BIOGRAPHY JULIA SARR-JAMOIS

  Julia Sarr-Jamois is the 23 year old fashion editor for Wonderland magazine. She became the editor in November, 2010 and has since become a fixture amongst the style set during the European fashion weeks. She is known for her perfect afro and unique mixture of denim, color and accessories.

 Julia's first foray into fashion was as a model for Diesel and Fred Perry, however she felt that she needed a more creative career, so delved into styling. She began an internship at I-D magazine after leaving college.

 Her love of vintage fashion stems from her mother's stall at the Brixton market, during the 80s. She confides that most of her favorite denim is from her mother's collection.

 Her work, which typically plays with unexpected clashes of texture and idiom, has featured in a variety of international style publications, including i-D, and has won her commercial clients including Topshop, Moschino Cheap & Chic (who tapped Julia to style their debut London show in spring 2012), Asos, McQ and Sass & Bide.
 Unanimously celebrated for her own personal style and taste, she has curated personal pop-up shops for Topshop in London and New York and is regularly included in the best dressed lists of publications including Vogue US and Vogue Nippon.

  Julia Sarr is a Mezzo-soprano born in Dakar (Senegal) from the Serer ethnic group. As one of the most sought after backing vocalist, she has worked with several prominent artists over the years including Youssou N'Dour and Patrice Larose. Julia launched her singing career based on West Africa’s polyrhythmic signatures rooted in her Serer heritage with Fela Kuti (Fela Anikulapo Kuti) who was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist musician and composer as well as the pioneer of Afrobeat music. Julia became one of the most sought-after backing vocalist in Paris where she has lived for over twenty years working with artists like Jean-Jacques Goldman, Michel Fugain, MC Solaar, Julio Iglesias and the celebrated Senegalese singer Youssou N’Dour. For several years, Julia Sarr had shared the stage and studio with the Congolese singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Lokua Kanza. She has also worked with Jean-Claude Petit (the French composer and arranger) singing in a cappella in his score for Raoul Peck's film Lumumba (2010) starring Eriq Ebouaney. After nurturing her solo aspirations and songwriting quietly for years, Julia partnered with Patrice Larose, a flamenco-inspired French guitarist with whom she has released an album titled "Set Luna" (on the No Format! and Universal Jazz labels in Europe and on the boutique label Sunnyside Records in the United States). "Set Luna", from the Wolof language translates to "So I’ve Observed" which they performed in the United States at the Carnegie Hall on 24 October 2005 to great reviews.
