Hello everyone + Happy Monday! I am so excited to be continuing this new series called Monday Muse and to be featuring the stunning Lori Mae Gibb this week!

I met Lori through Instagram when I was searching for models for the Haute on Broadway show back in June. Lori reached out to and said she was interested in modeling for my Noir Collection that I would be debuting at the show. I remember meeting Lori for the first time and thinking she was a total bombshell! Due to a couple of models canceling last minute, we had to redo the show order and rearrange models' looks. Lori ended up wearing the Eloise lace bralette and panties which was definitely a bold look for her first show, but she absolutely killed it on the runway! Everyone was running up to her afterwards telling her she looked like a Victoria's Secret Angel. And that she did!! Check out Lori's fab Haute on Broadway look HERE

I have so enjoyed having Lori be a part of quite literally every show since June! She has modeled for the Noir Collection, Blanc Collection, Flora & Fauna, and now the holiday collection, Angelique. It has truly been so incredible to grow together from the very beginning! Lori continues to grow and improve in her modeling each and every show. She holds her own with models who have been doing this for years whereas Lori has only been modeling for a couple of months. It just goes to show she is a natural born beauty and model! 

Lori is one of the kindest and most genuine people ever! She is so hilarious and loves showing off her multiple chins which is a true talent! You really do have to see it to believe it. ;) She is so down to Earth and makes you feel like you have been friends forever even though you just met. I always love how welcoming and inclusive she always is of new people to the group!

Thank you so much, Lori, for being such a fabulous model! I am so glad we get to go on this crazy journey together and learn and laugh along the way! I can't wait to see what big things are in store for you! <3

Tell us a little bit about yourself!

I am 22 years old and I am engaged to my love, Brandon Zolp. We are getting married in 2018! I am a Business Marketing student at UW-Stevens Point and will be graduating this December!

How did you get into modeling?

I started following Madalyn on Instagram and she was looking for models for the Haute on Broadway show back at the beginning of summer. We both loved working together and have continued to ever since!

What is your favorite part about modeling?

Modeling feels amazing! I love that feeling of beauty and confidence when I am modeling. 

What is your least favorite part about modeling?

Definitely the misconceptions surrounding modeling such as models are mean/rude and don't eat. They aren't true at all!

What has been your favorite modeling experience? 

I really enjoyed the Haute on Broadway show! All of the models were taking pictures in the back alley and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. If I hadn't had such a positive experience with my first show, I probably would not have continued modeling.

What was your most beautiful and confident moment? 

Definitely walking the Milwaukee Fashion Week runway! 

Who is your muse/inspiration?

My fiance, Brandon! I strive to be as kind as he always is.

What are you looking forward to most in 2018?

My wedding and hopefully babies!

What is your #1 modeling goal? 

I want to continue to grow with Madalyn Joy Designs and use modeling as a platform to promote other things such as anxiety and depression.
