Mumbai-based model, Tamara Mosswith her suave and sultry image hascreated a wave in the modelling circuit. Be it the much talked about'Kingfisher Calendar'or the recent 'Provogue' campaigns, you can notbut notice her everywhere! She is quite often seen on fashion runwaysin New York, Milan, Paris and India. Bolly wood is not too far away forthis leggy lass! In a Stylekandy.com exclusive, this Indo-Dutch beautyenlists the other priorities of life The start. It began in Bangalore 3years ago, when Anil a Anand began sending out my Polaroids. I did manyinteresting shoots with her and Prabuddho Das Gupta. however thefashion scene at the time was largely unprofessional with con jobself-proclaimed co-ordinators making work most unpleasant for buddingtalent. Show fees were not paid on time, in the case of Ramesh Dembla,a so-called designer and social butterfly, show fees were not paid atall! Then While in Bangalore I met the lovely Rashmi Virmani, whoconvinced me to sign on with her Delhi based agency called 'The Ramp',which was a bit of a joke. On numerous occasions I was speaking withthe client directly to negotiate my rates from which her agency woulddemand a percentage, although I had done the collaborative work.
Lakhs of rupees were held and cheques bounced until I completely lostit with their lack of ethics and stopped working with them altogether!Now Eventually, I saw that I had to move to Mumbai to continue aprofessional career with a well-established agency. I have been withAtul Kasbekar' sagency Bling for over a year now and am thrilled towork with managers who have their finger on the pulse of fashion andcommercial work in India. You need both! The best thing about being amodel. The international travel and highly creative professionals Iwork with. Fashion to me means good fit, quality design and a bit ofeclecticism.

Cindy Crawford work outs, yoga and lots of love! Walking on the ramp orposing for print ads, more appealing and why Shoots are more work andtherefore more interesting, but if it's a well choreographed show withamazing clothes and beautiful make-up and hair styling then a show anyday! What's your take on the famous dialogue 'models are used ashangers'. If only it was that easy! Obviously the scriptwriter knowsnothing about the amount of work which goes into modelling as a career,or was just trying to make some metaphorical or character revealingpoint. Right look or Right attitude Neither. Be yourself! People in theindustry are mature enough to know that you are young and fallible.Designer you admire. I love Rajesh Pratap Singh, for the fit andbecause the clothes channel androgynous effortlessly. I like to tear upand re-design my own clothes. Coping with the pressure Insecurities area waste of time, and it's my bevy of stunning friends from all fieldsof work who inspire me to excellence. Bitchiness bores me to death andI have consciously removed myself from the envious gossipy types whohave nothing better to do than sit around and talk shit all day. Butthese are few and far between. I wholly enjoy my work and full life,that’s why I do it! Any secret of yours I want to make the firstskydiving club in India.
