The Seychelles archipelago is really a pearl and it is the perfect location for fashion events thanks to its wonderful sites and exotic beauties. I think that these events shouldn’t be only glamour, red carpet or runway but also an occasion to convey projects of promotion of the country and its culture. The Seychelles are the perfect union between fashion and natural beauties”.

She doesn’t have the aggressive character that is common amongst famous models. I hope I can give a positive contribution to her career and to the promotion of her image. I will be glad to have Miss Seychelles 2012 in Rome to do a photo shoot to be presented to the press during the Italian fashion week “Alta Moda” that will show the natural elegance and beauty of Seychellois women and their ethno-chic mood. The melting pot of cultures that formed the population of this archipelago has produced, especially amongst the young generation, exotic ancestry with women of such a beauty and vitality that can embellish any runway”.
