-The girls can be sweet, but they can also be completely annoying. Then I think about how it"s only temporary and that I"m soon going home again.
We pay for all our expenses ourselves, so should I choose to ride in a limo, stay at expensive hotels, drink champagne and eat caviar I"ll have to pay for it myself, Maria says and thereby challenges the myth of the glamorous model life. -Modeling is hard work.
The clients can pick and choose from numerous models, and to get jobsyou go from casting to casting.
Up to 14 on the same day. - I Milan I went to a casting for the Giorgio Armani show. lieutenant starts at 7 in the morning.
I was there half an hour early, and there were already 200 girls in line waiting.
The actual casting takes less than two minutes. Everyone gets the same shirt on and we walk for them, but you"re a bit stiff when you"ve been waiting for hours, she says.
