The Woman Who Made Fashion Elegance Anna Karta

GRACE AND POWER M

odern version of Princess Grace Anna Karta needs no introduction as one of the most celebrated and prolific Model of our time and with over 2million solid followers in social media, there’s something to be said for. Instantly recognisable, her face, personality carve a fine line between sensuality and pure, unadulterated fun. They are charged with a certain kind of hyperkinetic energy that teases both the subject and the observer.

Excitable and articulate, with a tremendous

smile that threatens to take over and a laugh that comes from the depths of the belly yet subtle, you can’t help but be excited by the inspired beauty. Whether she realises it or not, she is often the most magnetic person in the room.

With a figure that defies the laws of nature and a face that is almost supernaturally photogenic and possibly has the most beautiful legs we’ve ever seen in our time. It’s really no surprise that Anna Karta is one of the most influential models around the world and not to mention juggling life of being a Mom of 4 and a powerful husband.

In front of the camera, or far from its gaze, Anna Karta is, was and will always be an Epitome of Class and Style.

KSENIA DOLINSKAYA

IS A FAMOUS RUSSIAN ARTIST. HER ART IS A STATEMENT WHICH LEAD THE ART LOVER TO THE WORLD OF FANTASY AND SURREALISM!

I cannot say that as a child I dreamt of becoming an artist, however art was so organic and conscious to me, that already at the age of three I just knew that this was my destiny.

Ksenia what is your story? Have you always dreamed of being an artist? How did you start?

I was born into a family of a test pilot and artist, and during my childhood my parents have instilled in me a love for art and reading and developed my attentiveness and observation in these subjects. Once a month, my father used to change the art reproductions above my bed, ensuring that many art masterpieces became so familiar and understandable to me.

I cannot say that as a child I dreamt of becoming an artist, however art was so organic and conscious to me, that already at the age of three I just knew that this was my destiny.

However, my biggest dream was to become a famous ballerina as my grandmother often took me to see the ballet. After my childhood I did not start as an artist from the very beginning and came to art much later, however this is another story.

You have a very interesting genre of your artist works, why did you choose exactly this one?

This is the most frequently asked question! Well, the creation of these images is influenced by many aspects, one of them is that I am very close to the aesthetics of nudity, the beauty of the human body, however I would not want to paint a specific person.

Many people are like animals and are not embarrassed by the naked body of their character, because the genre character lives in a fantasy which is a non-existent world shrouded by its own charm. If I artistically create the model as a specific person, this will express the model’s own character and energy, which is not what I was looking for.

You show the strong connection between a woman and an animal, what does it mean for you?

Here I could only complete the previous answer and share a little secret with you! Very soon I will also portray men in this genre, not only women! One way or another all of us are divided into two categories: “predators” and “victims” which makes us quite complicated to get along together.

We use words as an act such as “obey”, “surrender”, “conquer”, “cunning”, and sometimes even “killing”. And you could often hear “Ah … She is such a predator” or “Wow, she is such a fox” or “She is such a bunny”, or “Well, he’s just a beast,” etc.

Have you ever showcased your paintings during international art exhibitions?

Not for now. At present I refuse to exhibit some of my works however I may reconsider this decision. The main reason is that I use the old classical painting technique, so one piece could take at least half a year of work, sometimes even longer depending on the size. Therefore, today I only organize private shows.

What are your plans for the near future?

Ohhhh! I have big plans! I am planning to finish my collection of twenty artworks and finally start to exhibit! Also, I have already started to get inspiration and think over my next collection which will be so different from the current one, but for now I prefer to keep these ideas my secret!

Being such a long time in the world of art, what would you wish to aspiring artists?

Well, first, I would wish all young artists to be in love with what he or she does! However, if they start to feel burnt out during studying and honing their artistic skills, it may be worth switching attention temporarily to something new. Unfortunately, talent and inspiration do not always go well together but when they meet, however nothing will stop the artist from creating a masterpiece!

Many people are like animals and are not embarrassed by the naked body of their character, because the genre character lives in a fantasy which is a nonexistent world shrouded by its own charm

FINANCE AND TRADING PSYCHOLOGY

BY KATERYNA SANTORINA

Successful mind transformation coach and mentor for the most influential personalities in the world!

She makes people to reach their financial goals without limits! Monaco based psychologist running online courses and private sessions. She is successful and her time is expensive! She is one of a kind who would better be choosing new model of Bentley until late than wasting her time for a “good” night sleep.

Kateryna started her active trading journey two years and since that time this highly valued Expert was able to make 1,5 million euro of net profit!

Tell us your story. What brought you from being mental transformation coach to active crypto trading?

