 Russia is believed to be the place where the most beautiful
women come. And beautiful women are found in the model business. They appear at
the Fashion Week haute couture shows held in Milan, Paris, London and New York.
They enter into contracts with fashion houses and appear as cover girls in the
most prestigious magazines. Sasha Pivovarova is a model whose success is a real
story to deem. Russian models differ from other models in the way she looks and
the success story. When reading the stories of top models almost every other
tells her story of hard and exhausting youth to achieve her goals to be noted.
As for Russian top models, they entered the world of models accidentally, or so.
As for the models from Russia, they were common girls who never guessed of
becoming top models to the particular period of life.
The same happened to Aleksandra aka Sasha Pivovarova. She
was born on January 21, 1986
in Moscow and she was keen on painting as a teenager.
Her did enjoy what she was painting since she felt like doing it on the higher
level than daubing. It depends on the family which commits to hobbies of
children. Sasha’s mother supported the liking for painting and since early
times she took Sasha and her siblings to visit various museums and exhibitions.
At the age of six Sasha was taken to the school of art. After she graduated
from the elementary school she entered the art history faculty at the Russian
University for the Humanities. A young lady strongly intended to go for her art
education and become the real artist. In 2004 an artist-friend to Sahs made
several portrays of her and presented to New York IMG model agency employees.
Igor Vishnyakov, the American of Russian roots exclaimed he found a real mine
of gold. And that was true. In the consequence he married to Sasha. The events
developed then as in the true fairy tale. A girl who never rushed to model business and who was
never trained this business was invited to open the Prada Fashion Show at the
Milan Fashion Week in February 2005. Pivovarova then signed to a three-year
exclusive advertising contract with Prada! A tall slim girl of the unique looks
was noted and she was offered too much by fashion show facilitators and model
agencies. On the one part, Sasha has chameleon face and any stylist or designer
can do everything with it creating what they need. On the other hand, she has
too fashionable features of the alien look loved by stylists and visual ads
managers as high cheeks, big eyes, full lips and pale skin.
In the soonest time Sasha achieved the significant success
in collaboration with such reputed brands as Chanel, Kenzo, Louis Vuitton, Nina
Ricci, Chloe, Emmanuel Ungaro, Yohji Yamamoto, Gucci, Christian Dior, Calvin
Klein, Donna Karan and many others. Moreover, she became the face for Giorgio
Armani Beauty cosmetic line. The national editions of the Vogue in eager
rivalry publish pictures by Sasha Pivovarova and articles about her life and
achievements. In the beginning of 2009, Sasha Pivovarova took the second
position in the list of Top 50 Models Women, sharing the place with Natasha
Poly, another model from Russia. Vogue Paris stated she was one of the top 30
models of the 2000s.
The agencies she collaborated during her model career
include Unique Models in Denmark, IMG Models in New York City and Donna Models
in Tokyo.
As for her private life, we all know she is married to her
long-term frien Igor Vishnyakov, who opened her as a model. They married in
Thailand and remade the scene for a photo shoot in June 2009 American Vogue
with close relatives and friends, including models Jessica Stam and Irina
Kulikova. Currently she lives in Brooklyn, New York. Pivovarova said in her
interview for Teen Vogu that she always played with pencils rather than with dolls.
She never quit her longings and in her leisure time she keeps on drawing and
painting. She had her paintings displayed in a gallery in Paris, Mansion Grand
in New York. They were also published in French Vogue. As a real artist, Sasha
draws on everything as a canvas, whatever she has by her.
Pivovarova is currently collaborating with Miuccia Prada to publish
a book of her own paintings. The book will not be customary but as a scrapbook with
drawings, photography and collages to really seize attention. Be the way, she
is the author of pictures for Karl Lagerfeld book based on Russian fairy tales.
She is 26 now and she is full of enthusiasm to continue her
life full of wonderful events and activity. She says she stays healthy
and
looks attractive since she is trained kung fu and drinks oolong tea.
Everyone chooses the way to live and Sasha did not choose night clubs,
alcohol and drug abuse and parties as the permanent attributes of model
life.
Sasha realizes that she is at the edge of quitting her model
career. This is the specific and
logical completion of model business and she plans to build her life beyond the
runways. She also dreams of having a full family and she plans to have three
kids at least in the marriage with her husband.
