Williams produces stunning Pirelli, Diet Coke gigs
This is the fifth of a six-part feature on Pulse supermodel Jeneil Williams. Williams has not only become one of the most recognisable supermodels in the world, but is arguably the most successful cover girl that the Caribbean has produced. She will lead the line-up of models at Caribbean Fashionweek in June and is certain to capture the attention of press and fashionistas in attendance from around the globe.
Last year, fashion legend Karl Lagerfeld discovered Pulse supermodel Jeneil Williams. He immediately fell in love with her beauty, radiance and style. In short order, he shot her for Pirelli, long known as the world's hottest calendar, year in, year out. The launch of the calendar in Russia was a standout event, attended by a virtual who's who of the European fashion majors. Williams, specially invited for the launch, enjoyed pride of place.
As if that were not enough, in early 2011, Lagerfeld again chose Williams for a key assignment, this time his new Diet Coke campaign, produced in Karl Lagerfeld-branded limited edition. Yet again, Williams had arrived at a new place, a new level of success.
Williams started the year on fire. In a single week at the beginning of 2011, she shot the Diet Coke campaign, two different editions of Vogue, the Giles Deacon campaign and attended her second Pirelli launch in Paris as guest of honour.
Now, there is clearly no stopping this sizzling star. Speaking from her New York base this past week, Williams said she was delighted with her success. Now, she feels she is really beginning to live her dream.
Heavyweight gigs
Williams' campaigns have been heavyweight gigs that have included the likes of Benetton (her first, done two years in a row), Nordstrom, Victoria's Secret, Jawbone Bluetooth, Aldo, Loewe, L'Oreal, I.N.C., Macy's, Baby Phat, Top Shop, Bloomingdales, Motorola Europe and Target.
Always a pacesetter, the style maven continues to do her local and international agencies proud with her varied triumphs and accomplishments. Her growth and prowess are demonstrated with the publication of each cover, editorial spread and lead campaign. Williams was discovered by Pulse in 2005 through the Caribbean Model Search exercise. Over the past week, we have seen more than a glimpse of her range and quality. Seems the best is yet to come.
