Generally, in New York quite often you can find more or less famous people. I remember that six months ago, after casting in the studio, Terry Richardson, I and my young man went to lunch. At the entrance to the cafe, we met a Russian photographer Leo Efimova and Daniel Golovkin. Surprised, as all the same small world, we sat down, ordered a meal and then went into a cafe with a friend, Terry Richardson, it has just finished casting. We are at your desk pictures of each other, and my young man, without thinking twice, and asked Terry to capture four of us. That little taken aback, but agreed. So now we have a mini-survey of work by Terry Richardson!

During the casting interesting to see what they do while waiting for the model. The vast majority of hard digging in the phone, someone listens to the player, plays games on the iPad, many are reading books, chatting with each other. Just as in the ordinary queue. All stories about jealousy and broken heels - nonsense, I have never not been faced with this. Sometimes it may even miss some girl without a queue, because it strongly late, although sitting in the queue itself is not much time. In general, the model for the most part are very nice. My roommate woke me up early in the morning and asked for an umbrella: the street poured torrential rain. And wake up on the table, I found a note with gratitude - a trifle, but nice.

On one of the casting, I sat next to Kelly Mittendorf and decided to chat with her:

- How do you feel as a person Prada?

- Parliament, excited and scared.

- From now you expect a lot?

- Yes, I give a lot of casting.

- And you yourself come from?

- Phoenix, Arizona. Everybody is surprised and tells me: "Oh, you're talking without an accent preteen ," I replied, "Of course, I'm from America!"

- Yes, I would not say that you are like an American. Tell me how it happened with Prada, because you do not even participated in the show?

- Until now, no, I do not do the show. Now I started to learn to walk properly and other things. When I was 11 years old, I noticed in his native town, and when I turned 14, was sent to New York to find me a agency. Here's how it all happened by itself. I like catapulted into the business.

- After New York, you're going to Paris or Milan?

- I do not know to tell us - it all depends on how you work in New York, now this is important.

- You have a lot of casting?

- Today it was 9, but a few I missed. This is not so much, but this is the first time I have worn so in New York, the more I did the first time in this city.

Kelly was very smiling and friendly. If I were a casting director, I would bukirovala her everywhere, confident gait with such a strong preteen models stern face I was very impressed!

Fashion Week in New York, often practiced by paying for impressions, not in money, and clothing. It happens in different ways: you can give a monetary limit to which you can buy something, or simply be invited to come to the showroom of designer and choose a certain number of things. Okay, that on this cold day, I was fortunate to pick up things Thakoon last season: a warm jacket, which I chose, I was very warmed up!

At the end of the day, I was a little shooting for the Italian Vanity Fair. Just two pictures - cover internal blocks of the journal of fashion and style. On this day, the team removed the nine models. At each tried on one or two onions. The girls came on stage throughout the day, I was the last. Do stylists got everything ready: the clothes hanging on hangers, bags and accessories are on the table, shoes displayed in a row. They pick me bow, consult with a makeup artist on Meike, and with a master's hair - the hair. In make-up always with a huge box of cosmetics, brushes, sponges. Hair - it's a different story, they love to tease, to plait into tight knots, from the soul pouring paint, so I was pleasantly surprised when she just braided my spit and polish once sbryznula. Everything worked smoothly, and we succeeded in two hours. Very often, photos can be viewed immediately on a computer photographer, and, of course, very interested to see succeed, because it will eventually be published in only one.

The day went well and I even managed to run into a couple of shops, well then - home. I had to put up with my stay at the hated "Starbucks" because the Internet works in the apartment, but Skype - no. But there are pluses - for $ 4, which is much cheaper than in the Russian preteen pictures stores, you can drink the sweet milk and swill with delicious whipped cream - for their sake and I drink. So I whiled away the local evening.
