I was going to buy that because Querelle is inside so I'm even happier to know that she is on the cover!

All Eyes On Iris

By Rosie ⋅ March 18, 2008 ⋅ Email this post ⋅ Post a comment

Returning home to Salzburg, Austria to spend a few days relaxing with her mother after a hectic show season (and a shoot with Mario Testino), lovely Iris Strubegger took the time to answer some quick questions and share her personal pictures from backstage with us.

Q&A

If you weren’t modeling you would be… in China with my boyfriend.
What are you passionate about? I am passionate about beautiful things. I love art and I love it to be creative. I love beautiful and special pictures or drawings, even movies and songs.
What are your hobbies/interests? I like mountain biking, jogging or skiing in winter. I really prefer outdoor sports rather than working out in a gym. And I also love taking pictures or drawing, to be creative somehow.
How did you start modeling? I got scouted on the street in New York when I was there for student exchange, and, as I was not from there, they advised me to go to Place Models in Germany - the best advice!

Do you have any favourite designers? No, there are so many great designers out there that I could never decide and name only a few!
What is your best quality? I think my best quality is that I try to stay the way I am.
What are you listening to at the moment? Living Darfur from Mattafix.
Where is your favourite holiday destination? Croatia.
Who or what has influenced you the most in your life? My boyfriend and, of course, modelling.
What piece of advice would you give to aspiring models? Always respect people and be nice because you never know who you are going to work with next.
Do you have a special beauty/fitness routine you follow? It’s hard to follow routines when you never know where you are the next day. When I’m at home I eat healthy, warm meals for lunch and do outdoor sports every day. I try to do the same when I’m traveling for work, but it’s not always possible.
Which famous person would you like to meet? Ellen Pompeo and Karl Lagerfeld.
What languages can you speak? Only English and of course my mother language German. I would love to speak French which is really important for fashion.
Are you still studying? No, I finished school last spring. I want to go to university later.
What do your friends think about your modeling career? They think it’s great that one of their friends is a model but they also understand that it’s not the funny and easy job everybody thinks it is.
Do you collect anything? If so, what? Beautiful pictures.
Last book you read? Third part of The Golden Compass.
Best dish you can cook? “Schwammerlgulasch”, it’s an Austrian dish with mushrooms, dumplings and some kind of tomato sauce.
Favourite all-time model? Heidi Klum.
What are you thinking on the catwalk? Most of the time I don’t think anything because everything goes so fast!
Best modeling experience so far? I am so happy and grateful of my successful first fashion week season!
What does family think of you traveling so far away? Of course they miss me a lot. But they also support me all the time which is very important to me. When I’m not successful as a model I know that I can always return home.
Most played song on your iPod? Living Darfur from Mattafix
Many thanks to Iris and Yannis of Place Models for the interview!

FW0809 Campaign News from supermodels.nl:
"Iris Strubegger
- D&G - Ph: Mario Testino"

 

[tocceve]

D&G is okay I guess it could be bigger
but I'm glad she has at least one campaign

 

[Common_1031]

Yay!!

 

[youarearockstar]

Look, I don't particularly care for the D&G campaigns, and the last one was a disaster. Usually they involve just a collection of girls (and shirtless boys) jumping, moving, running, and/or dancing, with something mirrored in the background. Still, it's a fairly substantial campaign to land after your first season of work. I for one am very happy for Iris!

 

[kriszti.md]

^I agree, even though I hate the whole image of D&G

 

[indie]

Me too
So is it only girl or is she part of group?

Awesome casting!

 

[|PerfectTonight|]

Love Iris, mostly because she reminds me of Madeleine Blomberg and even Marta Berzkalna a bit.

 

[leggy_e11e]

^Yes, she is sort of like a mix of the two ... but I like her better than both.
