Measured by the fitter at Cortile Milano the same week the digitals were taken. Nothing here is rounded down.
See the digitalsThe short version
Where I came from, what I am good at, and every city that has stamped the page.
I was scouted at a swimming pool in Split at seventeen and told to finish school first, which is the only piece of industry advice I have ever been glad to take.
Six years later I work five markets on a rotation set in January and rewritten every month. Milan is home: a fourth-floor flat in Porta Venezia, a bicycle, and a fitter at Cortile who has known my shoulders longer than I have. Paris is show season and the long train back. New York is campaigns and a suitcase that never fully unpacks.
What designers book me for is the walk. It is slow, it is very still above the waist, and it took two years of a teacher in Zagreb telling me to stop performing. What clients keep me for is duller and more useful: I turn up knowing the collection, I do not complain in a fitting, and I write every note down so the second sample comes back right.
I swim in open water in every market that has any. That is the whole personality, and it is the reason I am never ill in February.

Types and lead times
What a day looks like, how much notice it takes, and what it usually runs to.
Runway
Fittings, rehearsal and the show itself, plus any presentation the day before it. I read the running order and I hold my mark.
Editorial
Magazine stories, one to twelve pages, with the credit and the usage agreed before the call time.
Campaign
Advertising with named usage, territory and term. Options held through the agency only, never direct.
Showroom and fit
Sales appointments and fittings, including the sample corrections written up the same evening and sent to your pattern cutter.
E-commerce
Studio days on white, high volume, with a fixed shot count agreed in advance so nobody is guessing at seven in the evening.
The record
Everything confirmed and datable, filed by kind, with the year against each line.

What the people who booked me say
Each one filed against the job it came off, so you can see what they are talking about.
Fall/Winter show, Milan
She learned the exit in one rehearsal and then held it for eleven looks without a single note from me. That is rarer than it sounds.
Anna Prati Casting, RavelloSix Coats, Paris
Twelve hours in a cold studio and the last frame is the one we printed. She does not fade, and she reads the light without being told where it is.
Julien Marchal PhotographerPre-fall fitting, Paris
Our pattern cutter still works off the notes she wrote in the fitting. She told us the shoulder was two centimeters wrong and she was right.
Neve Callan Studio director, BastionWinter campaign, Milan
The client picked her from four options and never asked to see the others again. She turned up knowing the collection better than half the crew.
Tomas Ferrer Art director, Vesper AtelierPlace an option
Tell me the client, the city and the dates. Everything else is settled by the agency.
The option is logged. The agency will confirm within a working day.
The option is held
Your dates go on hold for 48 hours while Zagreb checks the rest of the schedule and the travel.
Terms come back
You get the usage, the territory and the term written out, in US dollars, with the travel and the fitting days costed separately.
First option confirms
Whoever holds the first option decides. If that is not you, the agency tells you the same day rather than leaving it open.
Usual reply Under 4 hours
