UR SuperModels Thanked by Editor of CHICAGO BRIDE MAGAZINE

December 2010- Look what we found! A lovely editor's note, by Cathy Demetropoulos of Chicago Bride Magazine. She thanks UR SuperModels (see bottom with image c/o ABC NEWS) for providing lovely models for the well respected brand. A timeless classic to blushing brides, Chicago Bride Magazine & David's Bridal easily roll off the tongue when you think of resource guide and bridal dress options. We really appreciated the opportunity! We used mostly new faces plus Jessica Meyer (mostly print division, 2nd model from left) who walked in Dubai Fashion Fiesta 2009 as the first American model for the segment. The article dives into their annual Navy Pier event at the beautiful Crystal Gardens.

Cathy also notes (which we didn't know) how they love to hear from their readers and encourage couples to submit to have their wedding featured in the magazine- what an opportunity! You can email editor Demetropoulos at: editorial@ChicagoBrideMagazine.com.

UR Artists Land NEW AD for Fabbri Furs- Where? TCW Magazine

December 2010- UR Artists Artistic Director & Ceo/Founder of UR SuperModels, Asha Spacek, works closely with our artists in developing their skills, as well as using the proper budding vs established artists for precise client needs.

UR Artists (Asha as AD Creative Director/Stylist, others listed on image), were hired to create a full page ad for Fabbri Furs, a custom design furrier, located at 50 East Oak Street in Chicago. Adorning stores like Harry Winston, Prada, Hermes, Kate Spade, and others, it's one of Chicago's most prestigious shopping blocks. The current ad can be seen in the December issue of Today's Chicago Woman on page 13. TCW is an affluent local magazine that reaches a generous span of professional women, socialites, media, and businesses throughout the Chicagoland area in print and online. The magazine's premiere fashion photographer is the infamous, Victor Skrebneski. UR SuperModels was quite thrilled and honored to see the full pager neighboring the mag's list of bloggers and bios page. What great placement! Fantastic job & huge thanks to our freelance and UR Artists, plus local retailers/designers that helped pull it together!!!

Our clients noted, "Asha and her team exceeded our expectations, and delivered the type of ad we've always wanted for our store's brand image!"

Amazing job to UR Fashion Division model, Yelena Fedorchenko (bottom left), New Face Rachel Valentina (bottom right), Lifestyle Division (pending) Ana Devine (upper left), and client guest model Karin Sosnoff (upper right).

Check out the Red Carpet Page tomorrow, after my morning interview with local Celebrity Olympians Melissa Gregory and husband/partner Denis Petukhov after Denis' PREMIERE TONIGHT on "Skating With the Stars" scheduled at 9/8pm central on ABC. The show takes over our tubes and laptops as the same producers of DWTS showcase celebrity favorites paired with pro skaters. Sean Young, seen in the movie, "Blade Runner," and trained dancer at the school of American Ballet in New York will partner with Petukhov, while Melissa will give behind the scenes (in LA) from an Olympians point of view via her utube channel, click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiS2vCezU-M

Melissa (raised in Northfield, IL), and Denis (originally from Russia), placed 2nd during the State Farm US Figure Skating Championships January 26, 2007 at Spokane Arena in Spokane, Washington.

"Their artistic flare is an understatement! I was honored to not only receive information about the power couple, but then offered the opportunity to interview Melissa tonight, or the two tomorrow, I can hardly wait to report after watching online at http://abc.go.com/shows/skating-with-the-stars!"

about the designers:

Umar Sayeed
A name synonymous with ultra-chic and understated glamor, hence he is one of the biggest fashion designers in Pakistan.

Umar Sayeed has been on the Pakistan fashion radar for the last 17 years and has managed to enrich the fashion scene through years of extraordinary passion for style. Umar Sayeed is a name with nationwide recognition. Has shown in NY, Dubai, Asian market, & beyond...

Shameel
Starting with a bang her debut held at Cafe Royale in London for an Imran Khan Benefit evening in August 1987. And there was no looking back. Shamaeel has to her credit some of the most exotic solo shows held to date in Pakistan. Packaged complete with ensembles, sound and light effects and staged at historical venues such as the Hindu Gymkhana, Ismaili Gymkhana in Karachi and the un-paralleled Orient Express held at the Karachi city station. Her international showings include solo shows in New York, Washington D.C., London, Dubai, Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bahrain, Rome and Delhi. Shamaeel took a bow out of the fashion industry to work in fashion capital of the Americas, New York. This time working as buyer for US based customers, such as Donna Karen Home, Club Monaco, Eddie Bauer, Vonducth Akademiks, procuring textiles from Pakistan and India. Apart from this she has regularly supplied bed linen companies such as Bed Bath and Beyond, Target Stores USA, Wal-Mart and Disney licensee’s. In 2007 Shamaeel returned to her first love - fashion designing. Geared with international experience of a trained buyer’s eye, she takes centre stage. Today she is supplying couture and prêt lines to the UAE, UK, USA, India and Pakistan. Shamaeel will also re-open her “Shamaeel Fabric” nationwide for mass apparel in 2010.
