In the dynamic world of media and entertainment, Nini Amerlise, a pioneering Canadian supermodel, stands as a beacon for change. At the helm of the transformative “True Faces Diversity Campaign,” presented by NA Management Inc. and powered by We Are Royals, she challenges beauty norms and champions diversity globally.
Nini, CEO at Faith-Based creatives agency NA Management Inc, uses her platform to normalize the representation of diverse immigrants, collaborating with influential platforms such as African Fashion Week Toronto, Rolling with Kings Records, immigrant Magazine, GT Network, and Vogue Italia. The campaign isn’t just a surface-level initiative; it’s a comprehensive tool addressing harmful beauty standards.
We Are Royals, spanning North America and Africa, takes meaningful actions: promoting safer digital spaces, offering mental health support, advocating for diverse advertising, monitoring harmful products, promoting body confidence in schools, fighting appearance-based discrimination with laws, and emphasizing social media literacy.
NA Management’s smaller projects celebrated diversity with models like Mahalia Jackson and Cieanna Campbell. The True Faces Campaign showcased creatives beyond models, reflecting unique features rarely celebrated in the media.
Led by Nini and creatively directed by her, the campaign featured individuals like B’kem, a Multi-award winning Afro-Christian artist; Raven M., freckled beauty breaking norms; Elizabeth S., a Latina Curve model challenging standards; and many others.
The campaign’s transformative touch, through makeup by Jae Monique and wardrobe styling by Kimyette Jenkins, adds vibrancy, emphasizing that True Faces isn’t just about showcasing beauty but making a powerful statement about embracing diversity.
Harmful beauty standards have staggering consequences, costing Americans over $300 billion in 2019. The urgency of Nini’s mission is evident in statistics revealing the hardships faced by those experiencing appearance-based discrimination. The True Faces Campaign, captured by Ellen Yang Photography, resonates as a bold initiative, countering negative impacts and setting the stage for a paradigm shift in the fashion and beauty industry.
With NA Management Inc. and Nini Amerlise leading the charge, the True Faces Campaign stands as a catalyst for change, proving that beauty knows no boundaries and inspiring a more inclusive representation that transcends demographics and countries.
