Real “Housewife” of Atlanta/Supermodel Cynthia Bailey celebrated the grand opening of her dream come true.
Cynthia recently held a launch party for her school of fashion, where she confirmed plans to partner with colleague Marcus Jackson of CALIBER Enterprises (a fashion, event and talent management consulting company).
Coined “The Bailey Agency,” the school is Cynthia’s personal vision for an instructional program that will offer students an intense 6-week course covering all areas of the fashion industry including modeling, photography and production.
The launch party drew the attention of fashion industry vets throughout Atlanta, such as designer Mychael Knight and celebrity photographer Derek Blanks and was also taped for an upcoming episode of the The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
That being said, you already know each and every one of the Atlanta “housewives” were in the building (even rumored “newbie” /ex-convict Marlo Hampton) to celebrate the launch and mug it up for the cameras!
Cute couple 
Apollo Nida and Phaedra Parks (She is WEARING that dress!)
More photos…
Marlo Hampton and Cynthia Bailey
Remember where you heard about Marlo first? RIGHT HERE!
[Sidebar: The former stylist ain't playin no games when it comes to fashion! My inside sources say that Marlo has been sh*ttin' on 'em stylewise this season.]
Cynthia & Kandi
Kim Zolciak and her boo/baby daddy Kroy Biermann
I heard that in addition to Kim’s spin-off show, there will be a surprising new twist in her relationship with the other ladies. I’m told that Kim’s parents will be making several appearances on the show and some of their comments have a few racial undertones that won’t sit well with the cast. Stay tuned….]
Kim’s already shed the baby weight…
Celeb photographer Derek Blanks
Sheree Whitfield & Cynthia Bailey
Cynthia & designer Mychael Knight
NeNe Leakes is all smiles…
[Sidebar: This event was way before her son Bryson got locked up (again) for stealing outta Walmart]
There were no signs of Greg this time, but just a few days later, he and NeNe were all boo’d up in New Orleans during the Essence Festival.
Makeup Artist Christian Balenciaga is just way to FABULOUS for words…
I’m sending positive vibes and best wishes to Cynthia in her new venture.
Q: Cynthia is a fashion industry pioneer, would you pay to learn from her expertise?

Nope but best wishes to her
No but if she has some nice designer items, I would be happy to take them off of her hands. Lol
She is trying 2 say that her modeling career is over an this is her fall back lol.
Lol,anit thats sumthing ladies she crazy
Nope! I haven’t seen her do things of modeling that I would want to pay to learn.
Okay, I’m aware that this event actually took place a couple of week ago.
However…why is Nene wearing leather pants in JULY in ATLANTA?!! REALLY? I know its hot as hell right now adn she looks a complete fool. Leather pants & a almost there shirt…she looks absolutely ridiculous!
that is all
sheree loves modeling her oversize bags at after 6 gatherings. s/n she’s aging gracefully
@Veida that’s a Birkin bag so it’s ok
@Texas T Ne Ne has always looked a hot mess so this isn’t nothin new. She’s ugly inside n out and her clothes r worst. Now Cynthia WAS a model and a very good one but to open this school is a big risk. I pray good things on her n this venture 
she gotta 10-12 thousand dollar bag and rents her house. what an idiot.
I would pay Marlo to kindly hand over that dress. But thats about it.
This new venture of hers is a DISASTER waiting to happen! And what the heck does NeNe have on?!! HOT AZZ MESS!
Back to Sheree’s bag why is that so important to her ? She needs to dress better stop hiding behind them. Pheadra and Apllo look great.
The school is a huge risk and to who can learn all about fashion, modeling and photogoraphy in 6 weeks? *blank stare*
Nene…hot mess. Leather pants + Hotlanta summer = stanky cooch!
Sheree…has atleast 2 Birkins, an Aston Martin & a presidential rolex along with many high priced heels and lord only knows how much that hair on her head set her back. I hope this heffa is #1. saving and #2 owns the house she’s living in. B/c if she’s renting I’m ashamed for her.
phadra and apollo look very nice i think she is the only one that can pay her bills..o and kim
is that christian balenciaga person a man or woman seriously i cant tell
Big Nene in the leather britches. I bet she sweated all night. You can take her out the hood; but you can’t take the hood out of her. I wonder if those are the same stank britches she had on in New Orleans a few weeks ago with Greg.
I love Kandi but she never seems to be put together. She looks unpolished…stinky.

i think that phaedra looks great in her dress and her makeup is always flawless. As for NeNe the leather in the ATL are risky but only she can pull that off. Sheree??????? I mean she has a 20,000 Berkin bag which she always tries to front like she has it like shes got it like that,but her living arrangements say otherwise. I think she needs to get a grip on her fiances and use her postion on the show to get back on her feet minuis the diva attitude!
What magazines did this supermodel pose for? Who was the photog? When did she go to South Africa for a shoot? Is she lying….no question mark…
Rachael knows for fact, Cynthia was a model….show!!! Is this from the word of your friend of employer
