[on her first time on the modeling catwalk] Yes, I can't forget it, it was horrible. It was held at Centergross in Bologna, a place where fashion brands have their own showrooms and I was among the girls who paraded to present the collection to the Buyers. The floor was sprinkled with sand and we walked barefoot. I well remember the embarrassment I felt in the absence of heels, I felt that my body was exposed to reality, deprived of the typical posture of those who wear high heels.
