July Week 2 Models

Siddhart Sohmers
Siddhart Sohmers must have heard it?? no? dang! You will in future!!! I mean it! (oki it was from a movie lol)I am basically mmmm nice guy not best but also not worst LOL. I love to talk alot as many of my friends and family say. I joke around, talk to anyone about anything, a sucker of beauty and anything that catches my interest.I am an estate agent here who is trying to make his mark into modelling :)JCNY for me is a place where I got to meet some real good people who listenend to me go on blah blah without complaining about it!!!Standing on this side of runway and not otherside is all i wanted ever since i first came here.And now standing on this side of runway and not other side, it is so great feeling. A real GOOD feeling.

Pat Young

Firstly, I must thank JD and the judges for selecting me it is always a pleasure to be on the JCNY Model. My name is Pat Young, I would describe myself as being honest, sincere, relatively inventive and maybe too out spoken and tenacious at times but in a positive way. I love meeting new people and working hard in sl but I play hard too. JCNY is really the place to be for aspiring models.

Pandora Teodosio
This is first time I take a part in event like this. I found JCNY, when my fiance gaved me engagement ring. It was wonderful, so I decided to see what more can I find in JCNY. And I fell in love with this store. Even if I do not have money I like to go there and look arround. This Fest is so far the greatest experience in my second life. I Love meeting new people. I love to have fun. So,I hope to see You all there;) Thanks for giving me the chance...Kisses

Michela Benazzi
Hello and thank You to the wonderful people at JCNY for allowing me to walk yet another step in my modeling career! it is not only an honor but exciting to be apart of such a huge part of the SL Modeling and Fashion industry. This is my second time on the runway, and I have to admit this is so much fun! As a print and runway model here in SL, I am truly blessed. With over 300 looks, the variety, vanity, and pure creativity of what one person can achieve here in SL is in my opinion an outlet that puts SL modeling on a plateau RL models will never be able to experience. The luxury of changing ones skin, hair, eyes in just a matter of seconds is something that makes SL a models paradise. Since I started modeling almost a year ago, I have met so many wonderful people, and have had the privilege to wear some of the best designs the fashion world has been blessed with. JCNY being among the leaders in accessories and jewelry. Never mind simply diamonds, the designs of JD Hansen can easily be one of a girls best friends!

Melancholia Roux
Being selected once again as a runway model for JCNY's Model'Fest has been one of my greatest accomplishments in SL. For the past few months I have been working hard to better my modeling career and interviewing with agencies and I definitely feel that being selected to be a runway model three times since I began a month ago has helped me so much that it is hard to put into words. Not to mention JCNY's jewelry and what it is like to be able to wear such masterpieces of incredible work. Thank you for selecting me one more time and hope there are many more to come.


Lynn Kristan

What an honor to have been chosen as a JCNY Showcase model for the second time. I can't begin to describe how wonderful JCNY is. Not only in its superb quality of product but just as a company in whole. The store employees go out of their way to help you and everyone involved with JCNY are such wonderful people. It has been an amazing journey so far and I am so very grateful for the opportunity to have made great friends and to have so much fun each and every day.

Jeab Kungler

Almost 2 years I had been in sl, I enjoy meeting wonderful people here and try interesting things. English might not be my first language but I still continue learing and people here don't mind to be pation with me . Now I work at the clinic in sl to guide people how to get pregnant in this world. I can see people are happy most of the time. That must be because baby brings joy to any life. I' m so honor to be part of JCNY MODEL'FEST July 2009 and it's my pleasure to be here. I always admire fashion and style and like to work in this industry someday as model in sl. I don't know how to begin; however, I found that this will be a great opportunity to learn and get more experience than school can give. I met some amazing models who taught me how to be a good model. I would like to thank all of them. The most important, I want to thank JCNY to give me this amazing opportunity to be part of fashion adventure.

