Re: If Vogue Africa Existed...
Just those mock-ups, Bizi.
Here are some other African models.
<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">Hawa Ahmed competed in the Swedish Next Top Model competition and walked away the grand prize winner.</span> It is no surprise that she won, as she is beautiful, graceful, and intelligent.
Originally from Somalia, she moved with her family to Sweden to get away from the unrest in her homeland. Her humility is refreshing, and her style unforgettable. Enjoy these pictures of her.</span>

Hi every one. Basically I am PROUDLY South African. I have been in the modelling industry for 6 years now. I am passionate about modelling, and especially african models. My role model is the Ethopian, Liya Kebede. She inspires me so much! It is my dream to pursue modelling as a full time profession and represent my country at the same time.Too many people have misconceptions about Africa and I would like to be one of those to set them straight. We are beautiful, beautiful people and it’s about time they recognise!Comment

<span style="font-weight: bold">Nunu Wako </span>
<span style="font-style: italic">Ethiopia</span>
My name is NuNu Wako and I am an Ethiopian-born American-raised young African woman who has accomplished many achievements. As a model, I was the 2005 Nautica Jeans & Vibe Magazine National U.S. Model Search winner, I have been featured in magazines as such Blackmen 2005 April issue as the center fold as well as being named one of the 101 Sexiest Women of Color in America in the September 2005 Issue, gracing the Cover of W.E.T (Washington, Entertainment Tap) magazine, ShOW Magazine 2008 July issue to haven done very selective Videos such as Tabi Bonney’s ‘Syce‘ it to being one of the 8 faces for Kiss Make-Up 2006/2008 as well as being one of the faces for Vanessa Wigs. I have also been featured as a beauty in Hype Hair magazine, have done numerous fashion shows for clothing lines such as Baby Phat, Sean Jean, Roca Wear, to commercials for companies such as DTLR, as well as several others.
Despite my accomplishments, my ultimate endeavor is to bring Africa to the forefront through Africa in Demand a talk show on the internet (for right now). I am one of the hosts as well as my partners. As an African woman, it is my passion and duty to help educate the world on Africa, the continent and the diverse people and cultures encompassed in this vast continent. Being raised in America as a daughter of a political exile has opened my mind to the ignorance that the American society are faced with when it comes to the struggles, success and development of Africa. My ultimate goal through Africa in Demand is to educate those who are uneducated. I have my eye set on conquering the world and accomplishing my dreams while helping those that need help the most.Comment

Supermodel/Actress <span style="font-weight: bold">Amanda Annan</span>: Beauty Inside Out
British supermodel Amanda Annan may have entered into modelling by chance but her career so far has been nothing short of amazing. The slinky beauty says she did not choose modelling but modelling chose her. While working part time in a clothing store at age 16, she was head hunted by the world famous Unique Model Management agency. Within two weeks Amanda was shooting her first campaign for Vidal Sassoon. With her beauty and grace, it was not before long she started flying round the world for shoots and runway assignments in London, Paris, Milan and New York.
Amanda’s origin is as interesting as her career: her father is from Ghana and his father moved to Ghana as a child from Brazil in search of his roots; while her mother is from Martinique but grew up in Lagos. However Amanda was adopted at a young age and grew up in London. As the niece of Kofi Annan, she picked up plenty ambassadorial traits which she deploys in a number of charitable organizations like the Campaign for Female Education (CAMFED), as well raising money for the African Film Commission.
After gracing the covers of magazines like Elle Magazine, Women to Women, Photo Magazine and Fashion News, Amanda has also ventured into new territories including acting and broadcasting among others. Jamati Online caught up with Amanda to find out more about her career as a model, her desire to help the least fortunate, her ambitions and many other things that make her tick.Comment
