How discovered:<\/strong>
\nI was discovered by a scout and photographer of\u00a0STARSYSTEM\u00a0in Kiev. He first scouted me on a social network and offered to take a few pictures. Afterwards, he introduced me to STARSYSTEM.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What was your first modeling job?<\/strong>
\nIt was going down the runway for Prada exclusive. And yes I was nervous, although, for some weird reason, it felt like deja-vu. It was really exciting.<\/p>\n

Favorite things:<\/strong>
\nI like challenges. When someone gives me a task that looks like I can’t to do it, it gives me ants and chills! And I feel my life will\u00a0never\u00a0be the same after you accept and fulfil this challenge.<\/p>\n

What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong>
\nPink Floyd, Gorillaz, AC\/DC, Nirvana and also I like hip-hop – Kanye West, Asap Rocky, Tyler the Creator<\/p>\n

Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong>
\nI love directors such as Paolo Sorrentino, Gaspar No\u00e9 and Steven Spielberg. Specifically I love these movies: Youth, Mommy, Irr\u00e9versible.<\/p>\n

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong>
\nNo doubt about my answer here : Gucci and Hugo Boss. I really like their style.<\/p>\n

What were you doing before modeling?<\/strong>
\nI was studying acting in Kiev. You know… being a student in Eastern Europe. Quite different than being a model in Paris \/ Milan! lol Actually, I have always been acting… since my youngest age.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?<\/strong>
\nNow I’m doing \u00a0modeling and I enjoy it. Acting is definitely what I would do instead or after – although I feel it could go together at least for a while ! Otherwise… maybe I could be a pretty cool farmer :)\u00a0<\/p>\n

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong>
\nLately I have been interested in the Scandinavian people, when they were Vikings and achieved so much. There are so many details about them that I am amazed at.\u2028<\/p>\n

Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong>
\nNot really modeling, maybe more acting… Once I was shooting for a music video in the desert and the\u00a0director\u00a0asked me to sit down in a metal box.\u00a0I was supposed to act like an animal. It was a long shooting and it was sooo hot there. In the end, while the camera was rolling, I lost consciousness… but that’s when the director screamed – “Perfect! It is exactly what I wanted to see!” Yeah well, was great but hell I had fainted for that! Still stays as a good memory. \u00a0<\/p>\n

What’s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong>
\nMy family. They always wait for me at home and it’s so nice. Maybe that’s a Ukrainian way of being! :)<\/p>\n

Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong>
\nAs I mentioned before, I would love to work for\u00a0Gucci and Hugo Boss.\u00a0I also like some brands such as H&M and Bershka. Would of course love to shoot for Vogue but also for Fucking Young magazine. I really hope to someday shoot with David Sims or Karim Sadli… or with the legend director Paolo Sorrentino (maybe he needs someone with a Russian accent – it is very “trendy” in America, no? haha).<\/p>\n

Place you would love to visit:<\/strong>
\nI liked Paris very much, it’s fabulous. So I would like to see all other famous capitals and especially – NYC. Also I would like to travel to Africa, I would like to be there like a volunteer. So if you know of opportunities, please let me know\u00a0:)\u00a0<\/p>\n

Currently you’re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong>
\nI am really focused on modeling now with castings and jobs. However the world is big and I am craving to see all of it and to meet a lot of people, and different people.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the best piece of advice you\u2019ve ever been given?<\/strong>
\nThere are two that have been with me since I heard them. The first one comes from a movie director I met once: “All you are thinking of is reflected in reality.” And the second one comes from the movie\u00a0Youth: “Let’s not get carried away with truthfulness. Remember that fiction is our passion.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