Glitter Bolissima
Thank you so much JD and judges for choosing me to come back to your runway. I have made so many friends here at the JCNY Model'fest and really enjoy every minute of it! My career had grown a lot since my first Model'fest, including winning Ms SL International. No matter if I have a photo shoot or a runway show, I always turn to my JCNY jewelry collection and know that will look the best! I now have set higher goals for myself and I hope months from now I can be back here and blog them! :)

Gabriella Trefusis

Hello :) My name is Gabriella Trefusis. Wow, it is such an incredible honor to be chosen for the first time as a showcase model. This has been a goal of mine as a model for quite some time. My impression of JCNY is they represent elegance and sophistication. Their jewelry consists of nothing short of great quality. Thank you so much again for this opportunity JCNY!

Emma Portillo

First, thank you to JD and the judges for selecting me as a Showcase Model. It is an honor and privilege to be selected for a second time to represent such a high quality company as I work to establish myself in the modeling world. JCNY's dedication to the fashion industry is as apparent as the shine of their jewels! Their pieces are an outstanding compliment to any wardrobe, from every day fashion to the highest of style. For me, because of their diversity and quality, they cover all spectrums of the fashion world. Thank you JCNY, for helping to promote the fashion industry and modeling, as well as providing the best in cusotmer service. JCNY is truly an industry leader!

Clif Sharktooth First I would like to thank JD and the Judges for the oppertunity to once again showcase my fashion sense and modeling talents. Without MODEL'FEST many talented models would go unnoticed.Through this wounderful idea we as models have the ability to be creative at the same time show case our modeling skills. Being surrounded by so much talent any model new or veteran can see the competition is fierce.The contacts from working as a Showcase model are priceless. For that I am truly greatful to be given the oppertunity.I would also like to Congradulate our new Runway managers.Sparkie I would like to thank you for all the direction and patciene you have shown me, you are truly a blessing

Darling Tomorrow Hello, my name is Darling Tomorrow and I am honored and thrilled to be once again recognized as a JCNY model for the month of July. I have been on SL going on two years now and love every minute of it. I am proud to be an SL Mentor and love helping our new residents. The best part of SL is the fashion! I love the fashion industry, the creativity of the designers and the beautiful jewelry at JCNY. I am proud to say I own many of the JCNY Collections and love wearing them. Once again, I am truly grateful and honored to be a model for JCNY Model Fest. Another opportunity to walk the runway and show off my beautiful jewelry. Thank you.

Aeiron Dexing

Thank you so much for inviting me to participate as a showcase model for week 2, it is an honor to have been given the chance to represent a company as well known and high quality as JCNY whose products include some of the best jewelry accessories I have seen for both men and women in SL. As a relatively new member of the second life fashion community having entered this competition has provided me with an outlet to showcase myself as a model, while also providing me with an enjoyable photography project to work on which is something I have recently taken up as a hobby. To me SL fashion is mostly about expressing creativity as designers, models, or even photographers and I enjoy shopping around to find different and sometimes exotic or extravagant designs while working both in front of and at times behind the camera to create pictures which I feel capture the looks as I envision them. Once again thank you for running this competition and selecting me to take part on the runway, the opportunity is much appreciated and the people I've met here have been fantastic.

July week one models!

Bunny TomorrowHello all JCNY and fashion addicts! I'm very happy too be back on this blog again. The Model fest award was lovely as usual, and I was happily surprised too hear my name announced as the winner of the June contest, its a dream come true for me. I would like too thank JD and all the judges for deciding me as the winner. Have a happy summer time all of you. Love from Bunny Tomorrow.

Hermione MochaI am so happy to have been chosen as a Wild Card Show case model for the 1st week of July. Being up on the run way has given me the opportunity to meet loads of new friends, and make excellent contacts as well! I can not thank JCNY enough for having this wonderful event each month. It has been a wonderful experience.
Xxx
Ien RouxBefore I begin talking about myself, I will first thank the judges for allowing me to come back for a second time. I enjoyed my first time as a showcase model and would not shy away from future opportunities to show my talent should they be presented to me. My approach to modeling and anything in this world for that matter is to innovate with my style of dress and theme of photos. I am not the one to follow the crowd and always jump at the chance to be creative. Yes, I can play by the rules but at the same time, I like to play by the rules with a twist. So, in other words, I like to be original. I believe that keeps things both fresh and exciting. I enjoy working with others and giving them more than they expect. I also believe that a positive/healthy attitude can be anyone's asset in this field. So what else does JCNY mean to me? I already know that JCNY is a fine establishment with top notch staff which is necessary to run such a successful organization. I am sure JCNY will be around for a very long time.
Xxx
Lynn KristanWhat an honor to be chosen as a JCNY Showcase model. I have had the most wonderful experiences on SL from meeting some really great friends, including the love of my life, and now this great opportunity. I have already met such wonderful people through this experience and it gets better each day. If someone asked me what I thought of JCNY, the first word that would come to mind is elegance. The jewelry is the most amazing on SL and just absolutely magnificent in quality and beauty. Thank you for giving me this chance to be around such a great place and great people everyday.

