Everything about modeling thrills me, so much, I barely think of recognition with any of my projects. So I find myself bringing out the unique “Fairre” swag every time.

  • What are your greatest moment and your most embarrassing moment?

I see every next project to be the greatest moment to experience so I go hard every time.  Embarrassing moments? I like to see the good in every situation so what people might say are embarrassments; to me they’re only moments of lessons and learning.

  • What do you aspire to have or achieve in 5 years?

I have come to realize things usually don’t go as planned, I’d planned for some years trying to achieve but it wasn’t as expected so I only work with the flow and make the best of every opportunity. Hence I inspire to be the best EDEM FAIRRE BRAND THAT I CAN be in the next five years, with no regrets but do and be the best as a selective participant.

 

  • Who is your favourite designer to model runway for?

I am not the typical Catwalk Model, I am more of a Commercial/Editorial Model but if I should be on a runway today I believe every designer have their unique signature, I don’t really have a favorite.

  • What beauty tips do you swear by?

Less cosmetic products and more exercise.

  • Would you go nude for a million dollar contract?

Hahahaha, that sounds tempting but I haven’t come across a million dollar contract to go nude, just in case I do, my team and I will weigh the options, if it’s worth it, we will decide.

 

  • How do you feel about the controversy of the size 0 debate in the industry?

You see mostly the definition for Models as in catwalk Models usually have been centered on being a “size zero”,  realistically the consumers are mostly not that size, if  designers and industry players understood what models go through not just psychologically but also physically to achieve that size, they would be paying their models much better. BUT A SIZE ZERO? with the required height DIFFERENT YOU AS A CATWALK MODEL FROM THE MANY, it’s quite a delicate issue.

This is why I would rather be a Model that fits a brand which will need my services than be a typical Catwalk Model especially in Africa, the health risks are higher than the benefits, I feel the abuse is inhuman that so long as you wish to be a catwalk model you are conditioned to be a size 0, recent news seems to be in favor of the Models

And also not forgetting the power of Social media rulers with more followers, likes, comments and shares who are voicing out against it and showing u can be a size 0 and sell And be a size 12 and still sell same products. As I stated above it’s a delicate issue, Which needs to be revised. That’s the little knowledge I can offer.

  • Your face is your commodity. What’s your industry-insider to grooming perfection?

Exercise and Bath every minute you get the chance to.

  • Any regrets about modeling?

Lol, I don’t have any regrets, after getting the understanding of the show business, I realized all I had to do was groom myself up for future experiences based on my past experiences.

  • What are the five fashion items you can’t do without? How would you describe your personal style?

My fashion style has no limitations it’s adaptable, I use less makeup, I use more fabric only when needed,  I am not clingy to products except water, lol

 

  • What do you think about the African modeling industry?

I can’t really talk about the African modeling industry as a whole but with my experience in Ghana, it’s still evolving. The MODUGA management as a team so far is trying all its best in its power to balance and create a unified voice that can penetrate all angle in the industry, so I reserve my comments for now.

  • What do you want to be remembered for?

I want to be remembered as an icon of hope and faith. Looking back on how far I’ve come from nothing. I want to be remembered as the model that fought through the “no’s” till I achieved all that I wanted by believing in God

 

  • If a young girl/boy wanted to be a model what would your advice for them be?

It’s not easy if you don’t meet the right people, it’s not an easy road even if you are fit for all categories you will meet the good, the bad and the ugly but with God, perseverance, discipline and staying true to yourself, you can make it.

  • Any last words to your admirers or shout outs to anyone?

I love you all for being both critics and encouragers, you help me get to where I am aiming at and that I will always cherish, you should never stop, I will never stop. Higher we will rise up, thousand times. I might not say this often but I need you all and I love you all.