Finances has always been my niche. I love money and luxury lifestyle! I would say that I have a lifetime romance with everything what is expensive! I h elped thousand of people to earn their first million by the way of using my own methods for mental transformation based on unchangeable laws of classical psychology.

Two years ago, I was mentoring one of the biggest crypto investors in the world. He had so much success that, as a gratitude gesture, offered me seven bitcoins in addition to my salary. I kept them in my wallet as a long-term investment however, seeing how its value is changing day by day, the strong decision to explore psychology of crypto trading was taken!

Why have you chose crypto currency among all trading assests?

While learning the basics of trading I eventually started to practice and I would emphasize t hree main reasons why I have chosen crypto:

First of all, this is a limitless source of income. Secondly, I can work from anywhere in the world. And the third reason that crypto currency and, especially its technologies build

Trading is the hardest way to the easiest money!

Photographer: Blerim Shabani @blerimshabaniphotography Kateryna Voroniuk @kateryna.voroniuk Style: Jeanne Atelier @jeanne__atelier

our future, therefor we need to understand those technologies and how, basically, they are working. I can assure you that very soon it will become our reality.

All these components made me move deep into this topic and with experience of testing different strategies I became an Expert. I believe in cryptocurrency growth and developing and I’m very much interested in it. Today, I have an amazing opportunity to regulate my income myself, the time I devote to my work and, the most important thing, I constantly improving my skills and knowledge!

What is the link between psychology and trading?

There is direct connection between trading and psychology. I have been exploring and learning this field for more than two years and I have already been trading actively for one year. From my own experience I can assure you that 90% of success in the cryptocurrency market depends on Trader’s psychological state of mind. According to official statistics, there are only five percents of traders who trade successfully, the rest of participants are simply amateurs who give up after the first fail.

My mission is to insert a psychological component into trading. This combo gives the opportunity to become successful and pumping in other areas via massive mental transformation!

At my opinion crypto market and, especially, active trading is the best place for mind sets transformation and self-developing!

Tell us more about your massive crypto trading course.

Well, as I mention before, successful trading depends on a total mental health which could be reached only by passing a therapy. Therefor, my course is essential, as it gives everything you need to know about crypto market and its currency, obtain new skills and, at the same time to pass a long-term psychological therapy which will bring you to full mental transformation in all fields of life!

With the group of very influential Experts and Professors my students are also learning the basics such as, technical analysis, economics, investments, and psychology of finances!

The funny thing is that all beginners are doing completely the same mistakes and its very complicated to handle and accept that “first lost” and not to give up! However, when they are passing through this hard period with a group of same level students, supported by highly qualified mentors, in a few weeks’ time the first profit and confidence are coming!

Moreover, by the end of the course all students multiply their initial deposit at 100%

minimum!

Afterall, those who want to move further have opportunity to our “Crypto Channel” where I personally navigate their activity in order to earn and not to lose!

What are your plans for the nearest future?

Well, the most important for me now is to insert psychological factor to trading activity on a g lobal level! People should realize that the roawd to their billions will be the way more easier with a right mind sets and absence of psychological blocs!

Apart of this, I am planning keep my personal growth in active trading and make another few millions of profits!

Successful TRADER is not a financial expert, is the one who controls his mental health!

EVAN SINGH LUTHRA

There are millionaires in the world today that have been alive for many years from Business magnates to School dropouts, and one in particular, as one of the youngest millionaire at the age of 27 years who amassed his fortunes in ways different from another but resulted in similar financial status.

EVAN Luthra currently shaping the economy with over 2 million instagram followers and spoken to 200 events in 25 countries and named in Forbes 30 under 30 Entrepreneur is the Man.

Evan an inspiring personality who started his journey building 30 apps for iPhone at the age of 13 years old, created his 1st company and made his first 2 million at 17 years old and never look back.

How did you do it? How did you choose your field of Work? You Inspiration?

I have found my passion and just focus to grow. My primary goal is not really to make money but to create a lot of value for others and along the journey I realised that money and success is by product of creating value for others. I would say the backbone of what I believe and my goal in Life.

On the other hand in the world of Crypto, I bought my first bitcoin way back in 2014. Two years later, my own company started reaching out and expanded in the world of block chain. My wealth is growing by investing 300 Crypto companies specially in the last 3 years.

Today, I spend some of my time travelling to give and share my insightful comments on crypto currency and block chain technology. I have spoken to 200 events in 25 countries in person.

One of my main focus is social media and I have a community of more than 2.4 million followers. If you visit my account on the platform, you will come across multiple reviews, articles and other valuable pieces on cryptocurrency, which is especially useful to anyone who wants to understand cryptocurrency and blockchain better.

