^ oh please tell me more about her panic attack and how A.W. casted her
-
Did you had a panic attack on the runway?
- I did, last year!
-
Why, what happend?
- Well, it was almost like mission impossible. The catwalk was dark, narrow, almost 6 feet hight, the heels were almost 20cm, and the light was so bright on us that we could barely see the catwalk and where we were stepping. When I saw that during the rehearsal, I started think "oh god this is too hight, i'm gonna fall, i'm gonna get hurt" and then started to panic and cry.
-
So what happened, did you walked?
- Yes, I had to. I went down crying and drying my tears.
(She said it was at Helmut Lang, so it must be the spring 2012 show.)

You did Tom Ford's movie too, it was a small cameo right?
- Yes, it was a very small cameo and how I got picked was very unusual too.
-
How was it?
- Well I did a casting with Anna Wintour for a Vogue editorial. She has this huge office and like 5 assistants preparing you and saying "please don't be nervous!", because after The Devil Wears Prada all the models get terrified when they met her, "act normal!". So I did the casting, she didn't asked about work, she asked about where I came from, my family, etc. 3 days after, I got a call from my agency saying I had been chosen to make a cameo on Tom Ford's movie. I was like "what, a movie? I never did a movie before", so they said that Tom had this reference from a 60's model named Anne [Boyd, I assume] and Anna told him that I looked a lot like her, so that's how he picked me.
-
How long was the shooting?
- It was 3 days, in L.A.
-
3 days of shooting?
- Yes, 3 days of shooting. Especially that scene with the cigarette, we had to do it many times and changing the cigarette, Tom was very meticulous. But it was an incredible experience.
