The blog is back!

2007-10-08T12:42:00.000-07:00

After a few months of silence, I am glad to announce that I want to write in my blog again. There are so many new things regarding Eugenia! But the most noticable change is her new hair-style! Unfortunately, Eugenia hasn't done any shows during SS08 fashion weeks but we have a lot of new eds instead! Here is the latest one plus a very nice interview (El Pais Semanal Moda magazine). Big thanx to stersita (TFS) for the scans and translation!

-What expectations did you have when you first started modelling?
-Being a model has always been my dream, so I was very happy to have this opportunity. When I went to Paris for the first time, I would have never thought I would end up working with such important designers and photographers. That made it even better...

-What has been the highest point in your career?
-When I did my first cover for Vogue Italia with Steven Meisel. And also my first Gucci campaign, also shot by him.

-What has been your best fashion moment?
-There hasn’t been a specific one. I have liked being the face of many different labels.What trend of this fall do you keep?I’m dying to wear a dress over some leggings.

-What piece of clothing can’t you wait to own?
-Anything by Marni. I can’t wait for the collection to get to the stores.

-Is there something you would never wear?
-No, I’m very versatile when it comes to clothing.

-People should be careful when wearing…
-Jewellery. Too many accessories or some inadequate ones can make you look untidy.

-What’s your favourite shop?
-Bonne Marche (38, Rue de Sèvres), In Paris.

-Who do you admire in this business?
-Models who have been successful during a long period of time, like Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington and Cindy Crawford.

-What designer should everybody know?
-No one should miss what Jean Paul Gaultier does. He’s my favourite creator.

-What’s on your iPod right now?
-At the moment, Rihanna and Amy Winehouse, but I have a very eclectic taste and listen to all kinds of music.

-A beauty tip?
-It’s typical, but it doesn’t stop from being true. Drink litres and litres of water.

We got much more stuff with Eugenia but the most exciting thing for me is that we finally finished with the site which we are going to open tommorow, on March, 11, 2007. It's not fully complete but we are going to add many new things and improve the site as often as we can.

Strike a pose

2007-01-04T11:20:00.000-08:00

Eres site was updated with new pix for ss07 season. Eugenia looks super hot, super gorgeous! But at the same time these ads are so stylish and tasteful. Eres definitely does a great job thess seasons. Look, VS, that's the way lingerie ads should look like!

thanx Taben for the pix

2007-01-02T03:51:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year and Merry Christmas, Volodinians! I want to wish you all the best for the 2007th, the year of a fiery red pig (according to Chinese calendar)! May all your wishes come true and happiness never leaves you!
Concerning Eugenia, I hope we will have much more pictures this year, more campaigns, covers and e(a)ds! The job on making a site is slowly but surely continueing. I won't have much time in January as I have exams at uni but I'll try to find some time to devote it to this blog and site.

Once again, Happy New Year everyone!

New project

2006-12-16T06:54:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone! I have some ideas concerning Eugenia. As we all know, Eugenia has a site volodina.co.nr but the gallery doesn't work for some months already and now I am not sure it will ever be back, but Eugenia needs her site at least because it's not fair that almost all top-models have some sites and she doesn't. So I thought it's an idea to make a new site for her. But I need your help, guys, I can't do everything myself and I would like you, Volodinians, to join and make it together for our favourite model. I would like to know what you think about it. Please, let me know.

New stuff

2006-12-14T08:45:00.000-08:00

Ok. Here is the newest pic with Eugenia from some unknown editorial. It was found by via_gra quite a long time ago and only yesterday it was posted on BZ. Personally I think it's a bit weird pic because Eugenia doesn't look like herself but it's beautiful of course. I love her eyes in it, they are so mesmeriaing, and stand out more than usual because if these very dark eyebrows and smoky make-up, and I also like the look of them, it's not an empty look of just a very beautiful girl, it's very thoughtful look and you can feel emotions that she shows in this shot. And what is interesting is that this pic really hypnotizes you, you want to look and look at her face and eyes and can't take your eyes off her. It even scares a bit.

