Sophie Skloss on the Cover of Red Thread Magazine

We have a feeling that being on the cover of the inaugural issue of Red Thread Journal is going to be one the highlights of Sophia Skloss' holiday season! Red Thread Journal is a bi-annual British fashion magazine, so it is definitely notable that out of their two covers they will have in a year they selected Sophia to be on the cover of one. 

Sophia's birthday was on Sunday, and we are always impressed by her maturity and composure that is well-beyond her years. In the past year she worked with designers and labels like Burberry, Delpozo, Phillip Lim, Zac Posen, Rodarte, and the list goes on and on! We are looking forward to seeing what the new year brings for this beauty.

Polaroid Round Up

Olivia Hamilton

A model's polaroids are every bit as important as her book. The book shows potential clients what you can look like (with wardrobe/hair/makeup) but the polaroids show what you actually do look like. With digital polaroids a model wears minimal makeup, hair is simple, and the wardrobe is basic. We ask models for polaroids for pictures all the time, so we thought it would be helpful to see some of our models' more recent polaroids. Also, looking through these pictures we are in awe of how stunning our models are. We really do have some of the best models in the industry in our Pulse family, and we are so proud!

Sophia Skloss for Marie Claire Italia

In our opinion a good model doesn't need a lot of hair/makeup tricks to look amazing. Case in point is our model, Sophia Skloss, in this photo from the December 2015 Marie Claire Italia. She looks fresh faced and beautiful. Max Cardelli photographed the editorial and it was styled by Laura Segaunti. The combination of the subtle hair and makeup, along with the beautiful Cèline frock, makes for a stunning photo of Sophia. Not to mention the fact that it is running in one of the most recognized names in the fashion magazine arena, Marie Claire. Keep up the good work Sophia, we are so proud of you!

Major Moment Monday: Sophie Skloss for Burberry

The other day I was doing a little online browsing and who did I see on the front of the Women's clothing section of the Burberry website? Our very own Sophia Skloss!  You may remember when Sophia walked in Burberry's runway show, we posted about it here. I'm not surprised that Sophia's photo is up so prominently on their site, look at how beautiful she looks draped in that poncho (which by the way is to die for!).  This may be old news to Sophia, but we think when you are on the website of a designer as iconic as Burberry, it is pretty MAJOR!

Recap of Sophia Skloss in the European Shows

Fresh off of a whirlwind New York Fashion Week (that we posted about here), our model Sophia Skloss hopped on a plane to Europe to be in the shows there too.  Here is a recap of the shows that Sophia walked in while she was in Europe.  Also, please keep in mind that these fashion shows are the top designers in Europe, and there are no bigger runway shows than those during the show season in New York, London, Milan, and Paris.  So each picture and show listed here is a major accomplishment for any model, let alone one model!

Teen Vogue #modelmonday featuring Sophia Skloss

Pulse Management model, Sophia Skloss was recently featured in Teen Vogue's #modelmonday compilation.  #modelmonday is a recurring feature on Teen Vogue's instagram, where they show some new faces in the modeling industry that they have requested to see and deem noteworthy.  Seeing our model Sophia Skloss pop up in the slideshow recently was exciting to say the least!

Sophia just wrapped up Milan Fashion Week, and we are looking forward to seeing what she does next.  This girl is on a hot streak right now, and we don't see any signs of it (or her) slowing down!

Side note: You may remember that two of our other models (Georgia Weeks and Hazel Eakman) were featured in #modelmonday as we posted about here.  So clearly, we are huge fans of #modelmonday.

NYFW: Sophia Skloss' Whirlwind Week

3.1 Phillip Lim

Our model Sophia Skloss is currently in Milan walking the runways for Milan Fashion Week, but we have to catch you all up on the rest of the shows she walked in for NYFW.  When we met up with Sophia and her mom, she was telling us about finishing one show, and the running through the city to make it on time to the next show, and as you scan through these pictures you can see why she had such a crazy pace.  Sophia was not only walking in a lot of fashion shows, she was walking in some of the biggest shows of the entire season!  Sophia, we can barely keep up with just writing about you, and that makes us so proud!  Keep up the good work in Europe, we will be posting about all of your London shows next week, followed by your bookings in Milan. (Each link with the designers' names will take you to the Vogue review of the show)

MAJOR MOMENT MONDAY: Sophia Skloss for Delpozo

Sophia's first look in the show

Last week while some of the Pulse Management crew was in New York City for Fashion Week, we  had the pleasure to watch our model Sophia Skloss in the Delpozo Spring 2016 Ready-to-wear show. We went to dinner with Sophia and her mom Karin, the night before the show and she was telling us all about how chaotic fashion week had been, but also about how much she was loving it.

