Calling all Black Female Greeks (in the NYC area)...
 

Suede Casting Call
Black Female Greeks
October 20-October 29
Ages 18-34
Sizes 0-8
Height: 5'3 and above
Call Nana at (212) 642-0259

*Disclaimer* Y'all don't yell at me for the age/size/height requirements. I'm just the messenger.

What do they need Soror's and Sistergreeks for?

I guess to show their asses (modeling). Tsk tsk too bad I'm not in NYC nor a soror....I could make some cash.

I guess I should have included that info in the initial post, but from what I understand, they're doing a spread on D9 sororities in their spring issue. I've been told that the writer of the piece is Greek (don't remember which org) and has permission from each org's HQ to run it. I'm sure that once those that are intersted contact Nana, they will receive all the info they need to decide if they want to participate.

I'm not sure what type of magazine you think Suede is, but I assure you that no members of the D9 are being asked to show their a$$es and there will be no monetary compensation involved.

For those who don't know, Suede
 

Is a pretty good new mag by Essence Communications for the 18-34 demographic. They did a tasteful layout of church women for their debut issue.

I have a copy, although I'm six years out of their age range. Now if Essence would do a mag for 35+ AfAm women who are bigger than a size 8, I'd be very happy.:p

Re: For those who don't know, Suede
 

I think that if Suede (or any mag for that matter) focused on women 18+ that were bigger than a size 8, then I'd be really happy too!!! :D :p

Lookin' good, y'all
 

I'm not sure when this issue of Suede is coming out, but here are the photos that will be included in the sorority spread:

Soror, I can't see them...

Then it's probably my computer, which has been acting up.
:o

THESE ARE AMAZING!!

I right clicked, clicked on properties and then copied and pasted the code in a new browser window. Bamboozled, I will get the codes and hook you up. ;)

Ok, CT4 hooked me up. You should be able to see them now. Thanks, CT4!!!!

I can't wait to get this issue. I LOVE SUEDE! I am happy to be a subscriber! It almost makes me not want to renew my Lucky subscription....

Now I can see them, and they are beautiful pictures. Suede did a good job with the layout. I'm not surprised that they are nice; I recall the churchgoing women's layout in the first edition.

How splendid! And, do my eyes deceive me or is that an Omega Phi Beta in the last picture (all the way on the left)??

Very interesting. I'll be looking for this issue :)

No, your eyes are correct. The caption does say that she's a member of Omega Phi Beta. Can't say that I've ever heard of them.

I was trying to figure out whose organization hand sign that was. I've never heard of Omega Phi Beta. Is it a BGLO?

From the National Website (http://www.omegaphibeta.org):
Example of the handsign:

looking quite good, ladies.

Beautiful and very tastefully done.

I just canceled my subscription but I will buy this issue.

Does this magazine come out on a monthly basis? The last issue I saw and bought has Eve on the cover? Bamboozled, do you know when this issue will be on the stands?

I received the March issue yesterday, the magazine seems pretty ecletic;)

I saw this issue (it's the March issue with Zoe Saldana on it) the article is rather small and it really only focuses on the dresses. One Soror had on a dress that was worth nearly 20K :eek: . They did list the names of the ladies and their respective orgs/schools. Don't know if I'm really feeling the actual magazine though.

I think it was a true fashion layout. In the first issue, they did one of women who are involved in their church. They didn't have much more than the clothes in that either.

I'm older than the target market for the actual magazine. I wish someone would do a mag for AfAm women over 35 and who are not a size 8 or smaller, but that's truly wishful thinking.

I have to do a Spelman shout-out. The Delta in red was made in Eta Kappa at Spelman.

That blue dress is slammin.'
