Tami Williams

Absolutely terrible campaign. Tami is serving though. Crop her out and lose every single other element of the the campaign and you've got a winner.


My thoughts exactly! Kmt. It's as if the photographer didn't want her in the campaign AT ALL. She barely makes it into the frames and is always outside all the major/central action. If this were a film, in the credits, she'd simply be, 'girl'. So...like...ugh what's the point?

What are you talking about? She's the only black girl in the campaign, she's the only one actually modeling and is front and center in her black outfit.

And I'm pretty sure, they got inspired of this backstage shot of her during the SS15 show for the whole collection/campaign for Fall-Winter.

Just sayin'

So your argument she's a standout is due to the fact she's, and I quote: the only black girl in the campaign, she's the only one actually modeling and is front and center in her black outfit. Really? I find that very first degree.

Her inclusion is an achievement I won't deny. But my recrimination of the campaign speaks to her use/placement in the (frames) as whole, i.e. the 3 photos posted here. Not just the one photo. I don't know what your frames of reference are, but for me it feels like an appeasement/acquiescence of sorts.

Ok, say I give you center. But front? :huh: She’s the furthest from camera man. So that makes her more upper center or (upper) upper stage, if we're to borrow theatre terminology.

In the first photo she's practically indistinguishable from the border; and in the second, it's like she's #photobombed a family reunion.

Plus in such a dynamic setting where everyone else is interacting, I find her aloofness - and in no way do I put this on Tami - distracting, her presence contrived and incongruent with the vibe and harmony of the rest of the picture. Which sadly, makes her resemble a filler/token girl.

I'll resign to agree to disagree. It’s a notch for her career and resumé...and if I’m not mistaken, she’s now the second Jamaican to snag a campaign for the twosome. So for that, I’m content.

What a terrific editorial. All the girls look stunning, but Tami is shining bright like a diamond! Even among the most beautiful girls in the world, Tami manages to stand apart from the crowd.

I'm so obsessed with this beauty! There is absolutely no reason Tami shouldn't be the #1 girl working in the business right now. She just doesn't have a flaw. Glad she booked a campaign, and I'm glad to see the editorial work piling up. She's one big cover away from become the superstar she's destined to be.