Fantastic news

2006-12-11T12:26:00.000-08:00

It's been a long time since we have seen Eugenia as a covergirl. But it finally happened! She is on the cover of January issue of German Vogue and what's more, it's the 25th anniversary issue!!! I think it's really a special honour to be on the cover of anniversary issue of a magazine. So what do we see? The first thing that catch your eyes is the legs, her long lean legs and her fabulous body in Balmain dress, this time the focus is not on the head, it's on the pose, on the motion, on the feeling of movement.

And of course Eugenia has an editorial inside. Somebody said Eugenia doesn't look as beautiful as she usually does. I dare to disprove that. Yes, it's not a classic look on Eugenia, such an elegant and refined creature. Here you can see how versatile she is. Her face is not a stark face of a Greek goddess anymore, it's full of emotions and energy. Every single shot shows Eugenia from her artistic side. Yeah, she is wearing glamourous chick clothes but she is not afraid to smile and make faces, she puts a part of her soul in every picture. Her poses, her look and her whole face bring you range of emotions and feelings. It's definitely the step up for Eugenia.

I won't upload all the pix from editorial (there are 16 of them), just some of the best ones. Big thanx to helligirl for scanning.

Sexy's back

2006-12-07T05:24:00.000-08:00

We, Volodinians, were discussing the fact Eugenia is not active these days, we were coplaining and were really disappoted with it. But Daria and some other guys from TFS said that Eugenia would definitely surprise us in the future and I should say they were right. Jey47key proved it by posting new pix from Eres web-site. That means Eugenia got another season for this brand which is great for us as we get more pix of beautiful Eugenia in swimsuits and for Eres as they will never find a better choice for the campaign! And what is more interesting and exciting is that Eres changed its style and Eugenia appears in ads with bangs that definitely suit and refresh her look

Smoking HOT

2006-11-26T08:40:00.000-08:00

Smoking - NOT

Smoking HOT

Eugenia can have a cold look but she can be very sexy too. And the above pictures prove it. And these are pics from 2002 when she was only 18! As time went by Eugenia was becoming more matured, more faminine and more sexy. That's why photographers and fashion houses like to make pics of her in lingerie or even naked and use them for editorials and campaigns. Eres is not an exception, they use Eugeia's face and body for its campaign for several seasons already. Enjoy the latest pics from Christmas campaign!

Eugenia in love

2006-11-25T13:39:00.000-08:00

We don't know much about Eugenia's private life but there are some facts that we could get from interviews that she gave to fashion magazines. Here is even a pic of her and her boyfriend. It's from old Paris Vogue, so I am not 100% she is still with this guy, I can only guess. Here are some details that I found out about him, it was written in Kazan magazine called Linea.

- I heard you bf lives in Kazan?

- Yes, we are dating for 2 years and a half already. Some time he worked in the city's popular mens strip-tease show "Bionix". And later on he practised with the performance of dance in clubs. We met before New Year, on December 30 when I was invited to the corporative party where he performed. Our looks met and then we made an appointment in Moscow.

- Weren't you jealous? You spend much time abroad and he has such a specific profession...

- Here as in any other affair everything depends on a person. If he had some relationships believe me I'd know it. We are connected by love and mutual understanding. He works in show business as me and we both have not a long period...5 years more and I'll leave modelling. We look alike.

...There are also some speculations about if she is engaged but I guess she is not. That ring that others think of as a pre-wedding present is a simple ring that doesn't mean anything, maybe it's some kind of talisman for Zhenya and what's more, if she was engaged she would wear the ring on the right hand not on the left.

