Q: Do you prefer working on shoots or at shows?
I like both.
I love shoots because you can show your character or act like a different person. You can travel for a shoot, see the most beautiful locations, the most interesting people and learn about different cultures.
Shows are great as well. I love the month of fashion weeks. There is a lot to do, running from one show to another. You see almost every day the same people that you work with. It’s almost like a big family.
Q: What would you dare to learn?
French.

I cant live without my friends, family and Italian food.
