My Woman of the Week " LUDIE SENATUS "


Ok so people been asking about the new WOTW!! Well here she is Ludie Senatus is a model, business woman, and a very good friend of Jwork Limited!!! She is a triple threat and here is what she had to say as the "WOTW" leave comments No hate mail!!!!

1. Where are you from? What is your nationality?
I like to say that I am from many places. I am Haitian-American. I was born in Miami, FL. I was partially raised in Haiti. I lived there for about 10 years, spending all of my adolescent life there.

2. How long have been modeling? And where do see yourself going in this model industry within the next year or two?
I have been modeling on and off for about 8 years. The sky is the limit. I see myself doing more fashion editorial and high fashion runway work in the west coast, mid-west, south and international market. I am actively seeking to work for a fashion house. Look for me!

3. Ludie your a real business woman!! Is it hard being a business woman in Columbus, Ohio? And why?
Thank you! It is not easy to be in business anywhere. Columbus,OH is considered to be one of the best places to be an entrepreneur. This city is very resourceful. I seek out and take advantage of some of the business resources that are offered. NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK!!! I believe in networking. 
The key is to stay relevant, take advantage of resources and continuously preparing for your next big opportunity. 

4. You have been to Paris? Tell me about that? And where are you going next?
Yes, I went to Paris for a fashion show January of this year. It was a fantastic way to start my year. It really inspired me. It is so beautiful there. Thousands of years of history and art make for fabulous people...lol. The people there are all fashion forward. I have to say this...I saw NO overweight people in Paris. Everyone (including the kids) dressed like grown ups, chique from the time they woke up, until the time they went to sleep. Akira Takashi was in the group that I went with. We had a blast. Speaking french really helped. Everyone should go at some point. I plan to go back to Europe spring of next year, maybe sooner. I'll be in the islands this fall. 

5. Give our readers 3 words that describe you best as a person and a business woman? Total of 6!!!!!
Confident, Determined, Resilient, Persistent, Action-oriented, Integrity 

6. How tall are you really Ludie w/o heels? 
I stand 5'11" without heels. (6'2 in heels...lol). I'm usually the tallest woman in the room. And yes, I stay in heels.

7. If you could change one thing about fashion what would it be and why?
Fashion, by definition is what ever style the majority is wearing at a particular time. I'm an individual and I'm not very "trendy." I wear what I want, when I want. I like to mix it up...custom, retro, urban, high fashion, textures, etc. I'd like to see more individuality in the way that clothes are worn. Get out of the box, folks.

8. The pictures from your last shoot (unless you had another one Damn slow down lol) you rocking the JWORK LIMITED.....Money,Cash, Clothes shirt in a very powerful picture!!!! How do you feel about JWORK and the Movement?
lol...You know I gotta stay busy. I told you I have to rep JWORK like a mascot. You will see me at every JWORK function. I met Darrell Hunter at a networking event and was later casted as a model for several designers, including JWORK, in the 2008 C.O. Tour. I've been following JWORK Limited for about a year now. I love the story behind the fashion. JWORK is taking the city and soon the world by a storm. JWORK is becoming the next subculture.  
To me the five star lifestyle means living the American dream. 
Life should be free, fun and conscious this is transferred into the aesthetics of the cloths. Justified Wealth OReal Kings (and Kweens...) This is what real people want. 

9. What does life mean to you?
Life is growing, learning who you are as an individual in the "big picture" and living up to YOUR full potential. 

10. Are you a female that demands respect?
I am a female that is respected. I have high self esteem. I love me some Ludie. I am proud of who I am, where I come from and my achievements. I respect others, earning respect. And yes, I demand respect if someone feels any different. 

11.Do you know that you're one of the darkest females to ever be the woman of the week Ludie (You're that deal!)?
Thank you, I did not know that I was the first burst of dark chocolate drop to be your woman of the week. They've been calling me Chocolate Thunda, since last year's C.O. Tour fashion showcase. I embrace and love my darkness. I even tan. Dark is beautiful. Beauty is beauty. I don't hate on the light-skinned divas. Watch out! I'm in demand...lol.

12. Explain your fashion sense to the readers of this interview? On a fashion scale you push the limit's sometimes in shows!! Is it fair to say your Fashion IQ id above 10?
As it relates to fashion shows, I think that fashion should have no limits. On the runway, it should be dynamic and edgy. The point is to create a buzz and set trends. You have to say that I brought the big hair, retro look back in a big way since the C.O. Tour. I didn't do the fro first, but no one did it like I did it, bigger.  
I think that the fact that I am multi-cultural really influences my fashion 
aesthetic . As I said before, I wear what I want, when I want, how I want. I don't put myself in a box of current trends. I am different so I don't have to try. That is the key.

13. Dream Job?
Working for Ludie. Period.

  11. steven Says:

    Yes Ludie tell it like it is.. a billion years ago it was follow the rules or be a square what I mean is box yourself in to the "norm" your socks had better match... I think for many of us baby boomers __oh ya so it is what it is__ Traditions conquered creativity and stiffened methodology… Hummm that won’t get it today … our dreams and desires must be backed by a character such as yours willing to climb the mountain of success..

    There fore, Ludie I wish you now and evermore, the best… while I rummage thru the sock drawer looking for the combination of a green paisley and a red checker pattern for tomorrows fashion statement :)
