You’re popularly known to be discovered on the streets of Frankfurt Germany in 2011, was it all just a coincidence? How did your modelling career start?

Yes, a model agent saw me in Frankfurt and a few weeks later I was in Paris at the Fashion Week. It was an incredible feeling to walk my first show for Thierry Mugler.

You have walked various established runways like Paris Fashion Week, Milan, New York for various luxury brands. Any favourite runway memory?

My favourite runway moment was my first show in 2011 for Thierry Mugler because backstage I could see Lady Gaga, Usher & Kanye West present there and it was a huge moment for me.

You have a massive following on your Instagram account, how do you decide on endorsing any brand/product on your platform?

To be honest it is really important that the brand matches to me. I always want to be authentic.

Did you ever plan to become a model at first?

No I never thought that I could work as a model. I wanted to become a soccer player but when I saw that I couldn’t do that. I wanted to work as a police officer. And then later on street to the runway happened!
