3)Do you think your a true representation of a today's woman if yes/no why?
What is today's woman haha?!! I guess I am educated, independent and ambitious, which is
what today's women pride themselves in! Self-determination and being in control of our own
destiny!
GTM Models is one years old this month so happy birthday GTM Models! I started it whilst I
4)Tell us all about GTM Models and how you started till this date?
GTM Models is one years old this month so happy birthday GTM Models! I started it whilst I
still had a full-time job and I was volunteering my spare time for the charity so it was tough! I
went full-time with it last August and its gone from strength to strength!
Someone who listens and is good at taking advice. A person who realises it's a business and
5)What makes a good model?
Someone who listens and is good at taking advice. A person who realises it's a business and
that there is a formula to developing into a strong model and that you have to be good-
looking and have certain measurements, but that it is also very important to be smart and
have a good team around you to help you go to the next level in our career!
6)What do you look for when scouting for fresh faces?
Most of our clients are in fashion, so height and a good body are important for GTM Models.
We also look for a hidden beauty, strength or quirkiness...someone who has that je ne c'est
quoi!
7)How can someone from the other side of the world learn more about your agency?
Hopefully if they Google GTM Models we will come up!

8)Describe your fashion sense?
I love comfort and simplicity. True fashion for me is following fashion, but wearing what you
love even if it's not in fashion. Being able to sometimes dislike what is in trend and being true
to your own taste can also be very fashionable! After all looking unique as well as in trend is
important! I try to stick to wearing what I truly love and leopard print and navy stripes will
always have a place in my wardrobe haha!
9)What are a few problems models face on a daily basis?
Competition is rife! There are some amazing looking models who are also in trend and
understand fashion and click with the clients or casting directors. It's important models
understand that they have to have the full package and not just be a pretty face or have a
'look' so that when they have the opportunity to go to castings they stand out and have better
10)When not working what do you enjoy doing?
I love hanging out with close friends and love eating out and believe it or not sight-seeing!
London is great for history and culture! Art galleries are also great hang outs.

11)If you were to walk the red carpet at an event which designer would you wear and why?
I think for me it would be Vintage Valentino or Oscar de la Renta. These designers for me
are from a different era; an era of real, unadulterated quality and glamour.
Definitely no carbs haha! Fish, vegetables...I would pop open the Champagne and spoil
12)If the fashion police was to have dinner at your home what would you prepare them?

them with some French patisserie for dessert!

13)Which 2 models do you think are the best runway walkers?
Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista.
14)What do you think of the fashion police news blog?
I think it is great! Very diverse which is important to remind people fashion is not only
exclusive but it should be relatable and real at times too.

20)What do you think of size 0 models on the runway?
is just too small and a woman clearly is not eating at that point. The very limit for me is a
21)Where do you see your agency in 10 years time?

22)There are so many agencies out there what makes you different from all the rest?

between the agency and models not a place of hostility.
Cleanse your skin regularly, don't show both cleavage and legs (only one or the other),
23)What are you 4 fashion tips that you live by?
Cleanse your skin regularly, don't show both cleavage and legs (only one or the other),
invest in a little black dress as you will always need one and don't over accessorise; it can
ruin an outfit.
Abandoning their parental responsibilities , not being gentlemanly (there's never a good
24)What are 4 things men do that makes you mad?
Abandoning their parental responsibilities , not being gentlemanly (there's never a good
excuse for this), not grooming themselves on the basis thy are men and treating women
25)Should models have to pay for pictures?
book and you can't get the testshoot then you should pay if your agency knows this will help
to market you. It's an investment and you can't expect a free ride all the way especially not at
the beginning! A good agency should source good testshoots though so most times models
won't pay! All our new faces get testshoots.
