What's Pulse Model Nell Robinson's secret? It's Victoria's Secret, as the model nabbed the first Victoria's Secret campaign for 2007.
Dubbed 'The Body' by Arena magazine upon her appearance on the cover of their first edition in 2005, Nell's stunning features and tall lithe figure will soon be admired as part of the famous lingerie family - the family that has already seen fellow Pulse model Jaunel McKenzie's debut.
Known for their voluptuous models and sexy undergarments, Victoria's Secret is the most popular lingerie brand in the world. The pages of their magazines have seen some of the world's best models such as Tyra Banks and Giselle Bundchen, Heidi Klum and Claudia Schiffer among others. Nell Robinson promises to be an important addition.
A matter of time
The courtship with Victoria's Secret began last fall when Nell saw executives on request castings in New York. Nell's network of agencies collectively believed that it was only a matter of time before Victoria's Secret took notice of her physical assets.
Nell will shoot her first pictures on the sunny shores of South Beach. According to Pulse CEO Kingsley Cooper, "she's (Nell) obviously perfect for Victoria's Secret." Cooper had introduced Nell to her London agents, Select, who booked the campaign.
Before Victoria's Secret, Nell had distinguished herself as the model for fashion's super-sexy fashion editorials and campaigns. GQ, Gossard, D Squared and a host of other major industry players have booked Nell. Other than super-sexy covers, Nell has distinguished herself by appearing in Cosmopolitan. She has also blazed the runways of London Fashion Week including closing the fashion fiesta in the clothes of the talented designer Julien McDonald. To top it off, Nell is now the face of Rimmel cosmetics.
Despite living a hectic life, Nell is taking it all in stride balancing her life as best as possible. "It is simply a matter of juggling a very hectic schedule," she said.
