Are you ever hesitant about your children being models for this type of hard work?
I am aware of the pitfalls and feel I can help them navigate. My husband doesn't want Kaia growing up too quickly. She is 16, I tell you. He wants her to be 7 years old and stay there. It's difficult for dads to allow their daughters to grow up.
What I gained from modeling -- even though I came from a small town -- was the chance to travel the world, meet people from all different countries, learn different Audemars Piguet Replica Watches
languages and work alongside these talented and inspiring people like photographers and designers. It's an excellent form of education. You also learn marketing and business. My kids learn about modeling by paying attention. There is so much you can learn. Do not just look at your phone while you get your hair and make-up done. Talk to people, listen.

Are you adamant that the fashion system in the 90s was more successful than it is today? How has social media changed this?
It has been changed by social media. It's the only thing that has changed. Yesterday I was photographing a shoot for a magazine. In some ways, it has not changed. You get your hair and make-up done by a professional, and someone will give you gorgeous clothes. That is what my children had. This other platform is also a bit too pressure. It's there. It isn't going anywhere. It's a team effort that requires everyone to participate. It's easier for younger children because they don't know what it's like. It's second-nature for them. It's almost like a full-time job. It's like having a pet who Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Replica
is hungry and you have to feed them all the time. It's a faster build, which I believe means less downtime. It's also much quicker for my daughter. Although I could have a magazine cover or show, it would take me one month to get someone to like me. Now, it's like, everywhere. It's almost like the Versace show that I did. It took over Instagram. It was insane for two days. They were intelligent. It was smart. It's almost like traditional advertising is being replaced by new media. We're all trying our best to understand how to use this new media effectively.
