First, we want to state that A Dae of Elegance, Daeden Jessop and KookaMonga Walpole never have and never will ask for or require money or fees from our models/staff, for any reason, to be a part of our organization or to participate in any functions or events!!!

With that said ... there have been some very valid concerns that have been brought to our attention regarding the "Certified Model SL" group that we have been promoting as a good thing for our models to join.

Please note, neither our organization or either of our partners/owners has ever been affiliated with Certified Model SL other than to be regular members. We are not part of the ownership of that organization, we do not collect any fee's or income from it and are not partnered with the organization or it's owner in any way.

Previously we were making it a requirement that our models become certified with this group. Upon further consideration and hearing more opinions, A Dae of Elegance has chosen to break ties with this unaffiliated organization at this time. If you choose to become a part of Certified Model SL, that is up to you. It is NO LONGER a requirement of employment with A Dae of Elegance.

This is first to alleviate any confusion or potential misconception or negative views of our organization that could occur as a result of our perceived relationship with "Certified Model SL."

We were excited by the concept of the group, we still think in concept, it's a great idea, but we are not comfortable, as many are not, with the way it is being operated, its goals and its statements regarding the money one must pay to be a part of the organization. We would like to keep an eye on the group for a while and see how it evolves before any further or continued association.

Kooka and I are going to stay as members of the group for now, however, anyone that we personally sent to the Certified Model SL group, that wishes to no longer be a member can see Kookamonga Walpole for a refund of the entrance fee of $350 L.

We are both terribly sorry for any confusion, concern or misunderstandings this situation has created for you!

Sincerely,
"The DaeDae" & "Miranda Priestly"
Daeden Jessop & KookaMonga Walpole
