Quotes

“In 2003, I changed; I was stronger and I was more sure of myself. I wanted to work again, above all to finance my art studies. I called IMG and returned to New York. Three days later, I did Marc Jacobs' fashion show and a week later I worked for Steven Meisel for Prada.”

“I’m 22. I feel like I’m 45 sometimes.”

"I know it's a cliché, but you've got to be yourself. The minute you lose your morals and lose a bit of your soul, it'll take you in like that."

Q: What kind of beer did you drink in high school?
A: Molson. But sailing was huge for me, and every sailor drinks rum, so I drank Mount Gay rum, which I can't drink anymore because I puked too many times. [laughs]So...Lancome!

"I don't think I'll ever get used to this. I would rather be on the other side of the camera."

"There are mirrors at shoots, mirrors backstage at the shows, and a mirror just before you walk on the runway. It's too much. The first time I ever cried on-set was when I was surrounded by mirrors for six hours. It was torture. I don't think anyone could endure that."
