dress fashion makeup needs vice wear work
To me, makeup is fashion and vice versa. What I dress and what I wear always needs to work with my makeup, which is usually the same anyway.
fashion children father
I think that life has brought a lot to fashion, and fashion brings plenty to life. I took my children on photo shoots, at the same time, I borrowed my father's sweater for a photo shoot and, then, I am inspired by a Russian princess because of my Russian roots. Everything is all mixed in together.
fashion crazy serious
Fashion shows used to be more crazy. Now they've become a bit too serious.
fashion light trying
Fashion is supposed to be light and not try too hard.
fashion magazines persons
A magazine is not just one person. And a fashion shoot is the same!
fashion weekend together
When you love fashion, there is no weekend. Everything just blends together.
fashion ballerina ifs
If I could choose something besides fashion, I would love to be a ballerina.
beautiful fashion character
In fashion, it’s always better to be an interesting person than a beautiful one. Character is much more fascinating than pure good looks.
fashion international-business international
Fashion is a completely international business.
fashion coats sides
The fashion industry certainly has its obscene sides. The cost of a coat can be obscene. So can the cost of a photo shoot if you're working with a really good photographer.
fashion morning different
Each morning, you dress to become a different woman. Fashion helps.
running fashion heart
Maybe it's good a thing that people see me this way [in the documentary film]. They expect to see me with the high heels, the glamour looks, but now they will see me running through an airport with flat shoes! Also, they'll discover that stylists with "names" are in general nicer, sweeter, have a heart, have great relationships with family and friends, and that's important. It shows that people in fashion aren't just freaks.
fashion stupid thinking
At the start, I had no idea to go into fashion, because I thought people would think I was stupid. I don't worry about those things anymore.
fashion ballet tradition
Coco Chanel was always doing things with ballet, so it is a tradition clashing fashion and ballet.
