NEW YORK, NY, July 24, 2012 (Press-News.org) In 1974, Beverly Johnson rose to fame in the modeling industry as the first black woman to appear on the cover of American Vogue. Decades later, a recent article highlights an interview Johnson had with Access Hollywood; she reflects on the many ways the industry has changed and the ever-present dangers that new models face. Phaze2 Models is a company that helps prospective models break into the market, by molding them into professionals that can meet agency and designer approval. The company realizes that there are several limitations that make modeling one of the most competitive careers in the world, but it also believes that through professional help, individuals can rise to the top.
One of the primary concerns that Beverly Johnson discusses in her interview is the "obsession with weight" that has plagued the fashion community in recent years. She explains, "Before, when we were models, we were the only ones thin and no one wanted to emulate us. Now, I guess because of the world that we live in, everybody wants to be thin. So, you really do have to be thin." Many clients who come to Phaze2 are reported to have unrealistic views of the modeling industry, some of which include weight. However, the company works hard to make sure clients learn about how the profession actually works and how to perform within it in a healthy manner.
Media Manager at Phaze2 Models, Kristina Villarini states, "For over 20 years, Phaze2 has not simply been an advocate for aspiring models and talent, but on behalf of the legitimacy and safety of development within the modeling industry." While Phaze2 and Beverly Johnson work to promote healthy images, the article also discusses how Vogue is pledging to use "healthy looking models" in its publications. However, just because the industry may be open to include a more diverse set of models that, according to Johnson, do not "have to starve themselves," it does not mean that training is not necessary.
Villarini compares modeling to professional athleticism, as both require expert instruction to perfect every facet of presentation and performance. She concludes, "Practice and professional guidance keeps athletes both safe and prepared. The modeling industry is no different. Phaze2's staff includes some of the most highly recommended and experienced specialists in the modeling business; that enables us to keep our child and adult clients' safe and in-demand among industry professionals."
