Quoted
-
“Knowing there are people like Edward Enninful or Pat McGrath behind the scenes has helped to give me confidence when I work.”
—i-D magazine -
“Within three months everything happened: visa, agency, Chanel, Meisel and meeting girls like the ones here today. If you'd been interviewing me last year we would hardly have been able to communicate, my English was so bad.”
—i-D magazine -
“The idea was so crazy, because I wanted to be a lawyer as a little girl and was studying communications.”
—i-D magazine -
“Now working for important people! Steven Meisel, Oscar de la Renta. Yes!”
—Vogue