Eugenia vs Daria

2006-11-25T06:23:00.000-08:00

pix made by 1234

Eugenia or Daria? Both girls are fantastic models and unique beauties but personally I'd choose Eugenia you know why. I was thinking about why Eugenia hadn't become as big and famous as Daria nowadays or even bigger. And the first thought that came to my mind is that maybe because she is Russian, I don't mean that your nationality prevents you from becoming a big star but it certainly makes it more difficult. And time shows there are more English speaking girls among big top-models: Linda, Cindy, Shalome and nowadays Gemma and Daria just to name a few. The second reason may be personality. I know Eugenia is a smart girl but she seems to be kind of an introvert, she keeps her private life closed to other people, she doesn't have many interviews and she almost doesn't attend all these glamorous fashion parties, modelling is just a job that she tries to do her best and that she enjoys of course but it seems to be not the most important thing in her life. On the contrary, Daria has a shiny personality as I'd call it. She likes to talk and she is interested in so many different things and she likes to discuss them and it won't be hard to find numerous of her interviews. But she is also not a "super" kind of model, still more opened to people than Eugenia in my opinion. And what also adds 'for' Daria is that she has a more usual beauty (not in a bad way), I won't call her classic but she may be appealing to more people while Eugenia has a more exotic face with this prominent and quite big nose that some people dislike but which I personally adore.

However this situation may satisfy both girls. Daria gets more attention and much money while Eugenia is big too but may stay unrecognized and have more freedom in this sense.

Captivating beauty

2006-11-25T06:03:00.000-08:00

Eugenia never stops to amaze me. Her beauty is so mesmerizing and unforgetable, her eyes are so captivating and fierce. And the most important thing about her that I love is that she has this expensive appearance, this elegance and class that not so many models posess. Just look at these 2 pix, you'll see so much confidence and serenity and grace in her poses and looks. I adore her prominent beautiful nose which certainly adds elegance to her face.

2006-11-19T05:36:00.000-08:00

Now it's official Eugenia didn't take part in Victoria's secret show this year. We were all very disappointed with it and I may say I had a feeling tears were welling up but I could cheer up and today I don't feel sad about Eugenia's absence. Now I have very optimistic hopes we will definitely see her more in the future and maybe even she won't skip VS 2007 show.

And here is a pic that I really like. You may see Liya, Daria, Eugenia, Angela and Elise. They look like they are having fan, so smiling and happy. let's join them!

Angel without wings

2006-11-16T02:29:00.000-08:00

Bad and very dissapointing news...most likely Eugenia won't do Victoria's Secret show this year. At least we haven't seen her in any pix that are out yet. New girls like Hana, Stammy and Katja S are VS angels now but Eugenia seems to disappear tho I still have a hope she will be there, I just cross my fingers and hope and hope, that's all I can do. I have no idea why she is out...I really doubt it was her choice as we all know how much Eugenia loves doing Victoria's shows. But it'd better be her choice because if it's not I have no words to explain how mad I am about VS, I just can't understand what they want, she has everything to be a VS angel!!! They picked Hana, why oh why? I love her very much but she is definitely not a Victoria's Secret material while Eugenia has a whole pocket of necessary qualities for VS woman.

Hope dies the last, so let's not lose it!

Eugenia talks again

2006-11-04T08:21:00.000-08:00

To find a video of Eugenia talking is a big rarity. But when you do it, it's like a gift if you are a fan of cuz. And here is the newest present for all Volodinians (as we call ourselve). This is a video of Eugenia at the backstage for the last Houte Couture collectin of Elie Saab (fw06/07). I uploaded this video here, so that you all may watch it. I couldn't resist and also made some screen caps. As you may see Eugenia is a down-to-earth smiley girl and she also looks very young without this heavy make-up and glamorous entourage. How not to love her?

2006-11-04T07:34:00.000-08:00

Haven't posted here for a while. But now I think it's time to continue updating my blog.
I'll start with beautiful old backstage pix of my beloved Zhenya.

oh Eres

2006-08-02T04:16:00.000-07:00

This campaign truly deserves individual post. Eugenia was the star of Eres ads in fw2005, ss2006 and now fw2006, three times in a row! And I see why they choose her again and again. Do you? Only one look at this fantastic campaign and you realise that Eugenia is a true goddess. Her body, her pose, her face are smouldering hot. When she started she was a skinny runway model with nice slim body but now, five years later, she has a body of a woman not a girl, curvy still thin, with beutiful proportions. It's not surprising she is a Victoria's Secret's model. She has it all: gorgeous face, beautiful long legs and hair, and body to die for to become a VS icon along with Gisele and Karolina and the next supermodel of our time replacing Gisele. She deserves it!

