UNouri waqala wagqiba kwelokuba alandele imodeli emva kokukhuthazwa yintsapho yakhe. Baza kuthetha ngokuqhula ngathi, 'ude kakhulu kwaye ubhityile kwaye umhle, ngathi, kufuneka umode,' uNouri uxelela kuLwazi. Ndithathe amagqabantshintshi osapho lwam malunga nokuba ndiyimodeli ngokwenyani.
Ukudubula kokuqala kukaNouri kwakukunye Umtsalane , xa wayeneminyaka eli-18 ubudala. Sasisenza ibali kwi-stretch marks, kwaye nje Ukuphila kakuhle komzimba nje. Yayilixesha lokuqala ndisetiwe ngeemodeli ezigobileyo, utshilo uNouri kuLwazi. Just being there, ndijikelwe ziimodeli ezigobileyo, ndaqonda ukuba mandizingca ngalomzimba ndikuwo. I should not body shame myself.
Ukungqongwa ngabafazi abazithembileyo nabanoburhalarhume kwaba nefuthe elikhulu kuNouri. Indithathe kude kakhulu kwindawo yam yokuthuthuzela kangangokuba bendinje, linda, ndifuna ukuqhubeka ndiyenza le nto, utshilo.
Njengoko uNouri ukwenza imodeli Ukuqhubela phambili komsebenzi wakhe, waqaphela ukuba ngelixa uninzi lwemifanekiso awayekuyo ibonakala yahlukile, akazange azive ngathi iyantlukwano iyinyani.
Ngokuqhelekileyo ukuphosa kwiiseti endikuzo kwahluke kakhulu. Kodwa ngenxa yesizathu esithile, ayivakali iyinyani njengoko kufanelekile, uNouri uxelela kuLwazi. Kuvakala ngathi uninzi lwabalawuli abaphosayo kunye neebrendi ziphawula nje iibhokisi ukuze zibonakale zibandakanya kwaye ziyinyani. Kodwa, ekupheleni kosuku, iyasebenza kakhulu.
Ke uNouri wagqiba kwelokuba athathele ezandleni zakhe izinto ngokuqala iXYNE AGENCY, egxile ekumeleni iitalente ezahlukeneyo kunye nokudala iindawo ezibandakanyayo kwihlabathi lefashoni.
Ndaqala i-XYNE malunga neminyaka emibini edlulileyo. I-XYNE yi-arhente yokuphosa kunye nomama. Sikholelwa kubandakanyo oluyinyani, iyantlukwano , kunye nokumelwa kwazo zonke iintlobo zabantu, uyacacisa uNouri.
Enye yeenjongo ze-XYNE kukuqinisekisa ukuba iimodeli zabo zifumana amazinga achanekileyo, ukusetyenziswa okuchanekileyo, kunye nokuphepha ukuxhaphaza. Bendifuna ukungenelela ndincede abahlobo kunye naba bantu bamelwe kancinci ukuba bathi nje 'kufuneka udlule kwiarhente,' kwaye 'kufuneka usebenze ngam,' kwaye ngathi, 'Ndiza kukunika ireyithi yabo efanelekileyo, imiqathango efanelekileyo,' utsho uNouri.
Ngelixa ukuba neentlobo ezahlukeneyo zeemodeli ilinyathelo eliya kwicala elifanelekileyo, uNouri uvakalelwa kukuba ubandakanyo lokwenyani lwenzeka emva komboniso.
Ndiyakholelwa ukuba ukuba ufuna ukubandakanya ngokwenyani, kuya kufuneka ube ne-POC phambi kwekhamera nangasemva, uNouri uxelela kuLwazi. Waqala ke uNouri Uthungelwano lweBipoc , uvimba weefayili apho iibhrendi zinokukhupha iitalente ezahlukeneyo kwiindima ezinje ngezimbo, abaculi be-makeup , abalungisi beenwele kunye nabafoti.
Yaqala njenge-spreadsheet kwaye yakhula yaba njengabafoti abangaphezu kwe-100, ngaphezulu kwe-stylists ezingama-60, [zonke] zivela kuyo yonke indawo, utsho uNouri. Kwaye kunye nabadali endisebenza nabo kwiseti, ndiye ndaqonda ukuba baqeshwe kwi-BIPOC Network ukuba babe kunye nam ngaloo mini.
Ukujonga phambili, uNouri unethemba lokukwazi kwe-XYNE AGENCY ukuqhubeka nokukhulisa iitalente zabo ezahlukeneyo.
Bekumnandi kakhulu ukubona i-arhente ikhula kule minyaka mibini idlulileyo, uNouri uxelele Ukwazi. Amajelo eendaba ezentlalo avumele ukwahlukahlukana kolu shishino kuba uyakwazi ukufumana italente entsha nangaliphi na ixesha.
Iinzame zokwahluka kukaNouri zikhanyisa ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo kwikamva leshishini lefashoni, kwaye unethemba lokuba yena kunye nophawu lwakhe banokukhuthaza abantu abaninzi ukuba bathathe inxaxheba kutshintsho lwembonakalo yefashoni.
Ndiyathemba ukuba abantu bayawubona umsebenzi endiwenzayo, njengemodeli, njengomlawuli obalaseleyo, kwaye baqonde ukuba nabo banokubandakanyeka, utshilo uNouri. I ifashoni ishishini akufuneki libe kwinqanaba elithile elingafikelelekiyo. Ifanele ingeneke yaye ibe sengqiqweni.
