A model has gone from cleaner to the catwalk after an international agency took a shine to her looks.
有一位女清潔工的長(zhǎng)相被國(guó)際模特公司看中了,于是她搖身一變成為一名美麗的模特。
Aleksandra Naranowicz, 27, struggled to find work after moving to England from Poland despite an impressive CV and a masters degree.
亞歷山德拉今年27歲,雖然她碩士畢業(yè)、簡(jiǎn)歷令人印象深刻,但當(dāng)初她從波蘭來(lái)到英國(guó)找工作卻屢屢碰壁。
She made ends meet with a modest £250-a-week job as a cleaner - but her luck changed when one of her clients referred her to a London modelling agent.
終于她找到了一份清潔工作,憑著每星期250英鎊的微薄收入勉強(qiáng)維持生活。但是在客戶把她推薦到一家倫敦模特公司之后,她的命運(yùn)徹底改變了。
They told Aleksandra she had the figure and looks of a model and the six-foot cleaner soon left her mop behind.
他們告訴亞歷山德拉,她擁有模特潛質(zhì)的身材和長(zhǎng)相。于是這位身高6英尺(約1.82米)的清潔工很快就丟掉拖把奔赴新的前程。
She has already starred in a string of adverts and catwalk shows and is earning up to £2,000 a shoot.
她已經(jīng)成為一系列廣告和走秀新星,出場(chǎng)費(fèi)達(dá)2000英鎊。
Aleksandra said: 'People said I had a pretty face and that I’d be good as a model. This gave me the confidence to meet modelling agencies in London.
亞歷山德拉說(shuō):“人們說(shuō)我擁有美麗的臉龐,所以我一定會(huì)是個(gè)好模特的。這些話給了我面試倫敦模特公司的信心?!?/div>
Aleksandra left Poland with a Masters degree in Pedagogy - the science and art of education - and moved to Bristol.
亞歷山德拉在波蘭拿到了教育學(xué)的碩士學(xué)位,研讀教育科學(xué)和藝術(shù)的她畢業(yè)后來(lái)到了英國(guó)布里斯托爾市。
She took a job with local cleaning firm Mopp and one of her clients, a retired media mogul, told her ‘with bone structure like that you should be on a catwalk not cleaning my kitchen floor’.
她在當(dāng)?shù)乇嵐綧opp找到了一份保潔工作。她的一位客戶是退休的媒體大亨,這位客戶告訴她“你骨子里就是當(dāng)模特的,而不應(yīng)該在這兒給我擦廚房地板?!?/div>
She spent the next few months working as a cleaner to save the money to go to castings in London and was signed up by PRM, a leading model management company.
在接下來(lái)的幾個(gè)月中,她努力做清潔工的工作以攢錢(qián)參加倫敦的模特選拔。接著她就與一家一流的模特管理公司簽約了。
She now works as a full-time model and has done countless shoots, specialising in hair magazines and adverts.
她現(xiàn)在是全職模特,并且已經(jīng)擔(dān)任了無(wú)數(shù)場(chǎng)模特、尤擅長(zhǎng)出任美發(fā)雜志和廣告大片中的模特。
Mopp founder Pete Dowds said: 'We’re delighted to have been a part of helping Aleksandra with her career.
Mopp公司創(chuàng)始人皮特說(shuō)道:“我們很高興能在亞歷山德拉的職場(chǎng)飛躍中助她一臂之力。”
'She was a brilliant addition to Mopp’s Bristol cleaning team so we’re sorry to lose her but no doubt she’ll "clean up" in the fashion world in no time.'
“她是Mopp公司在布里斯托爾市的杰出員工,很遺憾我們失去了這個(gè)人才。但是毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),她將很快在時(shí)尚界大放異彩。”
