Imaan Hammam presents our NEW summer range
How old were you when you started modelling?
I was around 14 years old, I was scouted at a train station!
If you hadn’t chosen a career as a model, what do you think you’d be doing?
I think I would’ve been in fashion! I’m obsessed with clothing, both designing and styling.
You’ve had an amazing career already, but what do you still want to tick off your bucket list?
An Italian Vogue cover!
We LOVE what do you do on social media, who’s your favourite to follow?
I love @voguemagazine.
Which city are you living in at the moment?
At the moment I live in New York City, I love it here but sometimes I do miss my family who are back in Amsterdam.
What’s your favourite thing about living there?
I have a lot of friends here and it’s an amazing place to be!
Do you have any siblings?
YES! 6 of us in total, BIG FAMILY!
What’s the craziest thing you’ve had to do on a shoot?
The craziest thing I think is when I had to shoot with dogs… Not one, but 6 dogs and I’m super scared of them!
Stilettos or sneakers?
SNEAKERS!
How had being a model changed the way you dress? Are you more conscious of labels and trends now?
I’ve always loved fashion and trends and I think the work I do only makes it better. I get to see the newest collections and trends all the time!
Your body in insaaaane, what’s your fave thing to do to stay in shape?
I love doing ballet and any type of dancing! I’ve just started doing it – it gives me a good feeling and it’s pretty intense too.
What’s your favourite way to wind down after a long day of shooting?
Take a loooong bath! And watch my favourite TV series…
If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
PIZZA!!!
