Through Bloom Where You Are Planted, a project featuring models and talent selected via our Model Search, we wanted to show young people, that despite having to deal with adversities such as the Covid pandemic we can still all bloom and the key to this, is our connection to nature and our environment. Let’s flood social media with flowers, colour, and happiness!! #jrstylebloomwhereyouareplanted

Which modeling agency are you represented by? Casting Kids & Santangelo Studios Napoli
Why did you decide to start modeling? For fun, I like it, I have fun, and then I like to see myself in the photos.
What is the best part about being a model? Being able to wear lots of fantastic clothes. I like having my photo taken and working with other models on shoots.
Which has been your favourite shoot to date? Every shoot is a favorite. There is always something magical every time. I had a lot of fun with my latest project on newsstands for Style Piccoli.
Could you give us a rough guide to the modeling work you have participated in so far and any other achievements outside of modeling etc? I started my adventure with a commercial for an English television network campaign for Lelli Kelly, and I also was involved in the photo shoot for the catalog. I worked on a campaign for Coconudina. I was also chosen as a model for Junior Style London. I campaigned for Vicolo Girl and a video presentation for Original Marines. I walked the runway for Trussardi Junior and worked on the catalog for Shein. I did a photo shoot for Style Piccoli magazine.
Which is your top fashion magazine/blog? I generally like to browse fashion magazines, such as Vanity Faire, Elle, and especially Style Piccoli.
What is your favourite item in your closet? I prefer dresses and I love jeans.
Who is your role model? I like to admire people older than me, but the people I admire who I take as a model are definitely my grandmother and my mother, and an Aunt in particular who I consider very fashionable, Aunt Clara.
What are your favourite subjects at school? I love Italian and history.
Do you speak any languages? For the moment I speak a little English that I study at school, but my plans are certainly intended to improve my English and learn Swedish since I have Swedish origins.
Are you also taking classes in dance, singing, or sport? I love Artistic gymnastics and I also take music and dance classes. I can draw, dance, sing, and roller-skate, and I love telling jokes because I like to make people laugh.
If you could have 3 wishes, what would they be? An infinite life for everyone, I would never want to lose the people I care about. Peace in the world. I would like a world without pollution
If you could meet anyone in the world who would it be? Right now, Putin, I would ask him to stop the war.
What is your biggest dream? To always have my family and loved ones by my side.
What do you like to do in your spare time? I like to draw, I love to go out and be with my friends, to read a book.