Right now I want to invest where I see there’s a potential to create technology and to help the industry.

How do you analyse if the token will Grow or not? What are your key points in terms of investing?

I always want to analyse and see how much value a project brings.

I believe if you have a big community, literally anything can grow as we have seen it with the main coins like Dolce and Shiba. It is important in a long term to have substance in order to grow your investment and to provide a significant value to all your stakeholders holding the coin.

Two things I take into consideration when investing, first I look for community and second value generation.

Recently you are connected with the NFT’s? Any few Words about this meaning — are you investing? Help to create? Sell?

I believe in NFT’s community

and I invested a lot and technically its like the same concept as Patek Philippe Watch. Patek Philippe has a watchmaking history behind it, showcasing Elegant, Beautiful timepieces with the most complicated mechanical watches as well as movements. Therefore, a lot of people would want, and supplies are limited. NFT’s allows distance and cursory ”DEMAND and SUPPLY”. There can never be 10K Board Apes. The more people use it, the more price goes up. It is strictly DEMAND and SUPPLY and this has always been my focus. I invested about 5 millions over the last 2 years. I believe in NFT’s and its like collecting tangible Art and I have a lot.

NFT’s have made it possible for everyone to own original work. This even extends to works that are too costly for most people to afford individually, as buyers can fractionally invest in creators’ pieces and it is easier to trace on the block chain.

I give a lot of free advice and information especially on my instagram platform and twitter and anyone can follow me there as they can see everything what I’m investing, what I’m doing and currently involved and we go from there.

What do you think of the bitcoin right now due to current situation?

I have been in this business for a while, and I’ve seen it all and I also know that in the long term it will go up and just keep your pace and it will. The fundamentals have not changed.

What do you think of Shiba?

I have to admit it has been a roller coaster ride for Shiba and although the current value is not very high, it is still proving itself an excellent choice for investors. Shiba is a main coin and as long as the community and organisations working together to create value and will hold on to it then in the long run “Who Knows? Fundamentals of Shiba are not Strong but Bitcoin is strong.

Do you have Bitcoin?

I have a lot of bitcoin, bitcoin is my number one portfolio asset.

You made a name for yourself as one of the under 30 millionaire entrepreneurs, what can you recommend to any young individuals who has the desire to achieve the same level as you in life?

Well,

Do you think now the best time to invest NFT’s better than Real Estate?

I believe in digital investment, and when it comes to digital investment the key point is that you need to diversify and do as many different industries as much as you can.

I have to say that the cyrtocurrency and the blockchain have made their way into many industries. And as more of our lives move into the digital arena, the ways we buy and sell products are continually changing. Real estate is seeing its own shift toward the block chain with the creation of no fungible tokens that represent physical properties. This technology is no doubt to have a tremendous impact on the future of commercial real estate.

In Crypto space you can focus on defy, on infrastructure and communities the more diversification you do the better for you in the long run.

You mention you Educate people, do you have online course, summits perhaps, or is it just participating block chain events or crypto trading? How does it work?

In my business there is no Selling of courses and No Trading Programs!

As a matter of fact, I don’t recommend to trade, I recommend to buy cryptocurrency holding to profit from its long term value appreciation. Trading is not something I would recommend to anybody, 90% people lose their money.

I usually a speaker to these events, I find this action as a way of giving back to my community. I don’t believe anyone selling a course or get rich quick is really beneficial because you can actually get information available free online.

Can you give advise and guidance about investments?

Will you give advice, mentorship or just friendly advice?

• Find your passion

• Focus on adding value to others

• With Crypto You can join with zero dollars and the Will to learn and to add Value

I believe if you have a big community, literally anything can grow.

Natalia Emelianova, well known worldwide as a Crypto Queen, did a long way from a simple girl from small village with a family budget of 100$ to a successful independent woman, who does not deny herself anything. Reaching her goals in professional field she got the point where was no way to stay at a regular job! She had chosen to become a trader and now teaching her audience how to reach successful independent life!

Over the past 4 years I have been in 30 countries, every one -three months I choose a new location for comfortable life and work.

Crypto market is a playground for many young traders where even students are trying to take part there. Do you think it’s essential to have relevant education before to to start trading?

First of all, based on the experience of successful traders and mine I would say that, like all the others, also this profession requires education.

As in any monetary sphere there is a lot of fog and a lot of scammers around trading, that promises to make you millioner in 1 day. So, among the huge amount of garbage in online education, it is very difficult to find something worthwhile.

Looking at the Forbes list, you can see that many of them that billionaires are investors or traders, and they are mostly Americans.