New campaigns

2006-08-02T03:25:00.000-07:00

Haven't posted here for a while. I didn't have time and anything really interesting as well. Now I came with a bunch of new pics because Eugenia got another 2 campaigns. First of all it's Elie Tahari. Not a big name but ads look very nice and another top-model Missy Rayder did spring/summer campaign before Eugenia, so I think it's a worthy thing for her.I remember smb told it's Eugenia's last season. Common, she is doing at least 3 campaigns this season, including a valuable cosmetic contract with Biotherm for at least 2 seasons. Not a bad thing for a model thinking of retirement, don't ya think? I remember there was an interview with Zhenya and she said she wants to have a family, children, etc, but is planning to finish her modelling career in some years, in around 27 y.o. So we have enough time to enjoy Eugenia's jobs! Though it's never enough of Eugenia, I can't imagine fashion world without her, I'll miss her terribly! Don't go away, Zhenya!

Zhenya for couture

2006-07-11T10:14:00.000-07:00

It lasts only 3 days, designers show their creative ideas imbodied in haute couture collections. Zhenya is a must-have model during couture fashion week since she started. This time is not an exception, though she did only 4 shows: Christian Dior, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier and Elie Saab which she opened and had 4 gowns. Unfortunately she wasn't at Valentino HC show, but it's a shame of him. Zhenya was one of his favourite models, she was at all his shows, but suddenly since this fall season she stopped. I don't know why but hope Mr. Garavani will bethink himself.

big thnx to je47key who shot Zhenechka and shared these pics with us .

Hypnose

2006-06-22T10:46:00.000-07:00

Eugenia has the most amazingly gorgeous eyes in the fashion business. They are just so beautifully shaped, cat-like, mysterious, piercing and hypnotic. You won't be able to take your eyes off her!

Public appearance

2006-06-20T11:22:00.000-07:00

CFDA awards (The Council of Fashion Designers of America's awards) is frequently referred to as "the Oscars of fashion." Thanks to the crush of stars inside the Celeste Bartos Forum of the New York Public Library, that seemed truer than ever at last night's 25th annual celebration. And only the best top-models among guests: Eugenia Volodina, Natalia Vodianova, Karolina Kurkova, Hana Soukupova, Elose Crombez and others. Enjoy the HQ pcts from this award. Big thanx to original posters from BZ and TFS.

Dark angel

2006-05-31T03:03:00.000-07:00

I didn't have time to come to my senses after finding new Biotherm ads...and another nice sirprise, Alien Sex Friend (TFS) shared these stunning pcts from Numero mag photographed by Tom Munro with us! Most of them I have never seen before! Dark, mysterious, moody editorial, it shows the dark side of a woman, dangerous and powerful! What can I add? I love it even though her beautiful eyebrows are painted over. Want to see a video click here

The muse

2006-05-22T06:45:00.000-07:00

I was in a bad mood today. What can cheer up me a bit? Buying fashion magazine of cause! And what can make my day? Right! Something new about Eugenia! I bought Marie Claire today and what did I see... an article about Eugenia...it was in Russian but I make a translation and now everyone can enjoy it... I hope you will...

A mysterious girl.

Just hearing the name of Russian model Eugenia Volodina, venerable representatives of a beauty industry are breaking into a smile. This mysterious beauty is highly rated not only for appearance, but for her highest capacity for work and easy temper.
The destiny of Eugenia Volodina is another fairy tale about Cinderella who unexpectedly even for herself became popular, famous and well-liked. "I began working in a small agency in Kazan while studing at school. Once agency sent me to Paris for shooting. I even didn't think about popularity and international career at that time. I just finished my school and wanted to see how things would go in modelling. But suddenly everything began to develop with a high speed" - recalls Eugenia. Cult fashion-photographer Steven Meisel noticed the girl. Since their meeting dizzy career of a a beuty from kazan has begun.

