Third Time’s The Charm
Inna,Age: 34,Home: Flushing,Height: 5’ 11",Weight: 125 lbs,Stats: 34-27-38.
For Inna, the jump into modeling has come a bit later in life than for most. At 34 years old, she knows that she’s up against tough odds, but she’s just looking to have some fun and make a few bucks on the side.A licensed clinical aesthetician, Inna has been told by many that she’s got the right look for runway.
“I always wanted to try,” she said. “Everywhere I go I always hear, ‘Are you a model,’ or ‘you should be a model.’”So she has since set out on building her portfolio and looking for offers.A native to Brooklyn’s Brighton Beach, Inna has lived in Flushing for the last five years.“It’s a big difference living in Queens,” she said. “There’s more air; it’s just bigger to me.”
Living close-by to the Queens Botanical Garden, she loves heading over with her 7-year-old daughter and enjoying the serenity the garden offers.Her job keeps her pretty busy, seeing clients in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens. And she has tried to get her foot in the door modeling twice before – but figures this time around, the third time’s the charm.“I’m not taking it too seriously,” she said. “It’s not like I’m building a career.”
In her downtime, Inna is a bit more conservative than some of her fellow models might be.“I’m not 19 years old, I’m not really a nightclub person,” she said. “Sometimes I love to go to a club and relax, but mostly I spend my free time playing tennis. I also like nature, to love to just take a walk outside.”