That’s why I chose to study at one of the best American trading academies.

What is your strategy? Would you prefer trading or long-term investments?

Depends on the economic situation; In good times I work with technical and fundamental analysis on the stock market, and during the bear market I prefer to earn on short sales of cryptocurrencies.

Basically, the stock market is a more stable market crypto is riskier, because there is a lot of volatility in this market and is not regulated yet by the governments.

That’s why I don’t recommend investing all money in only one asset.

What is your personal prediction about market developing nowadays?

In this particular moment, I think it is very difficult to make predictions about the future, because there are too many uncertainties that do not allow you to make an easy decision. Inflation is rising, the biggest companies are losing capital, which makes the overall picture even more dramatic.

People who want to invest are looking for something to protect their money from the negative effects of inflation. I bel ieve that the serious and solid projects will be even stronger in the

next period, because I think in the next months, we will see a natural selection that will make those projects that are not solid fall. And only those that have strength and credibility will remain. Of course, the hard part of this job is figuring out which assets are strong, and which are weak.

Which educational services do you provide?

After a year and a half of training and 3 Years of successful investment in crypto and trading Forex I decided to do my own classes in which I teach in one month how to understand the market, smart investment, technical analysis, psychology of trading. Also, I teach my student to understand the strategy of big players, what helps them to become part of this community and to move in right direction with the market.

I organize online sessions for individuals and for groups, as well as managing capitals for people who don’t have time for do it on their own

You can learn more from me on Instagram.

What is the biggest success on the market you proud of?

My biggest success 15000 $ for 30 minutes in shorting gold. I think that was my point of no return in which I realized I could never back to do a “regular” job again.

If we are talking about investments what could you recommend?

My answer is simple, because I believe that bitcoin and etherium from the beginning were created to change the present status quo and almost everything that was created after was just for make money. Probably, you can’t make x100 with investment in Bitcoin like is possible with other small coins, but at least you can be sure that these projects are safe for long turn, and they will not fall to 0.

And gold is always a good idea. But first of all I recommend you to study the basic technical analysis for better understanding when is the time to invest and when is the time to keep your money for catch better opportunities in the market.

In good times I work with technical and fundamental analysis on the stock market, and during the bear market I prefer to earn on short sales of cryptocurrencies.

Alina, why did you choose hair extensions niche?

Since the nature did not gifted me with thick hair, I had always been trying to find different solutions. I visited trichologists, did various haircuts to add more volume to my hair look. However, one failure in bleach, I did my first hair extensions. It was twenty years ago! That hair extensions specialist was a real magician for me! When I saw the result of my re-looking, I became literally obsessed with the idea of creating such a beauty every day! As a result, a year later I did the hair extensions set to my first client. At that time I did not realize that it would become a part of my dream job for the next two decades! This is probably how a “vocation” looks like … When I started to learn new technologies, I completely fall in love with my activity.

You have a very unique approach to hair extensions, what is your secret?

I have been testing all technologies as I keep wearing hair extensions myself. Therefor, I know 100% what will suit to my client for the maximum comfort and a chic look. My approach is unique and my handwriting in microcapsule extensions is different from other specialists. The most important thing for me is to make the extensions to look as natural as possible, so that no one would guess that the hair is extended.

I am running online and offline training programs and master classes. Every time I see my student’s excitement and dedication I rejoice like a child. My goal is to recruit a team and open a hair extensions academy in Nice.

Are you afraid of competition?

Despite on a large number of good hair extensions specialists I have no competitors in Cote d’Azur. Today, more than ever, there are a lot of professionals here, however, my clients value the quality, extraordinal service and time management. Not everyone is able to provide all these factors without understanding the local mentality. I have been living in French Riviera for six years and have worked with almost all nationalities.

Generally, my approach is focused on the quality. I select the best product, tools and ideas. I constantly visit exhibitions around the world, I am well versed in trends and understand all my client’s needs. The most important plan is to continue to make girls a little happier with their looks. I am desperately in love with my work and my client’s happy eyes are the highest reward for me.

CIPRIANI MONTE CARLO

BEAUTY QUEEN AND UKRAINIAN

You moved to France not so long time ago, how did these circumstances influence your life and professional activity?

In fact, my whole life has been devoted to fashion and beauty projects as well as to art and creativity! I also had been working as a TV Presenter in Kharkov and did numerous advertising campaigns and commercials, and even played in a French movie!

I love this country since my childhood which I luckily spent in Paris. Literally, I managed to bring a part of French elegance in Ukraine by opening “Sonia Rykiel Paris” boutique in Kharkov.

