Meet Kenyan Fashion And Runway Model, Purity Njeri: Breaking Boundaries, One Runway at a Time

 Purity Njeri is a  21-year-old Kenyan fashion model from Murang’a County, currently living in Kikuyu Central. She is a young woman with a powerful drive and passion for modeling.Being the youngest in a family of three siblings she has always had a deep love for dancing, one of her favorite hobbies. Her dedication to the fashion and beauty industry has earned her several prestigious titles, including Miss Kabete Constituency 2023/24, Miss Popularity, The Real Miss Beauty, and 1st Runner-Up at Miss Kikuyu Dinery.

For Purity, modeling has always been more than a hobby—it’s a career she has been passionate about from a young age. However, her journey has not been without challenges. One of the major issues she has faced is criticism, which she believes stems from a lack of understanding about the modeling industry. She has also had to confront body shaming, a hurtful experience that affects many models.

Despite being a victim of body shaming, Purity has learned valuable lessons in self-confidence. She now believes that trying to impress everyone is a futile effort, and that other people’s opinions should not dictate one's life choices. In her view, "You are in control of your own life, and no one should tell you that you can’t achieve something based on your appearance."

Purity views modeling as a career that requires discipline, hard work, and commitment. She emphasizes the importance of showing up on time, consistently refining one’s skills, and never settling for mediocrity. She believes that success in modeling, as in life, is rooted in consistency and persistence. To her, age is never a barrier to achieving one’s dreams.
