What do you have for lunch on a Sunday?
Pasta, hands down! When I came to Italy, I fell in love with pasta, pesto and carbonara sauce…wow, I’d love to have a bowl of pasta right now!
Running in the park or training in the gym?
Running in the park early in the morning! I just love to hear the birds tweeting around the city.

Milky Way chocolate bars were my go-to snack as a child!
Vintage or straight from the catwalk?
That’s a tough call, I like both.

London or New York City?
I’d say London, as I’ve never been to the U.S. before.
Reading or watching Netflix?
It depends on the mood, but usually Netflix.
How would you describe your personal style?
I’d say comfortable yet stylish.
Skateboard or electronic scooter?
Electronic scooter!
How do you dress for a date? What about castings?
I love to wear vintage. For castings, I try to look as good as possible, but I always end up wearing a pair of jeans…

Is there something you had to wear for a job that you wished you could bring home?
A Stephen Jones for Dior AW21 hat!
What’s the most common misconception about modeling?
People think models are stupid and all they’ve got is a pretty face and body, but that’s far from the truth!
Do you have any advice for those who want to start a career in the fashion industry?
Always be yourself!
What’s your favourite perfume?
Dior Savage and Dior Homme.
What’s your relationship with social networks? How do you deal with online criticism?
I’m not into social networks. Online criticism really hurts sometimes, because it can feel like it’s about you on a personal level. The good thing about online criticism is that you don’t have to reply!
What’s your favourite song?
‘Young Folks’ by Peter Bjorn and John.