Maryn ZenovkaThis is my third time participating on the Model 'Fest runway as a showcase model, and it was been a HUGE honor each and every time! My Second Life has been focused on Fashion, modeling, and a chance to finally live my dreams. JCNY has greatly inspired me to pursuit modeling in Second Life from the time I saw the first contest ads around August, 2007. For me, aside from having some of the finest crafted jewelry in Second Life, JCNY feels like home. There is no place I'd rather be than on the Model 'Fest runway!

Litya BarbosaHi, I'm Litya, I’ve been here for around 2 1/2 years. When I first started modeling I was a little in doubt because when I saw fashion shows & compared myself to what I’ve done I wasn't as good as them. But when I saw my first JCNY show it made me enthused it made me want to model more & say "wow I want to do that" & so now I did. It made me want to strive to do better which I’m a lot better then when I started off. Of course I would like to thank JCNY for picking me to be a showcase model & how they inspired me to be a better model.
Xxx
Kiki DevinHello again =) I am Kiki Devin and I am thrilled to be once again picked to be a JCNY Showcase Model for the 3rd week. I am new to the modeling circuit on SL and I am loving it! Thank you for this chance yet once again. JCNY brings one word to my mind, Elegant, recently my husband gifted me the JennaRicci collection from the vault and I never want to take it off! It goes perfect with every outfit I choose. As well as every creation in the store.
Xxx
Pyper DollingerWow to be here again is just such an honor for me. I have truly made some wonderful friends this week and have shared the runway with so many beautiful ladies and very handsome men! JD Hansen is an amazing designer and lets us all share our fashion sense. As you ask what JCNY means to me I can tell you style, sophistication, beauty and versatility. The opportunities that are given to the most beautiful and fashionable people in SL is one that is to be found nowhere else. The hard work that each and every one of them put into the hottest fashions and grace are displayed right on the Showcase Runway. I am a Director of the SPIRIT Dazzlers Cheer/Dance Team and a Runway and print model and I just want to say thank you so much to everyone that has ever given me tips, criticism and hope to be the best I can. This is truly what it is all about!

Marcella MorningtonHi once again! I thought that the world started with a big bang the first of this year when I was chosen for my very first Model Fest; now I am ecstatic . . Thanks again to JD Hansen and her sponsors for allowing me once again to grace their runway as a Wildcard Model once again. I must say that this has been one fantastic year so far . JD has put out some very beautiful sets for the ladies of SL to wear and I am sure that she is not done yet. Gowns are out this month and other bits of fashion will be seen on the runway at Farrah so be sure to come and check out how the models have used JD's fantastic jewels with the clothing they have chosen to wear. See Ya soon at Model Fest.

June final week of models!

Delilah ZimerEach piece of JCNY jewelry and accessory is flawlessly beautiful and I am happy and excited to be on the JCNY runway modeling these as a JCNY Showcase Model. Each day I have participated in the JCNY Model 'Fest so far has been an exciting new beginning for me. I have been working on my appearance and on my modeling and I see myself evolving as a person and as a model. I have met some great people while being on the JCNY runway, made some beautiful friendships and I am just happy I decided to join Model 'Fest.

Jacqualine LunaseaHello everyone! Being selected as a JCNY model of the week has been a terrific honour. JCNY has been a part of my SL experience since I started a few years ago. Modeling in SL is not new to me as I owned my own modeling agency for a bit and always referred people to JCNY for their jewelry needs and I have been fortunate enough to have met my RL love on SL who proposed to me with JCNY rings which I now proudly wear as his wife. So, as you can see, JD's creations have played a huge part in my Second Life and I am happy to be a part of their modeling program.

