Pulse star Jeneil Williams celebrates the publication of her editorial in the hip hop magazine Trace this month just in time for her return to the New York market, where she is expected to create her usual mayhem within the top group of new stars currently garnering international success.

Already a two time cover girl for Italy's fashion book BMM and the Caribbean fashion bible SHE magazine, Jeneil's feature in Trace is another glamorous step on her journey to becoming the Caribbean's next supermodel.

Heralded as the bible of hip hop culture, it was understandable that the Trace magazine shoot would incorporate its demographics' definitive urban style, "The shoot for Trace had a completely different feel from all the other shoots I've been on," said the teen beauty, "I loved the Hip Hop feel and being able to dress up like a boy."

Rocking a male tuxedo as well as donning Reebok and Adidas sneakers, cool hoodies and even a grill in her mouth, stylist Donald Lawrence made great use of Jeneil's diversity and strong exquisite features.

Shots by photographer Don Cunningham, the locations for Jeneil's eight page Trace feature took place across the New York area including downtown Manhattan and the city's Central Park.

This jet black beauty with the incredible lips and bone structure is on hold for New York clients including Jennifer Venditti (Benetton), Bloomingdales, Nordstroms, Elle, Marie Clarie and Cosmo Girl who will now be able to utilise her services as she returns to that market in October.

With a major campaign already under her belt, Bennetton 2005 fall/winter, this young star is yearning for more. Williams who was discovered in the 2005 Caribbean Model Search, captured the hearts of the Bennetton executives at her casting call back in May. The campaign, which was shot by ace fashion photographer David Simms appeared on billboards, magazines and stores all over the U.S. and Europe.

Her booker, Steven Bermudez of New York Models remarks that, "Jeneil is stunning and is not even scratching the surface of her immense potential in the fashion business ... She has wonderful features, great skin and a fabulous body and we believe she will have long term success."
