Natalie Suliman

Natalie Suliman is a 24 year old, British model signed to Leni’s Model Management. She is absolutely stunning with a body to die for, and has hit billboards and magazines all over the country for Marks and Spencer lingerie, dressed in their famous green, two piece underwear suit. Although Natalie is still so young, she has already had her own six page spread in OK magazine, been photographed by Alisa Conan for U.S. Maxim magazine, attended Elton John's charity fundraiser ball, and been invited to many other high profile events. She is the next big thing and is already very much in demand - so watch this space.....

I wanted to find out more about this rising star so I asked her:

  • Favourite city? "London/Paris"
  • Country girl or city girl? "City girl"
  • Fashion icon? "Gwen staffani"
  • Night in or night out? "Night in"
  • Coffee or tea? "Coffee"
  • Summer or winter? "Summer"

  • Book or magazine? "Book"
  • Action or drama? "Drama"
  • Sweet or savoury? "Savoury"
  • Text or phone call? "Phone call"

  • And finally what can we find you doing when you are not modelling? - "Youth work and fitness, have started training - and love it!"


Jade McSorley

Beautiful Jade McSorley, known for being one of the three finalists on Britain’s next top model, is becoming a big success. Jade signed to the Models 1 agency after the show in 2009, and has gone from strength to strength modelling for Urban outfitters, My Wardrobe.com and Bank Clothing to name a few. Most recently Jade has modelled for luxury lingerie company Tallulah Love, showcasing their new vintage collection.
But Jades big break came when she shot the Swatch campaign with renowned photographer Rankin and from there she has been unstoppable. Jade is definitely one to watch for the future.

So I asked this rising star some quick fire questions.

  • Favourite city? "London at the minute, as I’m living here"
  • country girl or city girl? "City"
  • Fashion icon? "Hippies in general"
  • Favourite designer? "Stella McCartney"
  • Night in or night out? "Night in with the girls with lots of treats"
  • Coffee or tea? "Tea"
  • Summer or winter? "Summer"
  • Catwalk or photo-shoot? "Catwalk"
  • Heels or flats? "Heels"
  • Book or magazine? "Too difficult, I love reading"
  • Action or drama? "Action"
  • Sweet or savoury? "Sweet every time"
  • Text or phone call? "Phone call"
  • Documentary or soap? "Documentary"
  • And finally what can we find you doing when you are not modelling? "Raking through vintage and charity shops for amazing finds"


Zazoe

Zazoe is a 17 year old Dutch model, signed to Leni’s model management. If you don’t already recognise her face then, remember it from now on because you will be seeing much more of her. She is so young but with her porcelain skin and beautiful features it is no wonder why she is already successful. She is the new face of Pantene globally as shot by Rankin; she featured in YOU magazine and most recently walked for the Caroline Charles show, which was one of the first shows to kick off London fashion week.

So I got down to business and asked Zazoe…..
 

  • Favourite city? "Tokyo/London/ Paris"
  • Country girl or city girl? "City girl"
  • Fashion icon? "Coco Chanel"
  • Night in or night out? "Night out"
  • Coffee or tea? "Tea"
  • Summer or winter? "Summer"
  • Catwalk or photo-shoot? "Photo-shoot"
  • Heels or flats? "Heels"
  • Book or magazine? "Magazine"
  • Action or drama? "Drama"
  • Sweet or savoury? "Savoury"
  • Text or phone call? "Text"
  • Documentary or soap? "Documentary"
  • And finally what can we find you doing when you are not modelling? "Dancing".


Betty Adewole

Betty Adewole has only been with the models1 agency since November 2008 and has hit the industry with a major force. She has beautiful flawless skin, piercing eyes and legs that go on for miles. She has shot for the Bunmi Olaye campaign and has been in great demand for editorial shoots for top magazines. She has graced the covers of 125, Arise and ES Magazine. She has also modelled at ASOS, British vogue and Net-a-porter to name a few.

Betty walked in her first season of London Fashion week 2009 for PPQ whilst featuring in the presentations of Lp.Bg, Marcus Constable and Jasmine Di Milo. Her second season was another huge hit with a presentation for Mulberry and off schedule shows for Pam Hogg and Ramon Gurillo. As well as modelling Betty has worked alongside the charity organisers for Comic Relief and the BBC, and it seems there is just no stopping this British beauty.

I wanted to find out a bit more about Betty so I asked her….

  • Favourite city? "London"
  • Country girl or city girl? "City girl"
  • Fashion icon? "Grace Jones, Nathan Jenden"
  • Night in or night out? "Night out"
  • Coffee or tea? "Tea"
  • Summer or winter? "Winter"
  • Catwalk or photo-shoot? "Photo-shoot"
  • Heels or flats? "Flats"
  • Book or magazine? "Magazine"
  • Action or drama? "Drama"
  • Sweet or savoury? "Sweet"
  • Text or phone call? "Text"
  • Documentary or soap? "Documentary"
  • And finally what can we find you doing when you are not modelling? "Skateboarding, singing and hanging out with friends".


Malaika Gossage

Malaika Gossage is a British model signed to Leni’s model management. She is fronting the new Rimmel London campaign, so is definitely one to watch out for, as the likes of Kate Moss and Lily Cole have all fronted the Rimmel campaign. Malaika has the potential to be just as big. With beautiful glowing skin and perfect features it’s only a matter of time. She is also the new face of Fearne Cotton’s VERY range for Littlewoods, and if that’s not enough, to add to her ever growing credentials, she has just been invited to become an Ambassador of The Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund. So get a good look at Malaika because I have a feeling she is going to have a long and successful career ahead of her.

I wanted to ask Malaika some quick fire questions about herself……

  • Country girl or city girl? "City girl"
  • Fashion icon? "Alexa Chung, Christian Lacroix"
  • Night in or night out? "Nights in"
  • Coffee or tea? "Tea"
  • Summer or winter? "Summer"
  • Catwalk or photo-shoot? "Photo-shoot"
  • Heels or flats? "Heels"
  • Book or magazine? "Magazine"
  • Action or drama? "Action"
  • Sweet or savoury? "Sweet"
  • Text or phone call? "Phone call"
  • Documentary or soap? "Documentary"
  • And finally what can we find you doing when you are not modelling? "Hmmmm......when I'm not modelling I'm visiting family and friends home and abroad or I'm plotting my next adventure :-) "
