With more than 28 years of experience in the New York City fashion industry, Venae Fowler brings a seasoned eye, extensive on-set experience, and an unparalleled understanding of fashion, image, fit, and presentation to her work as Co-Owner of Dawn + Corinne Styling.
Venae’s career as a professional fashion model has spanned nearly three decades and includes features in numerous national publications, including Essence, Ebony, Vibe, The Source, Today’s Black Woman, and Black Men, as well as a more recent appearance in People magazine. Among her most recognizable work is a national Ultra Sheen print campaign that ran for six years, establishing her as a familiar face within the beauty and fashion landscape.
Throughout her career, Venae has worked with notable fashion brands including FUBU, ENYCE, and Girbaud—brands that helped define the fashion culture of the 1990s. Her experience extends beyond print and commercial work to the runway, including walking during New York Fashion Week, as well as behind the scenes as a fit model for Tommy Hilfiger. This unique experience gave her an invaluable understanding of garment fit, construction, proportion, movement, and the way clothing translates from the designer’s vision to the individual body.
Since 2012, Venae has maintained a consistent presence at New York Fashion Week, remaining closely connected to the designers, creative community, emerging trends, and ever-evolving language of fashion. Her continued involvement allows her to bring both an appreciation for fashion’s history and a contemporary perspective to every styling experience.
Her television and entertainment credits include appearances on The Sopranos and The Chris Rock Show, as well as an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show representing Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. Her commercial and advertising work has also included Jenny Craig television commercials and digital print campaigns.
Nearly three decades of experience across fashion, print, runway, television, commercial advertising, beauty, and fit modeling have shaped Venae’s expertise far beyond simply being in front of the camera. She understands firsthand how clothing should fit, move, photograph, and communicate. She understands proportion, styling, visual balance, presentation, and the small details that can transform an outfit from simply beautiful to unforgettable.
That perspective is at the heart of her approach to styling.
As Co-Owner of Dawn + Corinne Styling, Venae brings her extensive industry knowledge, refined fashion eye, and instinctive understanding of the body and garment together to create looks that feel polished, intentional, elevated, and authentic to each client.
Her philosophy is simple: great style is not about following every trend—it is about understanding the individual, knowing what works, and creating a visual presence that makes the person wearing it feel confident, powerful, and completely themselves.
With 28+ years of fashion industry experience and an enduring passion for style, Venae brings a rare combination of industry expertise, real-world experience, and creative vision to every client and project.
Experience is her foundation. Style is her language. Confidence is the final look.

Co-Owner & Style Consultant
Fashion has always been more than an interest for Shalaine—it has been an integral part of her story, her career, and the way she expresses confidence and individuality.
A natural performer from the age of three, Shalaine began her journey as a singer and performer, eventually attending a prestigious professional performing arts high school. Her performance career has taken her to extraordinary stages and experiences, including performing for Pope John Paul II at the Vatican, as well as alongside and in tribute to legendary artists including Gloria Gaynor and John Denver. She also performed at the Yitzhak Rabin memorial service at Madison Square Garden. These experiences shaped her appreciation for presentation, presence, storytelling, and the transformative power of stepping into a room with confidence.
Her connection to fashion began early and evolved through seven years of modeling, including runway work with Barbizon Modeling. For Shalaine, fashion has always been a natural extension of performance—the art of communicating who you are before you ever say a word.
Today, Shalaine brings that creative eye into a second world: corporate leadership. With more than 20 years of experience as a Human Resources Director, she understands firsthand the importance of professional presence and the role personal style plays in how we show up. From boardrooms and executive meetings to client presentations and major professional moments, Shalaine knows that the right wardrobe can elevate confidence, command a room, and communicate intention.
Her perspective is uniquely multifaceted. She understands the woman behind the wardrobe—the executive, entrepreneur, mother, wife, creative, and everyday woman who wants to feel polished, confident, authentic, and beautifully represented by what she wears.
As a wife, mother, and proud dog mom, Shalaine understands that fashion must work within real life while still allowing personal style to shine. She believes style should never feel like a costume; it should feel like an elevated expression of who you already are.
As Co-Owner of Dawn + Corinne Styling, Shalaine combines her background in performance, modeling, corporate leadership, and fashion to help clients discover and refine their own visual identity. Her approach is intentional, sophisticated, fashion-forward, and deeply personal—whether styling for the boardroom, a special occasion, an editorial moment, a milestone, or simply the next chapter of your life.
For Shalaine, there is nothing more powerful than seeing a client look in the mirror and recognize the woman she has always known herself to be.
Fashion is the expression. Confidence is the statement. Your style is your story.
Shalaine is proud to help bring that story to life through Dawn + Corinne Styling.
