Jeneil ends 2018 with ‘VOGUE ESPAÑA’
Pulse supermodel kicks off 2019 with Vogue Portugal!
PULSE STAR Jeneil Williams ended a stellar 2018 with Vogue Spain, and kick-started 2019 with Vogue Portugal to herald a year of what could well be even greater success for the enduring model.
In just the last quarter of 2018, her major assignments included Vogue
España (14 pages), a new H&M sports campaign, Macy’s, Allure magazine (nine-page editorial with lenswoman Tina Tyrell), a double magazine editorial with photographer Daniel Weiff (eight pages) and the Gap holiday campaign.
The L’Oreal Infallible star also did a new 3Eme Annee iteration of Infallible at the end of the year. As a new H&M ambassador, Williams also did an online campaign, as well as the sports campaign. In addition to Vogue Portugal, (a six-page editorial lensed by Delphine Diallo), she started off the year shooting a new Calvin Klein spring/summer performance video. Williams is rated by Vogue as one of five Jamaicans who changed the face of global fashion. The others include agency colleague Nadine Willis and other greats such as Grace Jones and Stacey McKenzie. Williams is a double Vogue covergirl and has also graced the cover of i-D, Love, French and The Wall Street Journal. Without going into much detail, the model reveal that her next big project is likely to have a Jamaican genesis and a global impact. As always, her agency, Pulse, which launched her international career after her success in the Caribbean Model Search competition, is proud of her continued success, particularly of her ever-fresh appeal after a decade and a half in the major markets.
Over the years, Williams has achieved milestone after milestone, and while after such a long time in the industry, most careers would have started to wane, Williams’ keeps growing. Her incredible physique is highlighted in several Nike campaigns – a company that has embraced her not just as a model but also as the athlete she is and was while a student at Vere Technical High School.
In 2014, she became the first model from the Caribbean to snag a global cosmetics campaign when she copped Infallible by L’Oreal Paris. Williams’ legion of fans included late Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld (who shot her Pirelli calendar and Coke campaign).
Today, others such as highly influential stylist Katie Grand (who picked her for the cover of Love), famed photographer Mario Testino (who she met within a week of entering the international market), Steven Klein, and former model agent and fashion activist Beth-Ann Hardison (who interviewed her for Vogue’s Style TV), are among her fans.
Her long list of editorials includes Elle, Marie
Claire, Cosmo and W. Her campaigns include Jimmy Choo, Jean Paul Gaultier, Edun, Nordstrom, Calvin Klein, Motorola, Benetton, Baby Phat, Sephora, Victoria’s Secret, Top Shop and Aldo. She has also walked the runway for Burburry, Fendi, Vivienne Westwood, Louis Vuitton, Kenzo, Marc Jacobs, Isaac Mizrahi, Lanvin, Nariso Rodriquez, Nicole Miller, and Prada.
