This key career milestone is truly an important milestone for the Woods by Jordyn label in its very first runway presentation during Fashion Week. The Kim Shui show had the collection present, and that must be called the zenith of Woods’ budding fashion career. The inclusion of a very sought-after model and developer marks a huge step ahead of Woods into the quick world of fashion.

Jordyn really has had one of those weeks and she just couldn’t hide her joy. The Woods label by Jordyn had its first exposure through Kim Shui at Fashion Week. An Instagram post charged with positivity sees Woods thanking Kim Shui profusely with statements including “so many PINCH ME moments” for showing up with her new collection.
Pictures exist from this moment. This two-part image gave the whole story: on one side, elegantly typed out was “Kim Shui”, whereas that was contrasted against the moment of the model gliding down the runway in one of the dazzling shimmering black dresses from the Woods collection as captured by another. The runway moment would thus be some landmark for a fledgling designer when one thinks of the scale of the audience and the professional lighting.
Woods had every reason to be smiling. Any designer would count an appearance at Fashion Week to be extremely big, having made her label from nothing. Kim Shui, an established designer gave an endorsement of sorts to the Woods by Jordyn collection, and therefore Woods was taken seriously in the fashion industry and perhaps even away from just a title of being a model and reality TV personality.
The comment box exploded with love and celebrations of her success. One heartfelt comment came from someone very close to Woods, “It makes my heart warm to be apart of fulfilling your dreams! One down and many more to come!” That sums up almost every person who has been witness to Woods’ life.
Another fan expressed all that was on many people’s minds, “Beautiful to see you flourishing. Can’t wait to purchase!” These comments expressing their excitement for her success and eagerness to support her commercially exhibit the long journey that Woods has undertaken to build real rapport with her audience.
More excitement flowed with, “Awesome congratulations luv all the designs wishing you successful,” while another poetically exclaimed, “You are as big as the world in my little heart.” The sheer positivity is evidence of Woods’ having carved out a community that rallies behind her accomplishments.
That Fashion Week moment goes far beyond glamour, pretty clothes on a runway and massive validation of Woods herself as an actual fashion designer. Being tied to an industry-established name like Kim Shui gives the much-needed clout that can take her almost anywhere. Moving from modeling to entrepreneurship and marking the runway debut for fashion would also grant Woods a higher level of elevation.
On the other hand, this success also marks the growing stature of the celebrity-governed fashion labels, especially when such labels can themselves secure recognition from within the industry aside from their very own built-in fanbases. What Woods’ triumph denotes is that, with talent and persistence, those labels do indeed deserve to be officially recognized on-runway next to the most revered fashion houses in the world.