Jenna Baddingham
Hello JCNY Readers. My name is Jenna Baddingham and I am fairly new to SL and very new to modeling so I can honestly say being selected as a JCNY Showcase Model is my greatest accomplishment in SL to date. Thank You so much JCNY for giving me this opportunity to make new friends, establish contacts and learn more about modeling in SL. JCNY was the first premier fashion designer I discovered in SL and I was truly awestruck the first time I browsed its aisles, not to mention the vault!. The quality of craftsmanship that goes into every piece is breathtaking and I love to wear my JCNY jewelry with any outfit I own. JCNY is always my first stop when looking for jewelry or accessories and I recommend then to my friends. Once again, Thank You JCNY for giving me this opportunity!

Clif SharktoothI would like to take this opportunity again to thank JCNY for putting on Model Fest and giving everyone the chance to present themselves in a way which will create a much larger and better fashion industry in SL. I am honored to be chosen as a showcase model for the second time week 3 and week 4. Working the runway has given me a entirely new outlook on my goals. They have not changed any, in fact it has only inspired me to work harder to achieve my goal as becoming a top model in the industry. Thank you to the judges as well as JD Hansen for the opportunity. Thank you so very, very much.

Chaotic MondayDuring my short Second Life, I have been blessed to be able to model for Jamie Rozenberg's Well Versed, and now the JCNY Collection. I feel extremely lucky to have these opportunities to represent the average woman, of real size and curves. To me, JCNY is the epitome of class and elegance, realistically recreating the most fashionable yet classic jewelry pieces from our first lives to carry over to our Second Life. I am honored and ecstatic to have my name associated with them, and I hope for a long and prosperous future together.
Xxx
Hermione MochaI am overly excited to have been chosen to be a showcase model for both week 3 & 4 ! I can not describe the joy I feel when I am up on the run way. In one word, the experience is PRICELESS! I would like to Thank JCNY and all the sponsors for offering this amazing and wonderful opportunity for aspiring models in SL.
Xxx
Melancholia RouxOh my my my......what a wonderful treat to have been picked yet again to be a "Showcase Model" for the JCNY runway during the MODEL'FEST Expo. Last week on the runway I didn't think it could get much better.....I was wrong!!! To begin with, thank you so much for giving me this opportunity to present and express myself in such an elegant way, to wear and show off JCNY's beautiful jewelry and accessories, to meet others in SL who too would like to venture into the glamorous and exciting world of second life modeling and the chance for Top Model . Thank you to JCNY and all that are a part of this process. I hope to see many of you again strutting your gorgeous self on the runways.

Michela BenazziHello, my name is Michela Benazzi and I am humbled to have been chosen as one of the JCNY Showcase models for the month of June. As a print and runway model here in SL I aspire to obtain goals once thought unreachable. JCNY has offered wonderful opportunities for not only myself, but for several models in SL. It is an honor and a privilege to be chosen to be associated with an elite name such as JCNY. An industry leader in beauty, quality and fashion, JCNY is simply put, the best of the best, what everyone wants to be.
Xxx
Vivienne DarcyHow exciting to find that I had been selected as a JCNY Showcase Model! As the model director for SL Illustrated, I work with some of the best models in SL who understand the importance of creating a distinctive style. JCNY jewelry is one of the ways we create that style--the only problem we have is not being able to stop shopping! :) Thank you, JCNY, for giving us a beautiful way to adorn ourselves!
Xxx
Yue FalconerI'm still a bit new in SL and just starting my modeling career here, and this is my first achievement as a model. I'm very glad and thankful that JCNY and to JD Hansen for giving me this rare opportunity ^_^. JCNY for me is very unique in its own way, they made each product looks like real the passion and the talent shows right into it ^_^. Second life fashion industry will be incomplete without the fine jewelries of JCNY ^_^
Xxx
Jen TaflerI am so excited to be selected as a finalist for the JCNY Model'Fest. My career has expanded and I am happy to be a runway model for DeJaVu Modeling Agency, Fashion Trend and Fashion In-Look. To top this off, this week has been another amazing journey. Not only was I selected as a finalist for the JCNY Model'Fest, but I am starting my training with Elegance International Model Agency and was accepted as a live model for Stilletto Moody. As for my feelings about JCNY, the first time I landed in JCNY I fell in love - and I haven't stopped. The detail and realism is unmatched and I always look forward to new releases. No matter your occasion, you can always find the perfect piece of jewelry at JCNY. I am honored to be selected as part of the June 2009 JCNY Modelfest. Thank you JD Hansen and the JCNY Team for allowing me to be a part of the Modelfest family.

