NO she didnt.

Was my feeling too. And she's too young to have known Take2

I was mistaken Romana with another Romana Romana appeared today on Elite's website in London

It's impossible how she handles every single hairdo! Changing so much, though in the same time not loosing the mischievous vibe, only proportioning it properly and accommodating it to the mood of the photos

She's so cute and nice! Definitely one of my favs from this season!

]A small interview with Romana on Digital Diamonds Great to read that Alber Elbaz likes her, can't wait to see the result!

Where are you from and how did you start out?
I am from Slovakia. At the beginning I was approached by some agencies on the street a couple of times, then I started to think seriously about modeling. I decided to join Elite Prague.




Is it important for you to believe in yourself and not to compare to other models?
Yes, definitely. You never know, what exactly your client prefers.




How do you feel about people giving you compliments about your look & work?
I'ts alwasy nice to hear any compliments. It makes you feel like you have a chance among all of the other girls.




Favourite show so far?
Lanvin. it was the biggest show I have walked so far and the whole spirit of the show was awesome.




Tell us something about the Japanese industry.
I guess its much easier to book a job in Japan. You usually just need to look and act very cute.





How do you manage to stay cool on the runway?
It can be pretty scary, so usually, when I am on a stage I dont think very much about how many people are looking at me. I probably should think about every my moves and my especially expressions, but this could make me very nervous. I just put on my face number 8 and there is always a song on my mind. lol




Who taught you things like how to catwalk?
When I started, I had really big problems with catwalking. It was really challenging and I had to learn it very quickly. I definitely couldn't have learned it without the aid of my agencies.





First thing you did after getting home from fashion week in September?
I met my family and friends because I haven't seen them long time.





Do you think that a model can only be successful if she's backed by a top agency?
I cant really tell, it's very good for a model when she can work with experienced professionals, though.





What do you like better for the moment?[/B]
Shootings are great like when you are in a good mood with your photographer. However, there are some really demanding shootings, for instance when you do summer colection shootings on a cold winter day. Basically, I prefer shows; there is more action going on





Your last job?
It was a shooting in Paris for xxxxxxx (be prepared readers!!!!), I cant wait for the pictures. The shooting was very nice. We were three girls from the Lanvin cast wearing dresses and just standing still while Mr. Alber Elbaz was making some funny poses around us.





The best and worst experience you've made due to your job as a model yet?
I dont remember the bad ones, haha. But anyway.. every experience is in some way good.

[la.vie.in.mode]

she's flawless

 

[stefanelle]

She's surprisingly super-versatile model! I'm saying surprisingly, cause with the type of her look I'd never guess she would be.. Stupid me! The last polaroids are also completely flawless, love how the lightening is playing with her face. So clean, kind of innocent, though still not loosing the touch of mischievousness I always love in her

 

[Tinna]

She totally amazed me... She has an awesome look!

btw. I think this video wasn't posted before, Romana appears few time in the video
