You remember your first casting? What you felt, what they thought?
Everything happened so quickly. I did test taken two months. Then he got on casting assistant Steven Meisel, then - directly to Steven Meisel. I was frightened child, did not understand how and what is happening. I came - was smiling, I was asked something, I have something to answer. When I first worked with him, it was shooting for
Dolce & Gabbana. Everything went well.
Meisel discovered you as a model. You maintain a relationship with him, call up?
Yes, but only on professional matters. He - one of my favorite photographers. Meisel always knows what he wants to shoot he always says that he would like to see in the result. He did a lot to me, thanks to him I began to work.
Which shot do you consider your greatest achievement?
My favorite picture - this is my first cover of Italian Vogue. I think it is their accomplishment.
In 2007, French Vogue, you were in the form of Anna Wintour. Tell me, seriously whether you was given this shot?
In fact, it was given to me, it was insanely easy and interesting. When this came out shooting, I was struck a lot of questions and attention. It was very nice to stay in the image of Anna Wintour, because I have great respect for her. I think she is very talented woman, having achieved very much. By strong men. I am very impressed with its image.
You are not afraid of her reaction to the photo session?
Certainly, there was worry, but everything went well. All turned out very nicely.
I know that you are very much like to be face of Chanel.
Not that I wanted to become the face of Chanel, rather, I really wanted to work with Karl Lagerfeld. It was my good fortune to see him at all. I am a child of him looking transfer, and it pleases me very much. I worked with him many times: I did kutyurnuyu collection of Chanel, a lot of hits. I think it is the most talented person in the world. He manages to so many things at once: doing a lot of collections, and paints, and shoots.
Which shows do you most like to do? I know that you love Balmain!
Yes, I really like. Each show - beautiful. Beautiful hair, beautiful makeup, beautiful light - you come out and you feel like a queen.
Did you feel when you first came to the podium?
First, I felt, so as not to fall. As always. Music, people, light - it was all very interesting, but emotions are hard to convey in words. Somehow a bit unreal.
Do you have a favorite supermodel?
Yes, I really like Kate Moss. And Daria Werbowy, Linda Evangelista, Sasha Pivovarova. I like many.
When you are involved in screening Andre Tan, it was in dealing with him as a designer or a tribute to his native country?
Not so, and not another. It just happened. At that moment I was free, I was invited, and everything turned itself. He is one of the best designers in the Ukraine.
You are often withdrawn for Ukrainian magazines?
No, not often. When I first started, and returned, it was a shooting for Elle. Now I spend a lot of time abroad.
You prefer to be removed for a more avant-garde magazines, or still for Vogue?
If you enter into the image, then you are interested in any job. Never mind that it is: Dazed and Vogue.
In what city you live now?
In New York and Kiev. I often come here. Here's my mom and little brother, and socializing with my mom for me very important. In New York it's hard one.
Here smaller museums, bars, places where you can go.
I rarely have somewhere to go. For me it is important to communicate with my mom. When I am in New York, I call her 10 times a day. Whatever happens, I must discuss it with her.
It is the closest person to you? I once saw her with you at the show Andre Tan. This young mom! She must have supported your desire to become a model?
She supported me in any endeavor. Who would not want to be, she still would have supported me. It gives me confidence in myself, always says: "Do not worry! Everything happens. " She supports me very much, and I appreciate very much.
There are four capitals of fashion. Style of the city closest to yours?
Style New York: I think that everything is so simple! What would you have any left, none of you not paying attention. Clothes are very comfortable. I - for comfort. It is important freedom.
As you can see the development of his career in the future?
I try to live for today. Nothing was gained and nothing is planned.
Have you ever thought of becoming an actress?
Of course, I want to develop. How am I going to do it, I just can not tell you. Maybe going to a lawyer or psychologist, or an actress. I do not know exactly, but I hope that I can fulfill your potential, to achieve some success and respect. And I will fall asleep and wake up with respect to itself.
Joan Collins would be proud.
