She isn’t just a fashion model but an accomplished equestrian too. Hannah Widmer, an Aquarian, who loves to be surrounded by beautiful horses, believes in riding high on life and striving towards making a better version of herself, with every passing day. Here’re excerpts from our exclusive interview.
How do you define your sense of fashion and styling?
If I have to put it in words it would be simply classic and minimalistic! That’s what I think my fashion and styling is all about.
Besides being a known name in the modelling world, you’re an equestrian too. How did that happen?
To be candid, being an equestrian has given me a purpose in life. It has really helped me get more focused on the real goals in life. In fact, a friend of mine introduced me to American Saddlebred, a horse breed from the United States and it was since then I could not stop picturing myself as a horse rider. Lately, I also bought a horse with the help of my friend and that’s how I started my journey as an equestrian.
What is more satisfying for you – being on horseback or in front of the camera?
I could never choose between the two. I think I need both of them in my life to keep me satisfied! I do feel very confident and happy doing either of these – riding a horse or posing in front of a camera.
Describe yourself in three words.
Independent, confident and minimalistic are some of the traits that I think literally define me. I believe in simple living and high thinking. And yes, I am ever-ready to face life and its daily challenges with loads of confidence!

Being a successful woman, what are your biggest achievements to date?
I think my journey is full of beautiful accomplishments! I graduated in Art Therapy/Studio Art, and still currently continuing with my studies, something that I love. I am an accomplished equestrian who gets to show some of the most beautiful horses in the world. My modeling career has grown leaps and bounds, and must confess this – being on the L’Officiel cover was always one of my many dreams that I wanted to fulfill! Really no words to put across how I feel about seeing my dream turning into reality!
Looking at you looks like you won’t settle for less. So, where do you see yourself in the next few years?
Happiness is most important to me, in whatever I’m doing. My dream has always been to have a career as a successful model, a successful equestrian, and besides that, I’d love to be with my life partner. Also, as good health means a lot to me, I am always working for it. And that’s not all! I am always working towards the best possible version of myself. I am on my way to present my best version in the times to come. Just wait and watch!
Please share about your fitness regime.
I prefer to begin my mornings by hitting the road, as I am an avid bike rider. Besides, I try to spend some time every day doing yoga, stair climbing, skiing, or any sort of sports. I do not have a fixed workout routine but being involved in such physical activities keeps me hale and hearty!
