I'd be really surprised if she were only 5'10 with heels. I'm so jealous you saw her in person, though! How tall are you?

I'm short...5'4". She was obviously taller than me but she seemed to be about the same height as other models I've seen/met when they were wearing sneakers only Natasha had on heels. My perception could be off but I walked right by her.

Do you live in New York fullfrontal?

Yes, I live in New York.

Translating Natasha Poly's profile in French Vogue:

Who said that Classic couldn't be rock 'n roll? The top Russian plays all the style/fashion categories, starts her little revolution and makes her own look fresh, highly recommended.

A young girl: Natasha Poly was born in Perm, a little village near L'Oural, not far from Siberia. At 15, she won a model competition, but preferred to finish school first. At 17, serious things then began: for her first season, she was linked to the Milan and Paris catwalks, the Alberta Ferretti campaign and the cover of Vogue Paris. Her career had taken off. Today, she is 21 and living in New York. She models and walks for elite fashion and her face is an oxymoron: the intensity of her contours carry an unexpected softness.

THe other paragraphs are coming soon

hmm..im not sure why it's extended into one long line!!

Anyway, here's some more:

One style: Tall, beautiful and refined/pure?, we say to simplify everything she is. Her age allows variability (not sure about this line). Therefore she mixes a lot of very chic things (on the condition that they are comfortable), which she always manages to make a little bit trashy. The composition of her wardrobe: a vintage base seasoned with Miu Miu, Marc Jacobs and some young designers like Atsuro Tayama. Nothing must be new or affected? And the classic style (which she appreciates) is systematically strayed away from.
​

As a rule: "When I go shopping, I leave the bag lying about for a few days so it is quite crumpled" (not sure what this is about haha)

By day: Jeans (Diesel or Nobody) or mid-thigh shorts on top of black leggings, a vintage T-shirt and a little leather jacket. THere again, she points out that: "Nothing must be made new" <---i'm sure i'm translating this line wrong
By night: "I am a follower of the dress-and-high-heels combination.

...to be cont'd

Profile cont'd:

Obsessions of the season: The python boots at Chanel, and in particular the silk scarf from McQueen which she uses compulsively, "Just because it makes beautiful things cool". THen somethign about her zero conduct? expecially when she mixes it (the scarf) with the ultra-clean cut of her Dell'Acqua jacket.
Definite valuables: Her dresses, often vintage, which she chooses light, long and flowing. She likes comfortable materials like cotton, and likes neither velour nor shiny silks. What she rejects: models who are too dead-beat

Shopping: "What I like, is to discover an unknown boutique/shop where I find something unique"

..to be cont'd

Thanks angie

By the way, here are bigger versions of the Natasha profile

They were saved from posts earlier in this thread.

ANywya back to teh translation!
A collection (religious context) of some sort. Besides boutiques in New York, she browses vintage shops (Flying A or Resurrection, Camden Market in London), takes long walks in Soho and loves Miu Miu for their shoes. "I pay a lot of attention to detail. I want them to be perfect."

Jewellery: "Yes, a condition is that they have significance, a history, a sentimental value". THe sense is essential. She only wears two chains with two lucky charm pendants, a small diamond from her fiance (?!?! is she engaged already??? ), and the tooth of a wolf, which she also keeps around her neck...

Hmm..dunno why teh pics didnt load...wait...I jsut tried again but it says its too big to load

 

[angie]

No probs manette...but i know there are several errors hehe...if anyone is fluent and can get their hands on a bigger version, please correct the mistakes!

ok..continuing:
An error/mistake (she wore? A pink and mauve Versace dress which was too figure-hugging and too tacky haha

Taboo: "Black eyes (heavy lined eyes i presume) and too much makeup. That's fake"
Shoes: "At the moment I like black suede, and brown braided/plaited leather"
Miu Miu platforms, tall Michael Kors sandals, Marc Jacobs pumps,...And for this Autumn are Indian mocassins by Ash?, flat boots at Costume National and the little booties at Narciso Rodriguez

 

[angie]

Bags: She likes things that are small, unique, with maximum strangeness?, suspended by a long chain which she can carry across her shoulder. A mini metal clutch---somethign or other about stones with medieval allure..sorry guys!..anyway she says her favourite rests with a tiny metal box from Chanel in which she can carry nothing, not even her mobile phone. "It's more an accessory than anythign else, but I jsut can't get over/past it."

Hair: "A true maniac!" She confesses to using everything: Keratase masques, L'Oreal creme for the ends, Bumble & Bumble spray, Phyto oil...Loose or in a ponytail, she always opts for the 'undone' look.
