Slick Woods, real name Simone Thompson, has become an unstoppable force. She first got her start when fellow model Ash Stymest spotted her at a Los Angeles bus stop at the age of 19. Woods told The Guardian that Stymest approached her and asked if she had ever modeled before. When she responded with a no, he asked her “You smoke weed?” She told the model that she did, and he passed her a joint. They proceeded to discuss modeling, with Stymest encouraging Woods to meet with his agents. “After that I never went hungry again,” she said of the encounter. “I never slept on the streets again. He made sure I lived the way he did.”
Woods has since gone on to work with some of the most influential names in the fashion industry including American Vogue, Love, i-D, Jalouse, Vogue Italia and Vogue Japan. Notably, Woods has modeled for Rihanna's Fenty Beauty, and Savage x Fenty. She is often referred to as Rihanna's muse and has been open about their bond, likening the icon to her mother. In a storylike turn of events, Woods gave birth to her son, Saphir approximately 14 hours after walking in Rihanna's NYFW Savage x Fenty show.
The model shared a recent picture of herself baring her lean midriff, proving that she remains her stylish and carefree self.
