Model - Polina Evgenievna Kuklina

When Polina Kuklina was born in 1986, even then every year it was impossible not to notice that interest in the fashion world in our country was growing. In 1988, the first beauty contest was held in Moscow, then a model agency “Red Stars” was opened, modeling contests began. Glossy magazines began to be published - Elle, Cosmopolitan, and then Vogue, Harper's Bazaar. And the whole life in the former USSR changed radically - there were people who achieved more, who had a different way of life. And among young girls there were more and more of those who were interested in fashion, and this was already considered in the order of things. Some have made friends, one way or another connected with the fashion world. Of the girls of the second half of the 90s, they often got into models through friends. This happened sometimes for purely accidental reasons, when some shooting was disrupted, and looking for a girl through an agency is a waste of time, and what kind of girl will come, and whether her image will suit, and even the character may be capricious ... So it was possible earn a little money. Such temporary models came and went, after filming they returned to their school or university, and most of them were not going to return again. Everything was perceived as either a hobby or just a little entertainment.

Polina Kuklina was also fascinated by such an interesting fashionable life. In 2000, she modeled for a small French agency, Idol, although there were no contracts. In the same 2000, photographs of Russian fashion were published in the Russian magazine "Elle", where Polina took part. This was followed by a whole series of photographs for 2001. And it would seem that no one was particularly interested in her image, everything seemed to happen from time to time. But how did Polina appear in the modeling business. As she later said herself in an interview with the German “Vogue” - she and her friend went together to the fashion house to Vyacheslav Zaitsev - they thought to try to work as a model. But that day they were late - however, by a happy coincidence, a scout of a modeling agency saw her and came up with a proposal to pursue a modeling career. It all ended with the fact that Polina signed a contract with the Take2 agency. And in the summer of 2003 she was already on the podium in Europe. Polina Kuklina became the face of Miu Miu, as well as Stella McCartney, Rrada. It was filmed by famous photographers Max Vadukul, Solve Sundsbo, Satoshi Saikuza, Nick Knight, Ben Hassett.