I love to travel and explore new places, especially when it comes to Luxury Collections. That was one of the main reasons to open Luxury Concierge and Travel Agency “Creative Voyage”where I am also involved in the organization of international high-end events.

Today, being the Director of Fashion TV Ukraine I am happy to be a part of massively media supported charity and cultural projects in France!

You are internationally recognized Beauty Queen! How does it feel to own six of the highest titles of the most prestigious Beauty Pageants worldwide? How did your journey start and what is next?

My journey in Pageants started in 2002 when I won my first Crown during the Elle Magazine Beauty Competition… I have never planned to participate in this project, but the Universe had other plans for my life journey.

Today I own such prestigious international titles, as:

Miss ELLE Ukraine 2002

Mrs. World International Ukraine 2020

Ms. World International Premier Ukraine 2021

Ms. Glamorous 2021

Mrs. Universe Monaco 2021

Mrs. Globe France 2023

The interesting thing about Beauty Pageants is when you win one prestigious title you also have important obligations! Like any other Celebrity I also have a mission! I am involved in many charity projects for my beautiful Motherland Ukraine! Since the war started in 2022, my team in Kharkov under the patronage of the President of Ukrainian International Academy of Humans Rights Defense Yuriy Gordienko evacuated about 12 thousand people form hot spots. I keep helping orphanages and that’s one of the missions of the International Events I am a part of.

Moreover, I am Ambassador of several prestigious Beauty Pageants here in France and Monaco! Together with my closest partners we are picking, preparing and send the most decent delegates to represent their country on international level!

I also have huge connections in Public Relations world which help me to bring international awareness to my activity and people I am working with.

What helps you to stay so energetic and motivated? Where do you take your inspiration?

I am inspired by music, the sea, the nature. I am very sporty as well! Moreover, I am very spiritual person. The combo of daily workouts and meditations balance me day by day.

I love art. Most of my projects connected with art vernissages of famous Ukrainian painters.

You will be probably the first whom I tell this, but I am a poetry writer! For me this is the way to express my feelings! As an artist I am far of being “regular”.

Which plans do you have for the nearest future?

Well, the first thing is to do my best to bring more international awareness to my country. Under the patronage of Fashion TV UA, we are hosting a massive Event during Cannes Film Festival this year. In July I will represent France at prestigious beauty pageant in California. After all my plan is keep living my dream life, help Ukrainian children and bring peace in my Motherhood country and in the world!

Italian Entrepreneur Flavio Briatore first entered t he fashion world with Luciano Benetton in the early 80s, playing a key role in the development and success of the Benetton brand in the US market. Briatore then made his marks in Formula One where, with a unique and innovative management style and an innate capacity to discover new talents, such as world champions Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso, he achieved incredible results, winning 7 world championships with two different teams: Benetton Formula and Renault F1. He was also successfully involved in soccer, acquiring with Bernie Ecclestone the English QPR Team and paving the way to a path that led the team years later to Premier League. Today Briatore is a very prominent and influential figure for his achievements in sports and for his business enterprises. In fact, in the course of two decades Briatore’s interests have been focused in the luxury Hospitality sector, where he has created a wide and varied portfolio of luxury F&B and entertainment brands, under the name of MAJESTAS, which represent a glamorous and exclusive lifestyle.

Briatore is very committed and involved in every aspect of his businesses and interests. With vison, charisma and sharp business instinct, he is always searching for opportunities, new challenges and projects.

A market leader in offering a fullon experience of extreme quality dining and clubbing with a strong lifestyle aspect. Since its opening in 2014, the venue attracted experience seekers thanks to its combination of bespoke cuisine, unblemished service, eclectic design & atmosphere and entertainment.

Let’s start at the beginning with “TOP Signature “…

Public relations maven Maria Topolskaya founded her TOP Signature company in 1997 with Sales representation for an exquisite luxury Parisian Hotels like Plaza Athenee and La Societe des Bains de Mer with Hotel de Paris and Hotel Hermitage. Along, with MAIA Luxury Resort & Spa, Barriere Group, Bulgari Hotels & Resort and Cheval Blanc and many others.

PR at the time when she started wasn’t a high profile business as it is nowadays but yet the basics were there: establishing and nurturing relationships with the press, listening to editors and understanding their needs, identifying angles to build relevant and interesting stories, shaping the perception of their needs, being impeccable in the organisation. In this sense, nothing has really changed.

KEEPING IT REAL AS A GLOBAL DIRECTOR — TOP SIGNATURE "MARIA TOPOLSKAYA"

She was once behind one of the world’s most influential fashion press attache and has worked with some of the very exclusive fashion designers in the history, to name few Emmanuel Ungaro, JeanLouis Scherrer, Olivier Lapidus, Chantal Tomass and many more.

