Stacey McKenzie & J SHOES style SORRENTO

How stunning is Stacey McKenzie?

She is extra-ordinary! An internationally recognized fashion model she is the epitome of fashion: "making this world a more beautiful place!" When Stacey's publicists, Annette (an old friend) phoned in a request for Stacey we were thrilled. Stacey found J SHOES! She loves the brand, the product and this style. Despite all the solicitations she received to ask for a product is a supreme compliment. Naturally, we have been thrilled and look forward to working with her more closely. {Stacey is photographed in Barbados in her J SHOES _style SORRENTO. This is the same design the editors of NYLON Magazine highlighted last week.}

Not familiar with Stacey? Welcome then…..after being told, early in her career, that she was too distinctive for the Canadian market, she moved to New York. She was immediately picked up by Elite Model Management.

Unprepared for the challenges of a modeling career, McKenzie returned to Canada and finished high school. In 1995, she moved to Paris, France to pursue modeling further. During her first season, she modeled for top designers including Jean Paul Gaultier, Thierry Mugler and Christian Lacroix. She also landed her first campaign with photographer Oliviero Toscani for Benetton

In the wake of her initial success in Paris, McKenzie was commissioned to work in markets around the globe including Paris, London, Italy, Austria, US and Japan. She worked for Alexander McQueen, Betsey Johnson, Tommy Hilfiger, Todd Oldham, Michiko Koshino and Jean Paul Gaultier. Her magazine covers include Essence, Le Monde and Panache, as well as editorials in Vogue (US, Japan, Korean, British, Spanish), Harper’s Bazaar, Interview, Flare, Fashion, and Vibe Magazine. She has appeared in a number major campaigns including Calvin Klein CK, Jean Paul Gaultier, MAC, Mexx, Reebok, Todd Oldham Jeans, Nordstrom, Barneys, and Banana Republic. In February 2008, McKenzie modeled at Toronto Fashion Week. In 2009, McKenzie returned to Toronto Fashion Week where she walked the runway exclusively for Xuly Bet in the Arise African Collective fashion show.

Ms. McKenzie has also established a company called Walk This Way Workshops. Originally catering to aspiring and established models and all aspects of the modeling industry, McKenzie decided to build Walk This Way Workshops as a self-esteem company geared to all different types of people. She is the epitome of beauty and a reason J SHOES finds her so attractive!
In May 2007, McKenzie added professional speaking to her offering and was a special speaker for a brunch benefit held by the Canadian Mental Health Association. In her speaking engagements, she discusses the challenges of self-esteem in young adults and how to gain confidence through self-acceptance. Ms. McKenzie continues to do motivational speaking engagements with inner city kids and schools.
