Where are you currently spending your time and who are you spending it with?
I am in my apartment in the north of Paris in the 18e with my dog and two cats

How did your job as a model change during quarantine and how did you adapt?
I did a self-portrait story with a remote, tried to build an e-comm studio, I did a few videos for castings and I did this FaceTime shoot with Yuji Watanabe. Let’s be honest, I can’t wait to be back on set!!!!!

How will your life be different after self-isolation?
I will definitely remember that it’s totally possible to feel close to my friends abroad through video chat and technology. I will do more sports, I will probably do more charity work since I got in contact with a local association created to help homeless people during quarantine (most of usual food distribution systems stopped). Most of all, I will feel even more blessed and lucky to be in good health, and honestly, to have enough money to survive the economical crises coming up, it’s gonna be terrible for many people and we need to be a united mentality.

What have you discovered in quarantine that you recommend?
It might be only in France but I use a lot the platform Cinetek. It’s a large movie library organized by director’s name and director’s recommendations, from old must-see movies to more recent productions. Actually I mostly recommend trying drawing, painting, molding, sewing, gardening, cooking… all kinds of crafted works! Close the computer and use your hands! It’s so fulfilling! I personally did lots of cooking, drawings with oil pastels and I’ve been molding a big woman body with paper and glue that I turned into a giant lamp!

What do you hope for in the future?
Less hypocrisy, less consumption, better quality, simplicity… I hope there will be a ‘healthy’ and smart buying mentality spreading in every social class. Same with plane travel, we need to stop to travel that much, the upper class doesn’t even enjoy it anymore, it’s too easy, too fast. I totally love traveling for jobs but I’m feeling guilty to participate in this industry that flies people so easily. The fashion industry is too global, and it would be totally possible to make it more local.
