IMARI WASHINGTON
Emerging Fashion Model When did you first get into modeling? I first got into modeling when I was 19 years old. I was selected out of a few to model for lexdothis website.
What do you think makes you stand out in an industry overflowing with new faces? Since I have been modeling I’ve noticed my smile and my happiness with the camera makes me stand
Who or What inspired you to be a model? At first I didn’t think I could become a model with my main goal to go to college. What inspired me to have the confidence to want to become a model is a lot of people would tell me they loved my smile and how I was beautiful to be a model. Growing up I had very low self esteem so hearing that boosted me even more and I started investing in myself. What style of model do you consider your work to be? The style of model I consider my work to be is a runway model and a print model. If you were forced to choose only one, which emotion, more than any other drives you to stay in this tough business? Is it joy, anger, desire, passion or pride and why? If I was forced to choose only one emotion that drives me more than anything to stay in this tough business? It would be passion. I’m very passionate when it comes to something I want to do and it drives me more and more no matter what!