Natalia CorvaleI've been in SL for close to two years now and I am constantly amazed by the passion and creativity that this virtual world inspires in people. Both a model and photographer, I have met some of the most interesting and extraordinary people from all corners of the world. I've made friends and bonds here that are just as real and tangible as they are in real life. I feel blessed to have such a fascinating place to explore and create and I am nothing less than completely honored to have been chosen as a JCNY showcase model. Their designs are simply stunning and the quality speaks for itself. Their commitment to excellence shows in each and every piece of jewelry they offer. My most humble thanks and appreciation goes out to everyone and anyone that is a part of JCNY for this very special and unique opportunity.

Jovial JewellHello! I am so honored to have been chosen as a JCNY Showcase model for the first time. I love JCNY jewelry. They have so many styles that match so many different types of outfits. I'd like to JCNY for this opportunity. Also to Zeta Pieck and Rumour Market, for teaching me so much when I first started modeling. I owe an other big thank you to Marienna Cortes. She listens to, supports, and encourages me in everything and I appreciate that so much. I have been modeling for a while on SL. I started with In Pose and am now with SLGlam and The Other Modeling Agency. I enjoy all types of modeling. Again, let me say thank you to JCNY and JD Hansen. I am so excited by this opportunity!
Xxx
Kiki DevinHello again =) I am Kiki Devin and I am thrilled beyond words to be invited back again to be a showcase model. This experience has brought me many things, I have met some wonderful friends here and have learned quite a bit. Thank you JD, Rhi and Sparkie for this chance once again. JCNY can be summed up in one word ..Elegant.. I enjoy every piece that I own. You can find the perfect piece of jewelry to make the outfit you wear shine. A day without my JCNY accessories is like a day without sunshine..

Slowly BuryMy name is Slowly Bury, I have been a resident for two years. Three of my favorite pastime on Second Life are, taking and developing my photography, exploring the fashion world, and writing. These thing allow me to learn but also tend to my creative nature. In addition to these thing I enjoy cruising the art world of Second Life and meeting fellow Artist. To me JCNY means fashion forward. I think its amazing to see something you can easily see in our 1st lives that’s accessible to us in our 2nd lives.

June Week 3 Showcase Models

Bunny TomorrowHello everyone, many of you already know who I am, for those who don't know me yet, my name is Bunny Tomorrow. Once again I'm honored too be part of the JCNY contest among with all the other beautiful models.Too be on the JCNY catwalk is always very exciting and fun. And a great way too get news about fashion and modeling, and also met new interesting people. Thanks for the Judges for have chosen me too be part of this contest once again. And i also like too thank you JD, for making such amazing jewels, "diamonds are a girls best friend" and the JCNY diamonds make you feel beautiful and classy.

AliceGrace Nachtigal I am a bit new to Second Life, but I quickly developed a love for the games constantly growing fashion industry. Being a cosmetologist in real life keeps me constantly focused on the fashion world, and I am very excited to be able to share that passion and interest with others; whom without Second Life I may never have had an opportunity to meet. JCNY is especially important to me because jewelry creation is a hobby of mine, and I love to find all sources of inspiration. I noticed that Second Life designers seem to be more willing to push the boundaries, and try things that real life designers may not be so willing to attempt; creating an endless stream of boundary pushing designs. To me there is nothing more exciting on Second Life than the SL Fashion Industry!
Xxx
Amanda Hinchcliffe Some know me as a model in stores. Others know me as a model for Fashion-In-Look, or Model & Trainer for Reflections. Many know me as the CEO of The Other Modeling Agency, putting on huge fashion shows, like Rhi saw Saturday, hehe; and soon to be CEO of L'Autre Academie de Mannequinat. And my latest accomplishment: becoming one of the JCNY Showcase models for June! :D JCNY means a lot to me. So far I know that it is one of the most major names in fashion, period. I know that they create and sell AMAZING jewelry, which I enjoy wearing. Being a JCNY model means that I have been given a huge honor, and it means that my experience and resume in modeling will and has been growing. It means that I have been given a great chance...a chance to become the Top JCNY Showcase Model!