For model agencies Eugenia Volodina became simply Eugenia. She managed to amaze seasoned Western agents and assignment editors of fashion of the best magazines. Designers, journalist and admirers began to call her just amazon, woman-vamp and goddess. After shooting with Steven Meisel Eugenia got a contract with Gucci. Tall, slim, with nonchalant air, mysterious and unattainable, Eugenia graced the shows of best designers of the 2 continents: Chanel, Christian Dior, Dolce&Gabbana, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier, John Galliano, Louis Vuitton, Versace - all of them coloudn't resist her charm.
In spite of her popularity in fashion business, Eugenia is not presumptuous, and people who meet her first of all speak of her as a nice person. Perhaps, thanks to this fact she could handle with capricious Valentino and became not only one of his favourite models, but also the face of his new Valentino V parfume. "At first when I came to casting it was a bit hard fot me but later we became friends" - says eugenia about famous designer. "He nursed with me as with a daughter inviting me over. I even was on a visit to his house for holidays."
Nowadays Eugenia lives and works in Paris. But she doesn't forget about Russia. Zhenya loves to come home and when an opportunity offers she leaves the works of famous couturiers and light of soffits for Kazan. "My relatives live here...and my beloved man" ' she says a bit embarrassing. "That's why I try to come here every month."
Top-model Eugenia gives a piece of good advice: "Always smile to people, be outgoing, love and respect yourself - and success won't keep waiting itself. After all I just work day after day and try to do my job well"

The face

2006-05-21T11:12:00.000-07:00

Hurray! She got another beauty campaign - Biotherm! And it's not suprising for me. Her face is a perfect creation for cosmetics ads! Even don't try to deny it!

Zhenya Potter

2006-04-24T14:25:00.000-07:00

I decided to devote this post to Eugenia in (sun)glasses in all kind of pictures: editorials, ads and runway. Let me introduce the new magician - Zhenya Potter ;)

Polaroids time

2006-04-22T14:41:00.000-07:00

Not much to say in this post...Polaroids show if a model has potential, if camera loves her, if she is photogenic. Here are some Eugenia's polaroids and show cards...old ones from Viva agency and the latest I have from DNA agency.

How do you smell?

2006-04-22T09:36:00.000-07:00

Well, she didn't become J'adore's face but I think it's a big loss for Dior House and not for Eugenia cause she got a fair amount of contracts with other beauty brands. So since 2003 she represents Salvatore Ferragamo's "Incanto" exquisitely captivating floral and woody fragrance appering in ads as a seminude modern Cinderella who lost her crystal shoe and whose dreams will come true as soon as she tries this fragrance.

"Her" second second fragrance was fruited floral YSL's "In love again", in its ads she emerges as the romantic girl who dreams of everlasting love, or at least, of falling in love again.

And the biggest success was to represent Valentino's "V" fragrance. In print and television commercial campaigns Eugenia emerges as a modern goddess, wearing only a red-feather mask, and besieged by hundreds of fluttering red Vs. Here is what she thinks about it: "Valentino is so special because he can transform every woman into a shining, glamorous goddess... Valentino’s clothes make me confident in my femininity. It felt the same way to be wearing just the red feather mask during the shoots"

Cheeeeeese!!!

2006-04-21T11:14:00.000-07:00

She always seems so serious sitting with a book somewhere in the corner or speaking on mobile phone with her boyfriend (her second passion), cold like Ice queen and so far from this world on the runway... But it's only first impression. If you watch any video where she is talking you'll see she is a normal girl who likes to smile, who is a bit shy and cute. This post is devoted to another... smiling Eugenia who loves to dance and laugh at backstage.

A visit to homeland

2006-04-21T03:48:00.000-07:00

On November 23 (2005) Eugenia, Naomi Campbell and Marc Jacobs came to Moscow. They flew here by personal plane. Then they visited The Central House of an Artist and had a supper in one of the restaurants of Moscow.

Using this case Harper's Bazaar Russia asked her to adorn its anniversary March cover. Photo shoot was held when it was about 5 degrees below zero and Zhenya was wearing summery Louis Vuitton dress but she is a professional and this cold weather couldn't hinder the process. Marc Jacobs who says Eugenia is one of his favourite models chose the clothes for this cover.

