul Gaultier, Dior, Armani, and Marc by Marc Jacobs

^Well, we all know that. All I wanna know is where did she go? Was she not able to travel to Milan & Paris? I mean, no matter how commercial this girl might be portrayed, she still belongs on the runway. She has legs for ages.

A beautiful young sophisticate from Dallas, Texas, who stands out. Vogue It

Because she is the only one of her siblings that is model type, has a name that sounds like an old movie star, Rel Dade, doesn't have a Texan accent and is really tall. Last season was her first outing as a fashion model in NY. She did Valentino Couture exclusively in Paris. Since then she has walked for Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Hermès, Onne Titel, Marc by Marc Jacobs to name a few and has done editorials for Interview magazine, Vogue, ID, Numero, Zoo and Trace, so far.

It's interesting to see someone who has just started, and have the confidence and poise which is rare, no doubt this is a plus and beneficial in a industry that is people driven. As she talks about participating in a recent project that gave her the opportunity to work with "young kids" (her same age) she knew she had inspired their potential. I could see she too was inspired.

She talks about it with such pride, helping others seems to be her destination. She clearly knows what she wants, and to be a nurse is the plan when the glamourous life fades. I left Rel feeling like I had met someone quite special.

Wow what happened to her? She was the toast of SS 2010 and now nothing!

i think she would've been amazing as a victoria secret angel rather than chanel iman, imo. R'el at least has a gorgeous body and beauty to match it.

^^ I smiled when I saw this. Totally different yet 'un-corny'

R'el looks stunning in those recent editorials!

That fifth pic would have made a stunning cover! And I totally disagree about switching her with Chanel. Chanel has that bubbly personality and spirit plus that body and face that will make her very successful as an Angel(which she isn't quite yet). Plus she is pretty well known among people who don't even follow fashion; especially in the african american community. But hell I think there's more than enough room for both of them....... but that will probly never happen!
