"Tamy, the scout of Hype, discovered me in the Cosquin Rock 09. At that time I was totally with other plans for my life, normal everyday girl who finished high school, had started college, was a secretary at the Ministry of Human Rights of Córdoba. Perhaps it would have finished in politics. Groom, dogs, friends, family. I was comfortable, so to speak. Hype got tired of calling me and I would not pay attention, I thought: 'What I saw? It's not for me! " Until one day a friend who is a photographer convinced me to take some pictures with him and ends up sending them to Tamy. Urgently they called me. Emiliano, my manager, from Paris called me and said: When you come to Argentina I want to see it or yes. I do not know what you waited all this time ... you were losing money! " And finally I went to the agency. I met them, I took pictures, an input video and sent them to New York. Within a month they called me, I was urgently needed there. I arrived and everything started to be like ... too fast!
A week after signing the contract, the agency came to me and say, 'tonight, shooting for Vogue Italia, haute couture with Steven Klein, Lindsay Lohan canceled, he wants you. " I was ... shocked! The first shooting of my life. I would say I was scared, until, well, I tried a dress, I felt unique. And in the middle of the night when it was my turn for the shots, there were plenty of photographers, Klein taking pictures of yourself! I returned to the trailer, Steven enters and says: "Dafne, I want to introduce my friend." A normal woman at first sight greets me with two kisses and started to look good, I'm wondering: is it or not? Then I see behind her a huge large retinue man in a suit and say to myself: IT'S! Madonna! There, she starts talking about my face with Steven, he told me he wanted to get my hair to some shots and she says: No, you need a more glamorous look! " Both touching my hair! First shoot, first anecdote. And it changed my life completely. I have no structures, ie. I never know where I go, at least when I'll return.
Givenchy. My second big surprise since coming to NY. Doing that show was wonderful, and even more wonderful for me was seeing while I did the fittings throughout the week following the show, all the work that leads. All the people behind each piece, people who do not sleep sewing and sewing to get to the show and that all this excellent collection. No way to know Riccardo Tisci, the designer. Working with him all week for many hours. And that tells me: 'Do not be nervous even if he is your first show. Going to get everything right. " Recently, he dressed me for the anniversary party for 90 anniversary of Vogue Paris. I went to try on the dress a few days before the party and it was amazing and very exciting when I entered and saw some billboards of my last Givenchy campaign on the wall. Tisci asked me: 'Do you like' That's satisfaction.
And my first free afternoon in Paris? I loved that city. Makes sigh. Obviously I ran to the Tour Eiffel, which is practically in front of Givenchy! "
