With its strange facies, its face curvature – pointing out beautiful the Middle Ages – and its morphology évanescente, the Belgian Hanne Gaby Odiele knew to allure the cream of the makers of signal models. Pretence to leave straight of a painting Jan van Eyck, this creature fair fascine very as much as it intrigues, exerting an irresistible attraction on the small world of the mode…
“Strange”, such is the word which seems best to define Hanne Gaby Odiele: strange is its entry in the universe of the mannequinat, strange is its beauty, strange is its course. Indeed, nothing predestined Hanne Gaby, born in 1988 in Belgium, with being one day the face of Missoni…
Whereas thousands of teenagers live with related of Kate Moss placarded to their wall, at 16 years Hanne Gaby does not know almost anything as regards mode. This skinny real tomboy prefers to run the concerts with his brother and crayonner some sketches to spend time. This known as, its common physique not very could not escape the eyes of the “talent scout” being in crowd of the festival Nova Rock, to which the young girl assists in 2005…
This last tomb then in stop in front of the teenager and convinces it to come to make some photographs at Dominique Models. While going there, Hanne Gaby Odiele definitively upsets the course of its destiny: falling under the charm from its strange beauty, the agency decides to offer its chance to him by sending it to New York, in order to take part in the fashion week. Once on the American ground, the agency Supreme Management takes it under its wing and introduces it at Marc Jacobs and Rodarte…
Hanne Gaby – which hitherto had been satisfied to charm its entourage with its pouts sulky people and its merry mimicry – then realizes that it cannot absolutely go with heels. The beautiful one includes/understands whereas it will be supposed to gain a little experiment if she wants to be more than one momentary very favorite of an agency…
However, she learns quickly and its communicative good mood makes forget its hesitant step, so that at the end of the fashion week she finds herself already bookée to pose in the middle of the English and Italian editions of Vogue. A little later Hanne Gaby appears in the campaigns Alberta Ferretti and Topshop. Whereas it is about to conquer the world of the mode definitively, it does not suspect that all brutally will stop for it…
Of return to it for the festivals of Christmas, it is indeed victim of an car accident which will break several bones to him, nailing it with the bed during many weeks and imposing a long convalescence to him.
However, which could have marked the stop of its career does nothing but reinforce its desire for going up on the podiums: it realizes that this trade is appropriate to him with wonder and that it would not give up it for nothing the world. Blow, when one year hardly after its accident Vera Wang recontacts it, Hanne Gaby answers immediately present.
In 2007, it ravels thus for Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu and Yves Saint Laurent. Since, not a Parisian fashion week is not held without it…
Not satisfies with truster the podiums, this blonde thread-like also types in the eye of the photographers more the sides: she poses thus for Ryan McGinley, Terry Richardson and Steven Meisel, which does nothing but confirm its statute of signal bankable. She offers even a true setting orbits fashion of it while becoming the egery of Balenciaga, under the objective of David Sims…
This beauty sublimates so strong that it could pass for bizarrery does not finish any besides intriguing the world of the mode. Ines of Fressange estimates for its part that with this structure of face, the beautiful one cannot pass unperceived, while Nathalie Rykiel acknowledges to find much knack to this icy beauty come from North.
And if its timetable does not have anything to envy that of Anna Wintour, Hanne Gaby Odiele does not remain about it less one hardly adult young woman endeavouring to benefit from the life. It which did not know anything with the mode interests thus from now on in the creators of the academy of Antwerp (it appreciates particularly the collections of Dries Van Noten) and acknowledges to have almost very learned about clothing through work from designers such as Carine Roitfeld, Camilla Nickerson and Marie-Amélie Sauvé.
She also states to adore to have fun the festival with her New Yorkean friends (of which Alexander Wang forms part), to saunter in the small rooms in concert to the mounting of the new musical tendencies and to pass the evenings endiablées on the roof of her building, when it is not with very the select club Beatrice Inn…
However, in spite of its apparent ease, Hanne Gaby is aware well that only a professionalism without fault will enable him to last. It is thus without surprise which it reveals to have perfect for model more than Raquel Zimmermann.
Look point of view of, so from its countryside for Balenciaga it endeavours always to carry at least an accessory of the claw, its dress code is usually made up of one mix of parts vintage and clothing rock’n'roll, with often a point of purple. An alloy of styles as one finds on his iPod, vibrating as well with the sound of Janis Joplin as of Nirvana.
And when one wonders about the secrecies of beauty of this creature to the paces of androïde Flemish, one understands quickly that the young woman has simply a good genetic inheritance and not a coach hidden in her wall cupboard. Indeed, besides a little yoga and some grapefruit juice glasses die die, Hanne Gaby does not make large-thing to maintain its translucent dye and its silhouette sylphid…