Arion VellaHere I am again and just as thrilled as I was the first time I was chosen. So much has changed for me since I was last on the prestigious JCNY Runway: my modeling career seems to be moving right along. I'm a runway model with Style Enabled Modeling Agency for models of all abilities and disabilities. I've been a store model with House of Beningborough and I'm currently on their runway for the 5th week in a row in the HoB Model of the Month contest and I have a picture in the juried Lionskins' photo contest. But JCNY is where I got my start way back in their first ever contest. It's an honor to represent JCNY Collections here on the stage and at M-17 where my photograph (Photographed by Anarion Nemeth) is featured on the wall. JCNY jewelry is the perfect touch of class and bling that every girl - model or not - and guy (yes, men wear beautiful jewelry and watches, too) wants. And a special thanks to all the people who have encouraged me along my way: Polgara Paine, Chade Villota, Kaelynn Jewell, and most of all - Anarion Nemeth (merci, baby).
Xxx
Augusta Carver Hey :) I cannot begin to say how much this opportunity at JCNY means to me. I am new to the model/fashion scene, but I absolutely love it already. One day I hope to become more involved in it. To me JCNY means excellence. Their jewelry is so detailed and realistic. I can always come here and find something to wear for any kind of occasion. Thanks so much!

GeorgieBoy JuliesseHello everyone! I'm GeorgieBoy Juliesse and this is my first time to be chosen as a JCNY Showcase Model. :) Thank you so much JD Hansen and the JCNY team for giving me this unique opportunity! SL is full of amazingly talented and creative designers and builders, JD Hansen being one of the best. The detail on all of the jewelry pieces is absolutely amazing, they look so real! What some may not realize is that JCNY also has a nice collection of men's jewelry as well. Watches, cufflinks, necklaces, even earrings for men can be found in JCNY all of the highest quality and very reasonable prices. I also want to give a special thanks to Eve Torres of Focus Fashion, the team at SuperElite Lorelei Maggs, Tiara Calvert, Nani Wrigglesworth, Mimmi Boa, and to Synthetyc Summers of Simplicity Designs who gave me my big break into the world of SL modeling. I could not have made it without any of you.
Xxx
Hermione MochaMy first impression of JCNY was like "OMG, I LOVE THIS STORE"! As I walked around the store, i was amazed by the design and detail of all the products. I find myself coming back to JCNY almost everyday (sometimes more then once). JCNY is now my exclusive store for all my jewelry needs and wants. The fashion industry is wonderful! There are styles for everyone and anyone in second life. As for me, i love the fact that i can purchase such beautiful attire, and dress up anytime, for any occasion. To me its not just a game. It's a lifestyle with endless possibilities.
Xxx
Jenie JenningsI am very thrilled to have chosen again for the second time to represent the finest jewelries in SL. For my very first showcase model, I have met kind and incredible people who was chosen with me. And again, I have been meeting yet another fabulous people on the runway and I'm enjoying very much. Thank you so much JD Hansen and staff for giving me this opportunity once again.

Marissa VanviaJCNY means I have finally started taking the steps in becoming the successful model I have strived to be for so long. I have accomplished many things here in sl from owning and co -owning a wedding business as well as a successful club and clan. In the mean time taking various modeling classes trying to get my foot in the fashion industry. I am always striving to become the best. To have such a great opportunity given to me by JCNY I feel truly honored. I hope to be seen by someone as a woman that can be a role model for others as well as an accomplished fashion model.

Clif SharktoothI would like to take this opportunity to thank JCNY for putting on Model Fest and giving everyone the chance to present themselves in a way which will create a much larger and better fashion industry in SL. I am honored to be chosen as a showcase model. This will give each and every showcase model the chance to be put in a spot light otherwise not possible. Thank you so very much.

