Snejana is sooo cool and beautiful too.Thanks for the video and the article.Unfortunetaly I can´t understand Polnish,but I think it doesn´t tell something special about her,just the shows she has done and so on...

^^ Is there a translation anwhere?

Adorable at KL.

 

[kuba01]

I'll translate. Give me 5 minutes or so and I'll translate the whole article

 

[sethii]

^^ go to www.poltran.com and copy the text into there, it doesn't give a highly readable translation but I think it says -

• in the future she wants to finish her education, and learn and teach foreign languages
• she was discovered when she was 15 years old, on the street in kiev, by a foreign model scout.

^ thanks!

 

[Hotaru]

Thank you so much.
I can imagine Snejana as a strict teacher.

Actually, she just wants to learn languages. Not teach them.

ps. Im having trouble translating the first part - it talks about a legend assosiated with her beauty (?). Its confusing. Give me a few more minutes!!

In some other interview she told that she want to be a laguage teacher.

Her international career started from the Prada ad campaign in 2005. One year later and she was the most coveted (?) model in the world. Today, Snejana Onopka is called a "beauty with eternally tired eyes”.

Snejana Onopka started her modeling career as a 15-year old who was spotted on the streets of Kiev by an International scout. She appeard on the International arena in 2005 and immediately signed a Fall/Winter contract to advertise for the house of Prada. A year later, she was an icon of the most famous designers of the world: she opened shows for Dolce and Gabbana, Lagerfeld, Alexander McQueen and Fendi, amongst others. Her success was furthered with campaigns for the worlds biggest luxury houses, such as Calvin Klein, Chanel, D&G, Yves Saint Lauren, Gucci, Lanvin i Louis Vuitton. Within 2 years, the Ukrainian was also the face of Shiseido (Spring/Summer 2007), the perfume ad campaign for Gucci Eau De Parfum II and she also appeared on numerous famous magazine covers like Vogue, i-D and Numero.

Today Snejana Onopka is one of the most famous faces from Eastern Europe. Her beauty comes from her blueish eyes, her water-nymph features, blonde hair and very thin body – Snejana is one of the most thinnest models, and is becoming increasingly more criticized by oposers of anorexia. As visible from her lack of body weight, just like many of her fellow modeling colleagues, Onopka was not allowed to model in this years Madrid Fashion week. But for many of the specialists in the fashion world, the spectacular thinness of Snejana, is one of her greatest assets.

The Ukrainian currently works for known modeling agencies from New York (DNA Model Management), Paris (Viva) and Milan (Why Not). In the future Snejana plans to finish school, learn foreign languages and travel around the worlds most beautiful corners.

Im having trouble translating the first part. It says something about an Ukrainian legend that might have created Snejana's beauty and that one look at her and one accepts the nickname "a beauty with tired eyes"....

WHAT THE??!!

 

[sethii]

don't worry about the difficult part - you did a great job KARMA!

 

[Hotaru]

Thank you so much for translating.She´s really a beauty with tired eyes,but I like it.

 

[kuba01]

Thats okay guys!

at the tired eyes bit. I think its the Polish way of saying 'doe eyed' - you know? But directly it means tired eyed?!

 

[Hotaru]

I really think she´s a beauty and she´s one of my faves,but sometimes she looks so badly tired.

 

[naty]

yes sometimes she looks sad and tired I think that she has a pretty face .. she looks adorable
