Hollywood Secret's Photos




























Hollywood Secrets Fashion Show

Mesha celebrating the end of her first show.
On May 16 after the rain cleared, JCJ&Co put on their first production “Hollywood Secrets” at Club Aqua. Jamesha Johnson and her team worked hard and diligently to put together an upscale event that celebrated her graduation from Virginia State University, Haus of Klyde’s Summer/Spring Collection, Shop Runway Couture, and new up and coming models.

The show was hosted by B Sounds the ADHD Bandit and he kept the energy of the crowd up and ready for the show. Unlike any other host I ever seen B Sounds was very personable with the crowd making the upbeat and fun filled. The show was opened by artist Woodz whose music kept not only B Sounds but the audience as well moving across the room.  Word says he will be seen on BET’s 106&Park in a few weeks, can’t wait to see what the future has for him.

Mesha started with her search for models early, using social networking, and word of mouth to find the perfect set of models. These models were seen on the flyer and were also used for promotion, having them go out and pass out flyers. She found models that were unique and humble, although this were most of their first show there was a high level of professionalism. The models bought life to the theme of the show, and bought energy and charisma to the runway. Of course my model Grace was seen on the runway with other runway divas such as, Tatyanna, and Natalie and new male models Nikkolai and Kasan. I credit the rest of the models on doing a great job.

The fashion seen in “Hollywood Secrets” directly reflected the theme and the audience of the show. JCJ&Co’s sexy women’s wear included lace crop tops, form fitting dress, and her men’s bowties. Haus of Klyde showed a mixture of his couture evening wear, and sexy cocktail dress, and along with his men’s wear styled and inspired by the 20’s. Shop Runway Couture showed a variety a RTW pieces in an array of trending textiles. The models also brought it with the own all black, and popping accessories.

Male Model Kasan was eager to shoot as well
My overall experience with JCJ&Co first fashion was both positive and relaxed. Never have I ever in my life as a designer trust someone to choose my song, and my line up for a show, but I knew Mesha would choose the perfect mix, and the perfect line up of models. Throughout the show Mesha was holding down the backstage, and keeping up with the high energy of the audience. I Look forward to being a part of every show produced by JCJ&Co.

Photo Shoot Friday Model Profile (Ced)

Ced has been my first male model after myself. Ive ways had issues with male models, using myself in images, and at shows and now I have Ced. Also one of my best friends Ced is definition of male model the first thing you will notice about him is great facial features. 
Ced hits the runway like any male model should with power and perfection. He was seen in my collection at Vsu's Spring Fling Fashion Show. Ced was also seen in the 3rd segment of Photo Shoot Fridays.
Ced likes to hide from the camera, but that what makes him the perfect model. With a few more shoots he will be a future underwear model. But he will always be an original Haus of Klude Model. 

  

Photo Shoot Fridays Model Profile (Amber)

Amber(FemaleBoner) struck me as the perfect urban model. She was obviously beautiful but had an essence of masculinity about her that made her even more attractive. I knew the camera would love her. 
Amber appeared In the first segment of Photo Shoot Fridays and rocked it. The hardcore rebel comes off very soft on camera and contrasted well..Almost like 
 Aaliyah in a way. 
She also worked well with Grace's dominant personality on camera, like a male model..
If and when Im her area me and Amber will shoot again.. Maybe I could get her in a gown.. Doubts 


Photo-shoot Fridays Model Profile (Jasmine)

Jasmine better known as "Skittles" is known as a runway goddess, but was a virgin at being behind the camera, but I saw the potential in her.
Skittles appeared in the 3rd Friday of Photo shoot  Fridays, but was perfect for the look the photographer wanted. Jasmines strong bone structure and wide set eyes made her a classic beauty, and with the smallest amount of effort could sell it  in a photo. 
Jasmine was also seen in the opening of my collection for Vsu's Spring Fling Fashion Show. Shes is looking forward to career in modeling and so am I.. For she will always will grace my runway.
