NATALIE SUAREZ

MODEL / SINGER / EDITOR

Every field has its pioneers. Fashion blogging is no different. For those of you that have followed Natalie Off-Duty from the beginning, you’ve seen the evolution of the fashion blog, of the model/muse, of collaborative fashion.

What was once a discussion about an outfit with a few loyal followers has heightened to a job title that didn’t exist 20 years ago – the fashion blogger. This is what New Originals do. They blaze a path that no one else sees, and they lead us down that path with them. They challenge the way we see the world by showing us their world. They show us that a concept that may have seemed one-dimensional, like fashion, is anything but.
