A beautiful 17 year old walked into our Sense Clothing showroom in 2006 for a fitting. Her name was Zoe, but today everyone now knows her as Arizona Muse. What first struck me was her maturity and striking beauty. But how will she photograph? We had a photo shoot scheduled with Peter Ogilvie in Oct and Zoe was one of our models. I have to say Santa Fe doesn’t have a huge pool of models to call on, but we have been so lucky to come across some of the most beautiful and interesting women to model our clothing. Zoe is no exception. The very first shot on that day would be a photo that we still continue to use today. Arizona quickly became the face of Sense even before signing with Next. With each season to the next she started to show her comfort with being in front of the lens. It’s great to see someone grow and become successful so quickly. You can imagine how excited we were for her when we heard she had wrapped up a BEBE campaign. That same year she became pregnant and left New York and moved to Tucson AZ. Fast forward a quick year later and we would be working together again launching our Spring/Summer 2010 collection. We also got to meet the new man in her life (her son) Nikko, who by the way, was a perfect gentlemen at the photo shoot. Zoe had changed. Her long blonde hair was gone and was a more natural darker shade. More than anything I noticed how much more relaxed she seemed especially when Nikko was near. Within the year she was walking all the major runways.
I speak for all of us here at Sense that we are beyond blown away by how far she’s come and certainly how hard she’s worked. It’s no small task to be a mother, fashion icon and the most talked about model of the year.
ps. Zoe – We’re still counting on that Sense tattoo
