Félise: An ICONIC Journey of Emotion, Fashion, and Self-Expression

For Félise, modeling is not simply a creative outlet — it is a personal evolution. Based in France, just outside of Paris, she is surrounded daily by art, history, and fashion — an environment that continuously fuels her passion for self-expression. The city’s timeless elegance and creative energy have played a quiet but powerful role in shaping her identity as a model.

Though she has been modeling for one year, Félise’s journey already reflects depth, intention, and emotional awareness. In a short time, she has grown not only creatively, but personally — discovering confidence, clarity, and a stronger connection to herself through the camera lens.

Her personal style mirrors that evolution. Versatile by nature, Félise moves effortlessly between refined elegance and streetwear, always finishing each look with a subtle touch of glamour. She doesn’t confine herself to one aesthetic — instead, she allows fashion to shift with her mood, her message, and the story being told.

From childhood, modeling lived quietly in her heart. It was never about surface beauty or trends, but about expression and courage. Choosing to pursue modeling became a way to build self-confidence and prove to herself that she could step outside her comfort zone — even when fear was present. Each shoot became a small act of bravery, slowly transforming uncertainty into self-belief.

A defining moment arrived during a photoshoot for an open call competition. Standing in front of the camera, Félise felt an undeniable connection — a realization that modeling was not simply posing, but a way to communicate emotion through imagery. That experience marked a turning point, confirming that this path was not just something she enjoyed, but something she needed to pursue seriously.

While every shoot has carried meaning, one project remains especially close to her heart. Her shoot for Journée du Cœur, photographed by @jlpitiwazo_photographe, stands as her favorite. The project allowed fashion to transcend aesthetics and become a vehicle for emotional storytelling — proving that images can hold power, vulnerability, and message all at once.

FashFélise’s fashion inspirations run deep, rooted in artistry and history. She draws from iconic designers such as Alexander McQueenYves Saint LaurentDiorSchiaparelliArmani, and Rick Owens — creatives known for shaping fashion into something emotional, architectural, and fearless. These influences are further enriched by her love for the golden age of haute couture, the romance of Victorian fashion, the daring spirit of the Roaring Twenties, and the bold femininity of the 1990s girl power era.

Preparation for shoots and runway moments is a ritual grounded in balance. Félise prioritizes rest, studies mood boards with care, and values building genuine connections with the creative team. Most importantly, she releases pressure. Rather than striving for perfection, she allows herself to be fully present — letting emotion guide her movements and expressions. This authenticity brings a quiet intensity to her work, one that resonates deeply through the lens.

Among her proudest achievements are her features in Selin MagazineVigour Magazine, and Hollyway Magazine. Each publication represents a meaningful step forward — milestones that validate her growth and reinforce her belief that authenticity has a place in the fashion industry.

Beyond the camera, Félise is described by friends as sunny and joyful, yet calm and introspective. A dreamer at heart, she carries a romantic softness — thoughtful, imaginative, and often lost in possibility. This duality is reflected in her work, giving her presence both warmth and depth.

To aspiring models, her message is gentle but powerful: believe in your dreams and remain true to who you are, even when the industry feels demanding or uncertain. Authenticity, she believes, is not something to hide — it is something to protect.

What makes Félise truly ICONIC is her authenticity. Her petite height. Her hair color. Her gaze. And most importantly, the freedom she embraces in being entirely herself. She does not attempt to fit into an image — she honors her individuality and allows it to shine.

In doing so, Félise reminds us that true ICONIC presence is not created by perfection, but by truth, emotion, and courage.
