HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL VISUAL CODE?

I WOULD DESCRIBE MY VISUAL CODE AS SITUATIONAL. IT DEPENDS ON MY MOOD, THE CONTEXT AND THE OCCASION. SOMETIMES IT IS SOFT AND REFINED, OTHER TIMES BOLD AND EXPRESSIVE. I ALLOW MYSELF THE FREEDOM TO ADAPT AND REFLECT WHAT FEELS TRUE IN EACH MOMENT. STYLE FOR ME IS FLUID AS IT EVOLVES ALONGSIDE MY INNER STATE.

What fashion eras or designers shape your aesthetic?

I love the ‘60s for the freedom of expression! Mini skirts, patent boots, turtlenecks. And Jane Birkin’s style? Totally iconic! love the ‘70s for their hippie vibes - natural looks, suede, flares, and denim. The ‘80s brought tracksuits, sneakers, and bold masculine styles I adore. But the ‘90s are my favorite - supermodels, boyfriend-style suits, bold brows, high-waisted jeans, silk dresses, and that perfect mix of minimalism and masculinity.

Why do you think it is so important to know the industry from the inside, rather than just being the face of a brand?

It’s important to understand the industry from the inside to truly appreciate its value and develop a deep sense of belonging. Seeing the cause-and-effect connections helps you grasp how everything influences everything in this vast business.

HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH ANTICIPATION AND STRESS TO MAINTAIN ENERGY AND INSPIRATION? SPORTS, STRONG AND DEEP RELATIONSHIPS, NATURE AND CLEAR PERSONAL VALUES AND BOUNDARIES HELP ME COPE WITH PRESSURE. THESE ELEMENTS KEEP ME GROUNDED AND ALLOW ME TO STAY FOCUSED, BALANCED AND INSPIRED EVEN IN DEMANDING MOMENTS.

HOW DO YOU RELATE TO THE CONCEPT OF FASHION AS ART?

HAUTE COUTURE IS TRUE ART FOR ME. EACH PIECE IS HANDMADE, UNIQUE AND CREATED IN LIMITED QUANTITY. IT REFLECTS CRAFTSMANSHIP, VISION AND EMOTION. THIS IS WHERE FASHION MOVES BEYOND FUNCTION AND BECOMES A PURE FORM OF ARTISTIC EXPRESSION.

How do you interact with trends: follow, transform or avoid?

Some trends resonate with me, while others are completely unacceptable, like the "consume more, buy more" mindset. I appreciate the upcycling trend - repairing and repurposing quality pieces. I’m drawn to trends that promote conscious consumption, respect for craftsmanship, and a careful attitude toward nature.

IF YOU COULD TAKE PART IN A SHOOT WITH AN ICONIC PHOTOGRAPHER, WHO WOULD IT BE?

HELMUT NEWTON. THE WAY HE CAPTURED WOMEN'S BEAUTY, SENSUALITY AND SEXUALITY IS INCREDIBLE. HIS WORK WAS FEARLESS AND HONEST, YET ALWAYS ELEGANT. I WOULD LOVE TO EXPERIENCE THAT CREATIVE PROCESS, TO STEP INTO HIS WORLD WHERE STRENGTH AND FEMININITY MEET SO BOLDLY IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA.

WHAT ROLE DO MUSIC AND STREET FASHION PLAY IN SHAPING YOUR IMAGE? MUSIC PLAYS A FUNDAMENTAL ROLE FOR ME. IT LIFTS MY ENERGY, SETS THE RHYTHM AND CREATES THE MOOD. I CANNOT IMAGINE LIFE ON THIS PLANET WITHOUT MUSIC. IT IS ALWAYS A PART OF MY DAILY FLOW AND DEEPLY INFLUENCES HOW I FEEL AND EXPRESS MYSELF. STREET FASHION, IN TURN, BRINGS SPONTANEITY AND FREEDOM INTO MY STYLE, ADDING PERSONALITY AND EDGE TO MY IMAGE.

If you could choose another foundation that wasn't modeling, what would it be?

Acting and painting are things I can integrate with modeling. But if I were to do something completely different, I’d love to study science - especially neurobiology and physiology.

WHAT QUALITY DO YOU CONSIDER YOUR SUPERPOWER?

KINDNESS AND THE ABILITY TO ADAPT TO DIFFERENT LIFE CONDITIONS. THESE QUALITIES KEEP ME GROUNDED AND ALLOW ME TO STAY FLEXIBLE, NO MATTER WHAT ENVIRONMENT I FIND MYSELF IN.

IF YOU COULD TAKE PART IN A SHOOT WITH AN ICONIC PHOTOGRAPHER, WHO WOULD IT BE? NOT LONG AGO I WATCHED A DEEP INTERVIEW WITH GISELE BÜNDCHEN AND I WAS REALLY INSPIRED BY HER MINDSET, DEPTH AND APPROACH TO LIFE AND PARENTHOOD. AT THIS POINT, I WOULD LOVE TO WORK NOT JUST WITH ONE INDIVIDUAL PHOTOGRAPHER, BUT WITH LEGENDARY BRANDS THAT REPRESENT CULTURAL ICONS. I AM DRAWN TO EXPERIENCES THAT FEEL GREATER THAN A SINGLE PERSONALITY.

CLASSIC OR EXPERIMENTAL?

CLASSIC WITH A TOUCH OF EXPERIMENT. I LIKE WHEN THERE IS SPACE FOR BOTH STRUCTURE AND FREEDOM.

INSPIRATION OR DISCIPLINE? DISCIPLINE IS MORE RELIABLE. INSPIRATION IS FLEETING, BUT CONSISTENT WORK ALWAYS MOVES YOU FORWARD.

DREAMS OR ACTIONS? DREAMS AND DESIRES ALWAYS COME FIRST, BUT THEY MEAN NOTHING WITHOUT ACTIONS TO BRING THEM TO LIFE.