It was such a treat getting to watch Sophia walk the runway, especially at a show as beautiful as this one.  One of the things I loved the most about watching this particular show, is that the hair and makeup wasn't over the top, it just allowed the models to look like themselves.  (My front row seat (!!!) also helped me see all of the details of the clothing, bags, and shoes that may have been harder to catch by viewing the pictures online later)

While we were waiting for the show to start we had the opportunity to chat with Sophia's mom, and I have to say how impressed I was with both her and Sophia.  She mentioned that as parents, she and Sophia's dad prioritize Sophia's education and her grades.  When she wanted to go to this NYFW, her dad said she would only be able to go if her grades were at a certain level. So Sophia worked hard and got her grades where they needed to be so she would be able to walk in the shows.  Sometimes being a model looks glamorous (which it can be), but there is also a lot of work that goes into it, including keeping up with your school work, and it shows a lot about Sophia that she is willing to put in the work so she can continue with her career.

Sophia is currently in London walking the runways for London Fashion week, and we will keep you updated on all of her exciting bookings there. In the meantime enjoy these photos and videos that will give you a behind the scenes and up close look at this amazingly beautiful fashion show.

NYFW: Sophia Skloss for Rodarte

Our model Sophia Skloss is having an incredible week.  Yesterday she walked the runway at the Rodarte Spring 2016 show, which over the past decade has turned into one of the most anticipated runways of the season.  We had the pleasure of having dinner with Sophia and her mom Karin tonight, and hearing her tell all of us about her castings, and racing from one runway to the next.  She mentioned that at this show Anna Wintour came up to her to inspect her Rodarte ensemble.  We couldn't get over the fact that this High School student that we discovered in Oregon, was sitting across from us telling us about walking the runways and being inspected by Anna Wintour herself!  Sophia is really coming into her own as a model and a young adult, and we are so proud of her. 

We have a lot more to update you about NYFW, but we will have to save that for another day because we have to go try to catch Sophia's next show!

Major Moment Monday: Sophia Skloss for Yigal Azrouel

Happy Monday everyone!  Fresh of off the NYFW catwalk is a pic of our model Sophia Skloss, stomping for the Yigal Azrouel Spring 2016 RTW show.  Sophia looks fresh-faced in the best way, and we love the look of that dress with her willowy frame. Pulse Management models are no stranger to the Yigal Azrouel, last February our model Liz Kennedy walked in their show.  We posted about it here, just in case you missed it.

Congrats on another great show Sophia, we can't wait to see what else Fashion Week has in store for you!

NYFW: Sophia Skloss for Zac by Zac Posen

Zac Posen's diffusion line Zac by Zac Posen kicked off fashion week today, being touted as the first major designer's show of fashion week.  Our model Sophia Skloss walked down the runway with models like Coco Rocha, and we are so pleased!  Sophia got a taste of fashion week in February when she walked the Burberry runway in London, and now she's set to take the city of New York by storm.  We can't wait to bring you a lot more updates as Fashion Week kicks into high gear.  We have a couple of exciting announcements for you all, but we'll save that for another day. Today we're all about celebrating our girl Sophia's walk down the runway!

London Ladies

City of London consider yourself warned, our Pulse Girls are in full effect and ready to take on the fashion world!  Olivia Hamilton, Sophia Skloss, and Liz Kennedy are all in London right now, and we are loving seeing pics of our girls (from three different states) hanging out together halfway around the world.  These three are some of the most promising models we have ever represented and we are excited to see what comes from this trip for each of them.  As always we will keep you updated, so keep checking back!

Sophia Skloss on Models.com!

It's a big accomplishment for any model, and we are so proud of Sophia Skloss for now having her own profile on Models.com.  We have written about it before, but basically models.com is the go to site for modeling industry news.  You can't create your own profile on the site, they will create one for you when they think you have distinguished yourself amongst the many models trying to make it in the industry.  From now on, all of Sophia's jobs will be chronicled on her models.com profile, and she is recognized with the top models in the industry.  Huge congrats Sophia, now lets fill that profile with some jobs!

TBT: Polaroids of Sophia Skloss

It has been a while since we posted our last Throwback Thursday, and we think the time has come for a new one.  These are our model Sophia Skloss' polaroids from right around when we scouted her. If you have been reading our blog for awhile you know how important polaroids are, but if you haven't please click here.  These polaroids of Sophia are perfect, they showcase her, not her wardrobe and hair and makeup.  These combined with a killer book are what helped us land Sophia her exclusive booking with Burberry.  To see what else Sophia has been up to since taking these polaroids, check out this link.
