Starsign: My star sign is Libra
Hometown: I live in a small village on the countryside of the Netherlands. It is called Emmen.
Best thing about your hometown: My family is definitely the best part of my hometown. Two good friends of mine are living in Emmen as well. When I am together with them is does not matter where I am because then it is always fun!
How did get into modelling / where were you scouted: I was scouted by Cesar Perin in the great city of London. It happened just by accident. I was on a school trip to London to visit the city and to admire the street art. I was just walking into a small restaurant with a few classmates to order some food. When we walked out to sit on the terrace, suddenly I was approached by Cesar. He gave me his business card and asked me if had had ever thought of modelling. I cloud not understand him in the first place so a classmate helped me out. I was just surprised by his enthusiasm about me. A few minutes later he approached me again to ask me if I had some time for him to take some polaroid. First I was doubting a bit but then I said yes to the offer! That’s basically how the ball started rolling.
Worst job you ever had: My worst job I have had was definitely, newspaper boy.
Were you interested in fashion before you started modelling: When I was young I was not really interested in fashion, but since I was 15-years-old I became more and more attracted by fashion. I was really looking for ‘my style’.
What do you enjoy the most about modelling: I really enjoy all the traveling! Before the modelling I never really travelled and now I am traveling to so many places. It’s such an experience to see all those different places!
Which campaigns have you been in: You could see me now in the Dior Homme SS15 campaign! I am so happy with the campaign. It was an absolute pleasure to work with this team!
Any dream brands you’d like to model for: There are not specific brands I want to model for. Every brand has something unique what I like. So I hope I could work with them all.
Who are your favourite designers: Mmm, this is a hard one. There are so many good designers out there!
Fashion week survival tip: Eat when you can eat, sit when you can sit and sleep when you can sleep. Those are the best tips to survive, at least the work good for me!
Most loved possession in your wardrobe: I really love my dark blue trench coat. I was looking for a nice one for a long time and last I suddenly found it!
Most played tune on your iPod this month: Last month I listened Bruce Springsteen – the Ghost of Tom Joad (with Tom Morello) the most.
What’s the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done: The most spontaneous thing, I just got a smile on my face by thinking of it. Last summer I was just cycling around with my best friend. We were not talking really much because we ware enjoying the silence of this beautiful summer night. But one time we looked to each other and we know from each other what we were thinking. So we dropped our bikes took our clothes off and swim across the lake we cycled just by. One angry fisherman was yelling at us: “you chase all the fish away!” When we reached the other side, we ran quickly back to our bikes and cycled loudly laughing to home.
Reminds me of a friend.