You might have noticed her backstage at some of the most influential shows of fashion week in the past like Céline, Givenchy, Simone Rocha or in very exclusive events in fashion.

Maria Topolskaya is a Russian beauty, born in Moscow who is gifted to speak foreign languages. She is stylishly clad in elegant clothes then again maybe not, as Maria has always preferred to let her work do the talking. Famously discreet and not given to doing many interviews, what Maria lacks in media presence, she more than makes up with her unrivalled reputation for efficiency and attention to detail.

Maria is one powerful PR professional director and one you never hear about she is working behind the scenes, advising CEOs and presidents.

How did your career start?

A few years back, quite by chance during my trip to Italy exploring the culture, studying italian cuisine, the language and the world of fashion was introduced to me. Eventually it led me to Paris to the famous Avenue Montaigne in the Plaza Athene where I used to drink my Glass of champagne and romance of Luxury Hotels begin.

Where are you in the development of the independents?

Our goal is to create a multidisciplinary platform with 360º approach to facilitate client needs on a global level though our experience and expertise.

To what extent has your job changed over the last few years?

My romance with Luxury hotels had some ups and downs it’s inevitable but it allows me to grow as human, life circumstances and changes. Extraordinary times require extraordinary action there are no limits to my commitment to my job and with the way I see things positively it enables me to survive economic crises and not to mention the global outbreak of Coronavirus COVID along with geopolitical turbulences. With the help of my family, my professional team along with my life’s passion of what I do Today, I am in a place where I can say I am well balanced, grounded and motivated.

Extraordinary times require extraordinary action

Why did you start working with leading Fashion to leading Hotels?

My extensive experience with hotels, clients, journalists and travel companies it become my vocation to pursue my passion and willing to discover where it leads me.

After all these years in this business don’t you ever getting tired of it?

No, motivation is always there, it is in my personality. No matter what disruptive innovations we have seen in the last 10 years, haute hoteliers are always in high demand.

What advice would you give to a young ones starting out today?

To be multifunctional and be ready to find their way when hitting a crossroads amongst several professional skills. Take for instance someone who is Hotel General Manger can be an excellent cook as well as managing a company with over 1k employees “Multi tasking”

Is the way you dress important in your job?

I adore Champagne …therefore my dress sense is all about Sparkling and to display Happiness … just like “Champagne”.

When did you move to Monaco?

I’ve been here for seven years. I like the professional atmosphere, the numerous luxury events, the location close to the fashion capital Milan, which helps me grow and work to the max in the global fashion industry.

In Moscow, I reached my professional peak. I worked as a stylist at the Aldo Coppola salon in Zhukovka, with almost all of my clients being known either in secular or business circles, which is definitely the A-list of the Russian establishment. Further on, I could open my own salon in Moscow and develop, like many of my colleagues, in this direction, but it’s all local. I wished to stay in the Aldo Coppola team, becoming not just a stylist, but a top manager, a co-owner of the salon. My dream has come true in Monte Carlo. Now I realize how happy I am: I worked with a huge number of designers, magazines, actors, artists, Hollywood stars. In retrospect, I recall with pride and awe my studies in Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Milan, Moscow. Numerous contests took so much effort and persistence. I’ll never forget the overwhelming emotion after participating in the first Giorgio Armani fashion show and the work on my first cover for Vogue.

Are you a perfectionist?

Oh, yes, I think over every detail, from a cup of coffee and a glass of champagne to the global, professional details that provide comfort and convenience for my clients. When I started, the first step for me was to open a high level service salon, cozy, bright and welcoming atmosphere in the heart

of Monte Carlo, because it is the most advantageous location. The second was to make a team to be proud of. All the rest is art. You can be sure not to be late for any event, because your hair, makeup, manicure and pedicure can be done simultaneously. I also clearly understand the nuances of life in Monaco. For this purpose, we have a VIP room where you can escape from the noise and attention, surrendering to harmony and inner beauty.

Dreams come true in Monte Carlo.

What kind of events do you participate in?

Aldo Coppola is a regular participant of fashion shows and collaborates with famous fashion brands such as Giorgio Armani, Valentino, Dior, Calvin Klein, for a reason, we have always positioned ourselves as trendsetters. Twice a year, Aldo Coppola releases new collections of hairstyles, haircuts, hair coloring, and makeup trends. My work is about art, which would simply die without creative experimentation. We know the answer to the question “What will be trendy tomorrow?”