Melancholia Roux
I came to SL nearly 2 years ago and decided to begin with what I have learned that a lot do in SL when starting out, so I set out to become one of SL's best dancers and for 16 months I did that and strived to be one of the best out there which I feel I accomplished. After that I worked in a spa for about 4 months as their front desk receptionist. We were geared to pamper the SL avatar with our wonderfully trained staff to do massages in our luxury getaways for couples, singles, wedding parties and much more. The past month I have been doing some modeling for a few SL businesses wearing their clothes for the customers to see as they would walk in. I am now trying to break into the more fashion end of what SL has to offer. I have found that JCNY has set out to give us all a chance for that big break and by keeping us posted on many of the fashion ins and outs as well as selling some of the most gorgeous pieces of jewelry I ever seen.

ruby OkellyHello. I am a Japanese model currently registered with AGATA Model Agency in Japan. Thank you for choosing me to be JCNY showcase model again. The jewelry of JCNY does a very beautiful forming. Additionally, it is high performance jewelry that can adjust the color and the material in detail. The jewelry of JCNY improves the styling quality of our model. With the jewelry of wonderful JCNY, I want to do high quality styling further. I wish to express my gratitude to The JCNY contest, JD Hansen, and judges who gave a chance.

Alicia AshbourneI am honoured to have been selected as a JCNY showcase model for June. This will be my 3rd time gracing the runway and I have already had some great experiences representing JCNY. I intend to make the most of my time on the runway and can't wait to meet all of the other models and learn from them in order to evolve as a model and to further my career. JCNY is always my first point of call for jewelry. The thought and imagination that goes into each and every piece is stunning and the detail never fails to capture my attention. The designs can enhance and transform any outfit I choose to wear. They set off a couture gown perfectly or work beautifully with a plain dress to ensure they are shown off to their full potential. I would like to wish all the girls good luck and hope that they fulfill all their modeling dreams.

Delilah ZimerI am honored to be selected to participate in the prestigious JCNY Model ‘Fest once again!! Being on the JCNY runway last month was a great learning experience and I made some amazing friends. I have worked harder on my look and I am ready for another great week on the JCNY runway. JCNY is perfection. Its exquisitely beautiful creations are for every person that appreciates top quality in jewelry and accessories. In SL, I enjoy shopping, modeling, photography and styling different looks for myself and my friends. I am always focused and working hard on achieving the goals I set for myself but I am also a cheerful, fun loving person who chooses to be happy every day, no matter what. I like meeting new people, talking and sharing laughter, I am looking forward to meeting more great people and having fun during the Model ‘Fest. I believe JCNY Model ‘Fest offers every model, experienced as well as new a fair chance to make their dreams come true. Thank you JD Hansen and all the judges involved, for giving me this beautiful opportunity.

Emma PortiloGreetings from Emma! I am honored to have been chosen as a JCNY Showcase Model and am full of anticipation as I look forward to an exciting week on the runway. I'm new to both the modeling world and Second Life, but look forward to this opportunity to meet new people and to learn more about the fashion industry. I love shopping in Second Life and am passionate about discovering designers and their creations. JCNY's impressive and quality line of jewelry helps me to complete my fashion look with gorgeous and stunning pieces. They have an extremely high level of quality and variety. Their commitment to their products and the fashion industry is reflected in both the quality of their items as well as their customer service. Thank you for this opportunity, JCNY!

Ien RouxMy impression of JCNY is that it is the most upscale jewelry provider in all of SL. The jewelry itself is exquisite and very realistic. The brand JCNY is in my opinion, is part of the Who's Who of the SL jewelry industry. Fashion in SL is a thriving industry and has become its own "ecosystem". There are designers, modeling agencies, models, jewelry and accessory stores that all work together to produce top notch fashion ensembles.

