    “Josie Borain is a fashion world anomaly, from her unlikely path into the fashion world and her striking androgynous looks to her decision to settle down in Cape Town, she is a model mother like no other.”

    The above passage is from an incredibly interesting story published in 2011 in The New Age. Which goes on to say:

    JOSIE grew up in the leafy northern suburbs of Johannesburg and after a frustrating battle with matric she decided to head to the mother city to start a life for herself. “I was terrible at school,” she says, “I failed matric twice and then went to Cape Town to start a career in fashion buying.” She soon discovered that she needed a matric certificate to enter the industry and after a brief, forgettable internship, a friend encouraged her to give modelling a try and it wasn’t long till the Parisian and New York fashion worlds beckoned. Her unusual androgynous looks made Josie one of the most sought after models of her era and she ushered in a brand new direction in the fashion world.

    “The modelling industry was very different back then,” Josie notes. “We used to work with designers on a day-to-day basis, we’d be clothes horses for them before they showed their work to the rest of the world. This work, she says, is something models today are far too precious to do, “it’s something they’d see as beneath them.”

    Josie took this incredible opportunity to work with designers like Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren up close and personal and learnt much about the industry along the way.

    2oceansviber, James Stewart sent in this video called ‘Angel Rust,’ featuring Josie Borain.

    According to James:

    We decided to start making stuff for the pure thrill of it.

    Amazing images lurk on the hard drives of creatives everywhere.

    We love creating music. So we’re just connecting the dots to see where it takes us.

    Our latest victim is Josie Borain who shot the footage on her Bolex during the height of her reign as an international superfoxy supermodel. She’s still hot. But now she makes movies, ads, edits magazines and is a Mom and photojournalist.

    Super cool, James – thanks for that 😉