Wild elegance

2006-04-20T13:01:00.000-07:00

This photo shoot is from Italian Vogue (October 2005). It was photographed by Nathaniel Goldberg. I like the feeling of unceasing motion, it's energy, the way Eugenia's hair is fluttering, this rush, some alarm, this excitement like something will happen soon, something mysterious in everything: in model's pose, in her look, in decoration and interior and black&white gamut promotes the strengthening of these emotions.

I'll decorate your way with flowers

2006-04-20T08:52:00.000-07:00

This editorial from Russian Vogue (April 2004) is one of my favourite editorials ever! The idea of this photo shoot was inspired by flowers. Zhenya looks like a beautiful butterfly with these long lashes, light-pink lipstick and of course in these fantastic Houte Couture dresses, so airy, fairy and weightless like whipped cream on a cake. Karl Lagerfeld is a genious, isn't he!

Healthy life-style

2006-04-20T07:47:00.000-07:00

She never goes in for sports, only sometimes goes to the swimming-pool but only for pleassure. She gave-up smoking and is on an apple diet for two days per month. She thoroughly takes care of her skin and always keeps 3 stages: cleansing, toning up, moisturizing. She prefers Lancome cosmetics. In everyday life she rarely uses make-up but then always has a bottle of thermal water for her face.

Hear her voice

2006-04-20T07:00:00.000-07:00

She loves Dolce&Gabbana's "smart and sexy" clothes, Dolce and Gabbana loves her. They chose her for their campaigns and she graces all their shows.

Here is what she thinks about their fall/winter 2006/07 collection. "It's glamourous, it's sexy, it's beautiful, nice fabric always, it's amazing!"

Books are her passion

2006-04-20T04:58:00.000-07:00

There is such a stereotype that models are only beautiful dolls without brains...I can neither confirm nor disprove it. But I think if you want to reach the top-status you should possess more than that. As professionals used to say, beauty is smth more inside than outside. I have to agree. Zhenya is deffinetely one the girls who have this inside beauty. You don't need to explain it, it's seen is her look, in the way she moves and poses...

As you can see from backstage pcts Eugenia doesn't spend much time with model-friends chatting, smiling and posing for the camera as other girls do. She prefers to read. She says: "There is nothing to do betweet shows. And I read". From the pictures I saw I may conclude Zhenya likes both foreign and Russian literature but prefers Russian detectives.

Jadore?

2006-04-20T03:48:00.000-07:00

All Zhenya's fans and those who have more or less interest in her career could find several tens of sites which say that Eugenia Volodina got Dior's Jadore campaign but it seems no one saw it or at least knew why we didn't see it anywhere. Here is what I could find out about it. "Eugenia Volodina, who lost the J'Adore job as a blondie just before her ads hit the printers (the insecure Dior Beaute brass balked at the last moment and renewed C Kass for a couple more seasons last year - it wasn't because CK "moved product", as some NYC pros assumed) got a YSL Beaute job instead."

Ah, you know now I am so mad about Dior House and Carmen Kass aswell!

"Her beauty is not from this earth"

2006-04-19T10:41:00.000-07:00

Each girl wants to be a princess or a Hollywood princess or a princess of pop music or the bride of beautiful prince. A dreamy person may be dreaming for hours. But later they usually come back to real life. Most people do, but some of them dont come back and their real life becomes a fantasy.A young model girl shows chic clothes gracefully which cost more than 10.000$. Looking at her it is not easy to realise that this magnificence is only entourage for that successful girl who only does her job, this job wich seemed to be a dream...

...Eugenia Volodina...ideal features...thoughtful serious look of blue eyes... All the things happened to her and around her on summer 2004 in Paris seem to be a dream. But heroine of that dream is an earthy beauty.Paris. Monday. Morning. Audience, clients and editors of fashion magazines have come here to see the Dior Haute Couture fashion show. They try to be quiet. But behind the scenes the things differ. Models who are laced up try not to fall down and not to be suffocated. Some models have masks a-la Egypt on their faces....So Volodina appears... Her dress made of silk is wonderful. Make up: red and pink triangles near eyes and green eyebrows made of crorodile leather... Only she, a well-known and successful model doesnt have mask, becouse "only new models have to put them on" - she said 2 days after the show... But not to show such a face is the last thing to do.

