Sasha Pivovarova

I dedicate this post to my friend Summer Mode, who loves Sasha Pivovarova!!

Sasha Pivovarova was born in Moscow, Russia, on 1986

She was a girl who never dreamed of becoming a model. But everything began after a friend and photographer, Igor Vishnyakov, took photos of her. He knew she had something special, so he then gave them to IMG and her career took off.

Two weeks later she opened for the Prada show in Milan

Within just one year of modeling, she had earned some of the highest accolades a model can accomplish namely by appearing on two Italian Vogue covers

She has consistently appeared in the most prestigious fashion magazines, including American Vogue, Italian Vogue, French Vogue, British Vogue, Japanese Vogue, Chinese Vogue, W, V Magazine, POP and Numéro Sasha has continuosly, from the beginning of her career, walked the runway for top designers, including Prada, Gucci, Chanel, Alexander McQueen, Christian Dior, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, Chloe, Valentino, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier, Miu Miu,Hermes, Kenzo, Victor & Rolf, Dolce & Gabanna, Balenciaga, Zac Pozen, Fendi and Yohji Yamamoto

[loved this editorial so much]
Sasha adds to her repertoire maintaining one of the longest running Prada exclusives, going on 6 seasons, a true muse for one of the most highly regarded names in fashion. She is also the face of Armani cosmetics

Through her modelling Sasha travels extensively which allows her to visit many museums, exhibitions and studios of artist friends.
She sketches all the time on any thing she can find (coffee, wine, charcoal, pencils, etc) and uses her free time to paint. Her work has been featured in French Vogue among other high caliber editorial magazines
Her beauty secrets are Chinese u loon tea and Shaolin Kung-fu,

as well as being a vegetarian and abstaining from alcohol