You have incredible energy. What do you need to keep up with the fashion? It is impossible to buy one fashionable handbag and be in trend. Before going out with it, you need to pick the right look, prepare the body, face, and hair. It’s a serious algorithm. Going back to your question, before I will speak about trends, you must be prepared for a long journey, including hair therapy and care in the context of course treatments, the selection of the right products, as well as the consultation with the master. Only in this case you will have a shiny, flowing, sexy hairstyle that requires minimal styling. At Aldo Coppola Monte-Carlo,

many treatments have already become legendary, such as the hair SPA, henna treatments, or our Hair Mineral Relax ampoules, which have conquered and became “must have” for so many our customers.

We are moving forward all the time so the formulas of even the best products are constantly being improved, the lines of haircare products are always renew with new favorites. For maximum comfort for our customers we offer mobile services seven days a week, from Menton to Saint-Tropez.

As for the hair care services, Aldo Coppola brand goes for absolutely natural components of haircare, revitalization and anti-hairloss products consists of henna, essential oils and plants extracts, without parabens or silicones.

Which treatments are the basic?

For example, Mediterranean Complex, an exclusive hair care line. All of its products are based on active ingredients from the Mediterranean region and are rich in precious compounds for the healthy hair. Natural oils, plant and fruit extracts with nourishing and moisturizing properties, mixed with white sugar, enhance the beauty, well-being and vitality of the hair and scalp. I also would like to mention the collagen hair treatment. This is another ‘must have” treatment in Aldo Coppola Monte Carlo. The product penetrates deep into the hair structure and forms a film. After the

treatment, the hair immediately becomes smooth, soft, thicker and more shiny.

What are the hairstyle trends this season?

This year in trend is “messy hair”look. Casual, “shaggy” haircuts and styling looks great on all types of hair. It is important that hairstyle looks very light and hair keep freely falling on the face. Another trendy look is glossy hair! Perfectly smooth, as if sprinkled with liquid glitter. Hairstyle options can be very different, the main rule of the trend is impeccable glossy smoothness. Bob haircut is also very popular. A modern interpretation of the classic bob style is back in trend, it is great for fine hair as it can add texture and volume. Also in trend is hair accessories. I am sure that we will see a lot of accessories on the catwalks: headbands, massive metal chains or hoops, silk elastic bands, hair pins.

What are the make up trends this season?

The major trend is the makeup “no make up”. This is the right solution for every day. The coal-black is not going anywhere this season, whether we’re talking about graphic eyeliner or gray Smokey, it always creates a hypnotic look. Retro is back, classic red lipstick and layered mascara is the best solution for any occasion.

Where is the secret of the perfect look? The secret of perfect looks is behind the doors of Aldo Coppola Monte- Carlo salon. In the heart of Monaco, opposite Casino, next to the major hotels. A great advantage is the time saving you will get the perfect look in 1.5 hours from the leading experts of Aldo Coppola Monte Carlo, who have been working in the parallel services format for many years.

My work is about art, love and creation.

Your first project is international music foundation, how did you arrive to the idea to organise children music competition?

The aim and objectives of the Foundation are based on the principle of helping unprivileged but highly gifted children who can professionally learn how to play an instrument and continue develop their skills through winning a competition called “Golden Note”. The Golden Note Competition became a Huge Classic Show aired on Austrian Television.

My daughter who is also one talented child and plays Piano inspired and motivated me to create the Foundation that will provide Free Classes, Coaching and Training. It is my best interest and desire to help and change the lives of those unique children forever.

You have two tv shows thats been on air for couple of years now (The Golden Note and Stars and Talent Shows) can you tell us more about them?

On the first year of Golden Note Competition I started Piano and Violin then we had Corona virus so we made a considerable significant changes airing the Musicians in the past of Golden Note. The Special Edition of Corona Golden Note had been broadcasted to ORF III Classical Music Channel which was received with great television ratings! From that moment the idea of “Stars and Talent Show was born. Joining forces with Internationally known Classical Music Stars such as Elena Garanca, Erwin Schrott and Roland Villain and a lot more we were able to create very popular and trendy Show!

Golden Note is a competition dedicated to identifying the newest and greatest, unique and gifted children who plays an instrument such as piano, violin, cello, trumpet, clarinet and more. The 9 Finalists will compete in the Finale well chosen from a Jury which consists of University Professors, musical schools or equivalent. This year we added children dancing classical and contemporary art.

The goal of Stars and Talent is to bring young and talented children into musical exchange with internationally famous stars and to create a lasting effect and unique experience. I have launched and, currently working alongside with my Golden Note Musicians for a Concert by bringing Talented Ukranian Young Refugees giving them a chance of a lifetime and also by offering them exceptional learning resources and opportunities.

