JUICEBOX 26
What has been the most memorable task that you were asked to do ?
The days before the shows , the entire team together with all the interns was working at the Crillon Hotel , one of the most luxurious hotels in Paris . This was definitely one of the most exciting and vibrant moments for me . It was really there that the whole collection was coming to life , that all the pieces on which we had worked for months were finally mixed and matched and paired with the right shoes and bags and jewels in order to give birth to the final perfect looks . I had to run from the atelier and the hotel back and forth in order to get the pieces that little by little were finished by the seamstress and to make sure every single piece was in the right place ready to be fitted on the model . The tasks were very different and all very stimulating ; we had castings , assisting the make up artists and the photographers during the photo shoot .
Do you have any other ambitions to fulfill ? Or are you happy to continue in this industry ?
I am very happy to pursue my dream to bscome a fashion designer and already this final year together with my internships have taught me a lot about this industry .
Where do you hope to see yourself in ten years ? Well , life is always unpredictable … I like to think about myself as a satisfied woman with a good job that makes me happy and friends and a family that supports me . Every job but especially this one which constantly tests your nerves and makes you feel under pressure all the time , it is very important to have some friends and special people to rely on .
What advice do you have for aspiring fashion designers ? My suggestion is to believe all the time in who you are and what you do and pursue your dreams . Apply for the best universities and work very hard .
