WYNCOTE, PA—In March of 2012, Suddenly Fem embarked on a model search for a new cover girl for their business, the one-and-only US fashion line designed and manufactured for the male-to-female crossdresser and transgender shopper. Suddenly Fem has shot on location in studios and lavish locations in Philadelphia, New York and Los Angeles for the past 15 years.
A nationwide search was initiated and hundreds of submissions from beautiful T-girls were submitted via email and snail mail.
One submission, from a local girl who saw the ad in the Philadelphia Gay News stood out from the rest. Her name was Mercedes. Her pictures were simple, well done, and she replicated the poses (as requested) from previous Suddenly Fem catalog models.
Mercedes has done some runway modeling as well as acting in the past, with a part in the movie Bikini Bandits starring Corey Feldman. The 5'10" raven-haired beauty admits, "I've always been comfortable in heels. I'm more comfortable in heels than in flats. I can run in them!"
Suddenly Fem runs full-scale photo shoots with a large staff each season. Ms. Demarko was not as familiar with modeling so the staff at Suddenly Fem was more than willing to help her polish her skill set.
"Mercedes was a natural at the initial casting sessions," said Tyler DeSouza, VP of Operations. "She only needed a little bit of training on body posture and creating a sexy, relaxed presentation. Suddenly Fem has its own signature poses and it only took her a couple practice sessions to master the distinct look that we require of all our models. Mercedes is sweet, sincere, and quite the professional. She is always most interested in making sure that we have the shot... and that is the sign of a great model."
Mercedes will be working as one of Suddenly Fem's exclusive models and will be featured in most of the upcoming 2013 and 2014 Fashion Launch catalogs. To get to know more about this model, a blog post is available at the company's blog website.
Suddenly Fem is one of the largest retailers to the cross-dresser and transgender M2F shopper in the USA. They are not only a retailer but a designer and manufacturer of virtually every product in their mail order catalogs and online store.