You are venturing into the world of acting, tell us more about the roles you played in the movie?

Vienna Blood was shown in the New Year where I had a small acting role and, no doubt, this left a great impact in my life. I realise my joy in acting but will see what future holds for me in the World of Acting.

What inspire you to stay always so active and motivated?

I feel super motivated by making others Happy… To see the smile on their face of the things I’ve done. This is the Greatest Joy and an Inspiration to do more.

What the new year has in store for you?

I have a lot of projects ahead, such performances and concerts to develop further my foundation. AND… I have a lot more plans in a movie industry this year. I will play in a Czech Movie apart of other projects of mine.

PRESTIGE AND LA FEE TUTU SKIRTS FOR MOMS AND DAUGHTERS.

The TUTU PRESTIGE brand was cr eated in 2018, four years after the founding of LA FEE TUTU. The story began with Stéphanie Saulig, who was not a seamstress or designer at the time, creating skirts for her daughter who dreamed of “Princess” dresses. After getting incredible satisfaction from the work she did, Stéphanie eventually decided to leave her job in an asset management firm and dedicate herself entirely to creating tulle skirts for children. Working in collaboration with a professional photographer who increased the brand’s fame thanks to photo sessions with newborns and children, the designer quickly acquired a wide customer base and created her own company LA FEE TUTU. Over time, it was a pleasant decision to create a second brand TUTU PRESTIGE for tulle skirts for moms. The “mom and daughter” trend is very current in the fashion world today, and is always appreciated during celebrations and festivities.

The TutuDress tulle skirts from TUTU PRESTIGE and LA FEE TUTU, are developed and handmade according to the American technique, which are tightened around the waist with a grosgrain ribbon, which is convenient for any size.

The collection is presented:

CITY length 40 cm

ÉLÉGANCE length 60/70 cm

EVENING length 95 cm

MAJESTIC length 200 cm and more

The tutu skirt today is intended not only for little girls and dances, now they are worn at galas, celebrities, during events as a unique and personalized thing, and even with sneakers. Not so long ago, the TUTU MAJESTIC skirt was also worn by the famous Swedish top model Victoria Silvstedt for an English glossy magazine. The MAJESTIC skirt could also be seen on the Cannes red carpet, and for the 2023 season this model was created in a greater variety of colors. If you want to amaze the Cannes red carpet, it’s time to order yourself a TUTU PRESTIGE skirt.

Olla, your carier growth over the last few years is impressive, tell us more about your new achievements

The past year was incredibly productive. First of all, my team and I have written and produced a number of great songs which I started releasing this year. We were experimenting a lot with various sounds, ethnic instruments, production and vocal techniques to make each song sound special, different and memorable.

Secondly, a lot of work has been done for the visual content that I release along with my music. I have had numerous video shoots in different countries. It’s important for me that every small detail of the video conveys the atmosphere and the vibe of the song. So I’m always picky about the locations, styles and actors.

With each new song and video, I was trying to push myself to a new level of expression for my music to bring some meaningful insights to the audience, and to also tell something about myself as a human being.

What is your inspiration?

Despite on the tough schedule full of studio sessions, shoots, vocal classes, and many other activities, I have been traveling a lot recently. Discovering new places and cultures is one of my main sources of inspiration. Getting to know people of a different historical background is an adventure that broadens my imagination and always teaches me something new. Most of the songs which I wrote, came to me in my travels, especially when I travel with people I love. Love is definitely something that stimulates me. Its electrifying power cultivated many ideas which together with my team I turn into songs.

Tell us about your latest achievements?

This year I have already released 2 songs. The latest single is called “Prana”. The title comes from the yogic teaching, that I am very fond of, and is translated from Sanskrit as “life force energy” or “breath of life”. This song is an incredibly romantic, calming and meditative piece that portrays love as a great source of energy and power.

My next single “Weightless” will be released on the 5th of May along with a music video. This track is quite different from what I’ve released before. It was inspired by the Italian disco music, and I believe we managed to make it very dynamic and groovy. As always we have recorded lots of live instruments, as well as experimented with various sounds to achieve a unique blend of a nostalgic sound with a modern touch. The music video is also a very artistic piece with its own style and mood. I am super excited about the song and I am looking forward to sharing it with all of you on the 5th of May.

Are we gonna listen to your new album soon?

I am to release more singles in the nearest future. And at the same time I am working on my album, that will embody all of my ideas and thoughts about life and love. As I was always a big fan of psychology, I would love to encrypt my knowledge of the subject into the music. So it won’t be just a beautiful art piece, but a set of meaningful thoughts talking about the essentials of life.

Discovering new places and cultures is one of my main sources of inspiration.
