Slay Week ATL: What To Know

You can watch Slay Week’s premiere on Youtube.com/aladynamedpearl this month.

Slay Week ATL is about disrupting the fashion industry one model at a time. According to the website, here’s the motivation behind Slay Week. “The modeling industry is often narrow-casted as just about physical appearance and presenting only the façade of the person. However, Linda Pearl Fils-Aime has discovered a new way to upend the old modeling industry to become a tool to help shape future global leaders of all sizes, gender, perspectives and mindsets.”

The founder of Slay Week ATL is content creator and producer Linda “Pearl” Fils-Aime, who runs her company, A Lady Named Pearl LLC.
