FATIMA SIAD

FATIMA FOR HERVE LEGER 2012 CAMPAIGN

All hail Africa! The motherland. Another of our all natural beauty has been duly recognized by the hierarchy of the fashion world. Somali/Ethiopian Fatima Siad, who before now was best known for being one of the contestants at the Cycle 10 of Tyra Banks- America's Next Top Model- where she placed 3rd. Mom is Somali & dad is Ethiopian, a fantastic combination don't you all think? Her parents divorced while she and her 2 sisters were still young.

She underwent Female Genital Cutting at the age of 7 years old, a very traumatic experience for a woman to undergo; she lost her 2 sisters during the civil war, as they were killed by the Somali Army. She and her mom later fled Somalia to the United States when she was 13.

She is now 25 years old, a graduate and an internationally recognized model. The 5 ft 9.5 Inches model is signed on to New York Model Management, LA Model Management, Ace Model (Athens), ICE Models (Milan), Munich Models, Oui Model Management, Paris & Modelink Model Management.

She was recently chosen as the FACE OF THE HERVE LEGER'S 2012 campaign by Max Azria.



Herve Leger is the world famous fashion brand known for pioneering the equally famous Bandage (Body-conscious) dress. The bandage dress follows and drapes around the mold of the wearer to perfection. And every top fashionista or stylish lady has one or 2 in their wardrobes.
