How did your career start and how did you get into the modeling business?
I started my career with The Agency Elan Management in Geneva.
What brands have you worked with and what would you like to work with?
I have worked with Aubade, Agent Provocateur, LAPERLA, Fabergé and many others talented designers. I would like to work with Gucci, Versace and Nike.
What was the most difficult photo shoot for you?
The most difficult shoot for me was the last one for VOGUE Portugal, mars 2023. I was travelling a lot at that time and was pregnant for 2 months. My body was changing and my energy too. We had a magnificent and artistic result because of the Team that was really good at their work. Some dresses couldn’t close anymore, I gained weight but I felt comfortable at work and we made a great result.
What restrictions do you have on photo shoots or fashion shows?
I have no restrictions on photo shoots. I just prepared to arrive in good condition to work. A good sleep, hydrated and clean skin and hair.
Who do you admire in the modeling business and who is your favorite fashion designer?
I admire the models that work for CHANEL in the modeling business because CHANEL is one of my favorite fashion Haute Couture designer.
What should not be afraid of those who want to step on the world podium?
They should be confident and never stop to believe and dream and take actions!
Do you have a secret that helps you stay in shape?
My secret that helps me to stay in shape is my own motivation to make my dreams come true. I have a nutrition for health diploma and I am studying Aromatherapie to become a naturopathic practitioner. I am also working on my brand for perfumes and candles since the beginning of this year 2023. When I have the opportunity to return to my first passions, acting and modeling on camera, I get really excited to have the opportunity to express myself and to be even more creative. I always imagine getting new covers for magazines and acting gigs while I work out or stretch daily. There are no limits for us humans to do what we want and love to do.
What is always in your makeup bag?
A mascara and lip balm stick.
How can you describe your style in one sentence?
I am Cameleon.
Was it your dream to act in films, or did it happen by chance?
Yes, it was my dream to act in films. I did many workshops during 2 years and then I studied at New York Film Academy in Los Angeles for 3 years. I have an Affiliate Fine Arts Acting for Film degree.
Do you have any education or training that influences your modeling and acting skills?
Yes, I have a Commercial diploma. I used to work in a Jewellery and watches boutique. I learned human behaviors at commercial school. I observed people during the trips I had in different countries with my father while I was a child. I still observe a lot.
You successfully combine two areas: modeling and acting. What do you spend more time on now?
I spend more time on modeling now and I am still working on acting projects.
What are the positive and negative aspects of your profession?
New York Film Academy was a great experience of training. I worked on my different characters and I also learned about myself on a deeper level. Professionally, artistically and Spiritually. It is not always easy to differentiate ourselves and the characters we play. But I’ve learned to center and to be grounded.
Tell us about your own perfume line, which you are currently creating?
It is too early for me to say more than I am working on my perfume line. You can follow my Instagram page @beritelabelle I will speak more about it soon.
What inspired you to create your own fragrance?
I had the dream to do it and I contacted a great perfumer in Geneva. He is also working in Paris, we met, I talked about my vision and idea and we signed a contract.
How do you spend your free time from filming and work?
I spend free time with my husband and my 2 cats.
Can you share your plans for the future?
My plan for the future is to continue to be happy.