...So Volodina appears... Her dress made of silk is wonderful. Make up: red and pink triangles near eyes and green eyebrows made of crorodile leather... Only she, a well-known and successful model doesnt have mask, becouse "only new models have to put them on" - she said 2 days agter the show... But not to show such a face is the last thing to do.She has just arrived from Ralph Rucci show especially for Russian Vogue. She almost has no free time, she has so much work this week. It is difficult to realise that Eugenia is that girl who shows those unbelivable dreasses. She wears black jeans, black sweater and trainers as a simple 20y.-old girl. But they are from known designers and she can afford them. Her favourite brands are Dolce&Gabbana and Gucci because "they are smart, elegant and sexy".These things looks like Zhenya (Volodina) whose look adorns Dolce&Gabbana adv.

She looks like Italian star. Her first foto-survey, devoted to Italy, took place in Milan and one of the article was devoted to women with vividly expressed noses. Eugenia is one of them. She looks through a new edition of work with pleasure. She found that "Tatiana Sorocco's "Telegrams" are very amusing. But in the morning I saw her reading George Oruell's book "1984". Books are her passion, she reads everything in Russian and in English. "I like books very much. Read one till the end and begin to read the next one. There is nothing to do on the time between shows. "The survey for Vogue is inspired by "flower" ideas. So from a black doll, very beautiful doll, she becomes a colourful butterfly. "...your hair" - said a smiling barber showing artificial hair. Then a make-up specialist glues artificial lashes on Eugenia's natural. He asks what does "poka-poka" mean? She explain that it is "bye-bye" in Russian.

Eugenia was born in Tatarstan, she began model business at 14. But she bacame famous in 2002, when Steven Meisel noticed her and made the first foto for the Vogue Italy cover. The first adv. was also made in 2002 - for Gucci. She was 18. Now she lives in Paris and doesnt want to leave it for New-York as many models do. Is she a Russian or an international model? She answers that she is a Russian model and she is proud of that. "When I finish my model career I'll come back home but now I don't know exactly what I am going to do".Bronze sunburn suits her very much. She has got brown during her rest with her boyfriend. Boyfriend? Her eyes sparkle..."He is from Russia. Our men are the best! I miss him and my large family: 2sisters and a brother. Once a month a go home to see them. There I can relax, I wake up at 6 o clock in the morning and come home at 3. For my relatives I am not a chic model. I am who I am and I dont talk with them about my business." So I realise that her business is a very hard and exausting job. Zhenya dreams:" When I earn milliard dollars, I will buy a house on some exotic island."

After Dior show she becomes almost a 2-m.high likeness of Donatella Versace in Ritz hotel. The next day on Chanel she looks in a different way. Now she is a graceful lady. So there is less Italian and more Spanish in her. She marches past and the music ... "You are so beautiful". Eugenia is favoured to close Valentino show. She wears a long black party dress. Velentino (about Volodina): "her beauty is exceptional, ideal proportions. beautiful face, unusual eyes. Charm...everything in Eugenia is of the higherst quality."On Ungaro she shows a long red dress and she looks like a Hollywood star. Ungaro:"I am fascinated and entranced since I saw her for the first time. Her beauty is fragile, not from this earth, magic... mystarious. Sometimes I saw in Eugenia Grace Kelly, sometimes Marlen Ditrih or Odrey Hepbern.Most of all she is quiet inside..."

Are not you tired of making the same things every day? I think:no. She really likes what she does. She likes fashion shows, her favourite is Victiria's Secret's. She said about it with enthusiasm: "I marchesed past on this show 2 times. Everything was so beautiful. We are all angels with wings. And you simply forget that you shows underwear. You are an angel."Suddenly she stops...and thinks about something. She is in her fantasy dreaming about angels and princess...somewhere...very far...

Hello everyone!
I have just created this blog and need some time to learn how everything works here.