Laya FelisimoBeing chosen as a JCNY Showcase model, for me, is a huge accomplishment and honour. With JCNY playing a huge part in the SL modeling world, being a Showcase Model is giving me a great opportunity to 'get my face and name out there' and to meet new people, make new friends. Very importantly though, it is a real honour to be able to stand on the JCNY runway and represent JCNY as a Showcase model. No matter whether i progress or win, being able to achieve the aforementioned, is a major Prize for me anyway and i feel like I’ve already won and that makes me a winner already :o)

Madison BakerThank you so much for this wonderful opportunity! I am very honored to be a part of JCNY's Model Fest. I have been a member of SL since 2005 and have always had the desire to be in the model industry. I am very proud of my SL accomplishments. Currently I assist in maintaining JAZ Bikes which keeps me pretty busy. Now that I have more 'me' time, I decided to finally explore the fashion industry world. I currently work with JCS and Twilight Designs. I have had the wonderful opportunity to be featured in JCS' Magazine as well as working with Morea Decosta's designs. I also want to say a BIG thank you to all of the photographers that have helped me along the way. I feel that JCNY contributes fabulous jewelry to the SL fashion scene. Their jewelry is wonderfully detailed and bright! It brings that solid 'edge' to any outfit. What more could you ask for?!

Scarlet HalcaliI am so excited to be picked again as a JCNY Showcase Model! I greatly enjoy meeting the other models and JCNY clients. JCNY is my virtual Tiffany's. I come here to look, to buy, to stroll, and just to get that happy feeling a girl gets when gifting herself with diamonds. When walking down the runway, I always wear a little something of JCNY, something that reflects the light of my personality. Being able to represent JCNY as a showcase model brings an extra smile to my day.

SterlingZen HarbourI love joining the ladies on the runway each time I am selected. I seem to learn something new each time. JD has been a leader in sl helping new faces achieve their dreams as a model. I really appreciate everything she has done. I also love the jewelry she designs and the innovations such as the virtual phone. I have enjoyed every piece of jewelry I have gotten from the store and I am always excited about the next releases.

Once again I have been selected as a Wild Card model for Model Fest. This is a great honor and I wish to thank JD Hansen and the other judges. I have done a few things since the last time I was here on the stage. I did some ad work for Katlaya Greggan and at the present time I am working on a Show for Fashion-In-Look who have put me on their roster of models. It is nice to associate myself with these ladies and gentlemen that walk the stages. Entered some contests like all of the gals and guys out there and I keep trying everyday for more work. My time at Classic w/Style helped me very much. It is hard , but pleasing work, and there are a lot of us out there. Thanks again to JD Hansen and her Model Fest for giving me a chance once again to be seen and show off her beautiful creations.

Pyper DollingerI would like to thank JD Hansen and all of the amazing staff that make the Model'fest what it is. This my second time having the opportunity to be here on the runway and I am having an amazing time. Sharing the runway with each and everyone of these amazing and beautiful people is what we as models work for. As you ask what JCNY means to me I can tell you style, sophistication, beauty and versatility. The opportunities that are given to the most beautiful and fashionable people in SL is one that is to be found nowhere else. The hard work that each and every one of them put into the hottest fashions and grace are displayed right on the Showcase Runway. I am a Director of the SPIRIT Dazzlers Cheer/Dance Team and a Runway and print model and I just want to say thank you so much to everyone that has ever given me tips, criticism and hope to be the best I can. This is so worth all the work!

I’m Taya Renfold, an easy going, down to earth, aspiring model who is surprised and humbled at the same time, to have been chosen as a JCNY Showcase Model. This is actually one of two big breaks for me this week in a long journey to becoming a successful model.... talk about being motivated but yet humbled at the same time. When I do take time out for things other than fashion, I enjoy exploring various sims, taking photographs and meeting people from all walks of life. My impressions of JCNY are simple, it is a great place for anyone whose looking for classy, well designed jewelry, accessories and clothing. Thank you so much JD for giving me the opportunity.

Rouge Anthony
Wow, I think I'm more stunned this week than I was the first week I was chosen to be in the MODEL'FEST. Being around such talented and hardworking women has given me a new level of confidence in my abilities and allowed me to make some great new friends each week. JCNY is like my family now, always apart of what I do in SL and makes me look fabulous while I'm doing it. Thanks to JD, Rhi, Sparkie and everyone who finds me an interesting choice each week. It's an amazing thing to experience.

Kiki DevinI'd have to say that I'm a easy person to get along with, I love to help others. I love a challenge and trying new things. I love hard and play hard. my family means the world to me, JCNY was the very first shop I went to buy jewelry when I came to SL and have been back often, I even bought my necklace and earrings set for my wedding. I am always amazed at what they come up with.
