In fashion, there is a saying that just because you are able to put a print on a bought American Apparel T-shirt, does not make you a designer. The same can be said in the world of DJs, where with the advent of the “DJ stars” gimmick, has taken over from clear raw talent. Jojo [...]

KA -— What is the thing you like the most about modeling? IP — My favorite aspect about modeling has to be the different characters that I project. When I step out on the set, it has nothing to do with ‘me’ anymore. It is about becoming this other woman with her own story. I love taking on different roles and switching my mind-set. This to me, is very fascinating. KA — What is the biggest change that has occurred in your life, and how are you different today? IP — I try to always live my life in the present moment. Every day there are different obstacles. You are constantly faced with changes in your life that you have no control over. You must adjust to these changes, you simply have to adapt to them and accept them. I have overcome many problems that made me who I am today. Many times, I’m faced with negativity, but I don’t let it get the best of me because there is always a lesson that is learnt which allows me to make smarter choices in the future. KA — If you had to choose between modeling and acting, what would it be? IP — I would do both. They are both very much alike yet different at the same time. In modeling, you are a silent beauty talking with your eyes and your body language… People are always left wondering who this woman really is. In acting, your character is scripted and you evolve on that… People warm up to that person portrayed or not. At the end of the day, both require you to step into a certain character that is not yourself. KA — As models are so visible these days and girls are being introduced to this industry at such a young age, modeling has now become a dream to so many….What do you feel your role is in all this going forward? IP — I think the most important thing is to be real and be who you are. Be composed and mysterious. I want to have a positive influence on people’s lives and inspire them to be their best. KA — What is your favorite thing to do in your spare time? IP — Dream. KA — Who is Ifigenia? IP — Not sure,… Who is she? Model –– Ifigenia Papadimitriou Clothing –– Kevin Allwood Photography –– Kevin Allwood Hair and Makeup –– KA Stylist –– Ashley King Shoes –– Christian Louboutin Location –– St-Paul Hotel
