Fashion Designer: Noelle C. Tavares

Where were you born? Sacramento, CA
Where do you live? Sacramento, CA via everywhere.
When did you decide that this is what you want to do? When I was in my 3rd year in college, I met a student that wanted to go into a company together and we just kept having meetings, but there was never any progress. I decide to take matters into my own hands. I produced my very first fashion show, June of 2004 and the rest is history.
Are there any celebrities that you’ve worked with? Not yet…but the year is still young . =)
Which Celebrities fit your style, and that you would want to work with? I would love to see people like Kelis, Kid Cudi, Rihanna, Tracee Ellis Ross, Joy Bryant, Jean Grae,Keri Hilson,Electrik Red and Kid Sister in some Faedrah Clothing…I have a bigger list but that’s a few names that’s on my list.
Which celebrity could put on anything and look good? (male or female) I think Pharell can put on anything and make it look good…he can wear some sweatpants and a plain white tee and still look like a million bucks!!
Do you have a favorite color or fabric that you like to work with? And why? I am a color fanatic…every color of the rainbow is my favorite color. My favorite fabric is jersey material…I just like how it hugs and fits on the body. Especially if you have curves, it definitely brings it out.
What helps you get creative (music, people, movies)? I love going to different places and people watching…just checking out their style and peeping what’s stylish on the streets. I listen to a various number of artists and all genres of music. Music motivates me and gets my creative juices flowing. I have 3 movies I always turn to for inspiration whenever I get into a “creative stump”. My 3 “old faithfuls” are Party Girl (w/Parker Posey), Beat Street (Rae Dawn Chong cold rockin’ it) and last but not least The Wiz (the Emerald City scene with all the color changes and all the dancers is Halston-enough said!!)

Any projects coming up that we should know about? I am co-styling with an accessory company based out in Oakland for their commercial this month (hopefully it goes well), I have a few shows lined up in California for the next few months. I’m also a stylist so I have photo shoots lined up. I’m working on getting my clothing in store locations in Atlanta, New York, and San Francisco to name a few. Be on the lookout for www.faedrah916.com to launch this summer.

Shannon Williams: Model, Actress
February 14, 2009 by ldarien
Filed under Feature Model, Uncategorized

Location: Atlanta, Ga Occupation: Actress, Model Link: www.myspace.com/williasn Bio: One glance at Shannon M. Williams and you will understand why she is one of the most sought after new faces in today’s entertainment world. Her exotic features, coupled with the perfect hour glass figure leaves lasting first impressions. However, there is much more to this Ohio native than meets the eye. Growing up in Cincinnati, OH, a city not quite known for its diversity and culture, Shannon found a way to feed her gift and talent. In 2003, she was chosen from thousands of young women to compete in the Miss Ohio USA Pageant. Although she wasn’t selected, it was there she realized an affinity for the spotlight. Shannon spent the next couple of years modeling and hosting a local UPN Television show, gaining experience with each endeavor. However, her ambition was far greater than the opportunities that Cincinnati could provide. Shannon stepped out on faith, and moved to Atlanta, GA in June 2006. Immediately, she landed her first professional photo shoot and within a week was handpicked to shoot for a national advertisement campaign. The work kept rolling in. Within the past year, Shannon has modeled for Metro Styles hair magazine, shot a Pelle Pelle campaign, and graced the cover of the Bronner Brothers Fantasy magazine. Her television work has included modeling for BET’s Hip-Hop Awards and Rip the Runway. She worked on MTV’s/Nick Cannon’s Wild’N Out television show, and she also appeared in a national Dodge commercial. |
| Miss Williams has been very selective about the work she involves herself in. Many opportunities have been presented to her but when director Lil’ X called her to ask if she’d star as the lead actress in the Usher/R. Kelly ‘Same Girl’ video, she could not refuse. What attracted her most about that opportunity was the fact that she would have a chance to display her acting skills.So what is next for this beautiful model hailing from the state that brought us Jayne Kennedy, and Halle Berry (both former Miss Ohio USA candidates as well)? Currently Shannon is wrapping up on a pilot episode of a new series entitled ‘The A’. This adult drama featuring Clifton Powell and Eva Pigford is in the spirit of HBO’s Sex in the City and Entourage, however focusing on African Americans living in Atlanta. Shannon plays the lead, Brooke Rivers, a young lady who has the city of Atlanta in the palm of her hand. On set, Miss Williams has displayed a strong work ethic, screen presence, and tremendous acting ability, which will make her transition from model to actor a smooth one.
While not judging the book by its cover… Although stunningly gorgeous, it is what Shannon M. Williams is made of that proves she is a star; her tenacity guarantees that her star will shine for years to come. |
