Customer Appreciation Swimsuit Photo Shoot
So this blog has been stagnant for a while and I've been getting hate mail (just kidding but not really) with people asking me when I am going to update the blog again...so here we go!
Remember last year when we did the Customer Appreciation Photo Shoot which featured 7 of our fabulous customers made over in the convertible dress??? Well this year we decided to do the same thing BUT we are featuring 7 customers in....drum roll please....the new 2011 plus size swimsuit collection!
We asked each customer to bring their current swimsuit for the before shot and then we dressed them in a Monif C. swimsuit. Some girls (naming no names) thought they were "doing-it!" in their swimsuit until they saw the before and after pictures. Safe to say they all have ordered their Monif C. swimsuit!
Here we go, 7 beautiful and fabulous women, a little makeup juge by the fabulous Tara Taylor, styling by Brandon, and Stanley Debas behind the camera! No camera tricks, no faking the funk, you too can look THIS amazing in your Monif C. swimsuit!
I am Monif C., You are Monif C.
Check out pics and behind the scenes video below!

Special thanks to all the women that took time out of their busy lives to come do the shoot! Thanks to Tara Taylor for banging out all the makeup by herself, Brandon for styling, my sister Krissy for doing all the videos, and Stanley for photography! Are you a Monif C. customer that wants to be involved in the next customer photo shoot? Leave a comment here and get ready for the next shoot!

When are you coming down to the Miami/ Fort Lauderdale area???
TheeBeautifulOne | Apr 14, 2011 @ 10:36 AM
All of the ladies look wonderful…..I’m a little angry that the Capri suit is out of stock, but next time I’ll act a little quicker. I still have suit from last year and as summer is fastly approaching, I guess I can romp around on South Florida beaches in it. Great job on the make up, styling and pictures.

This southern belle would like to make the cash register “ring” even more, when I show some “SOUTH CAROLINA SMILES” in your next photo shot. This 44 year believes she deserves a well deserved day of pampering.

i for one would absolutely love to do a photo shoot, my friend is tanya that worked with u and she is a beautiful person inside and out, and she can rock anything she wants but when i met her and she told me about this line, i was shocked because she is gorgeous and i want to dress the same way
Honika Plowdeniz | Apr 14, 2011 @ 12:23 PM
Lovin also their confidence and self esteem! Monif should start a Self-Esteem workshop for teenage plus size school girls. If you need help with this let me know!

toccara | Apr 14, 2011 @ 12:29 PM
Werk it gurls. All of these lovely young ladies were beaming with confidence its great to see our curvy girl rock!!!
Honika Plowdeniz | Apr 14, 2011 @ 12:34 PM
Monif, just a suggestion. You really should concerned plus size teen age girls. I remember going to the beach with friends in shorts and a t-shirt because there were no swimsuits for plus size teenagers.
I agree with you Toccara! Love your unique name!

These makeovers are amazing… it’s incredible what a flattering swimsuit can do to your shape! Looks like it was a fun day too… love all the styles of swimsuits!! Truly unique and one of a kind. Thanks Monif for creating these.
Candice | Apr 21, 2011 @ 5:26 PM
Beautiful swimsuits. Excited about buying one. Where do I sign up for the next photo shoot? I live in Atlanta and would love to participate. I got married in the Marilyn Convertible Dress. It was amazing! I love Monif C!
Kemisha | Apr 21, 2011 @ 7:44 PM
The ladies look HAWT tamale!! I am DEF a fan of Monif C line. I purchased the same Hot pink swimsuit for a trip to the bahamas/miami last year and the guy (and girls) were ON IT!!! I recently bought an amazing black dress from the line for new years and my style is very edgy and classy sexy sofisticated and you CANNOT find many plus size brands that suit your shape and have you feel sexy and the life of the party. MONIF C IS DEF A WINNER IN MY BOOK! I would love to represent for the sexy beautiful curvy women and also do a shoot!
Ethnie Weekes | Apr 28, 2011 @ 9:19 AM
