q&a
Name: Victor Debiais
Agency: Nathalie Models
Hometown: Paris, France
Introduce yourself briefly: I’m Victor from Nathalie Models, I’m 19 and French. I’ve been modeling since 2 months. I’m still studying in law university based in Paris in order to become a lawyer. In the same way I practice basketball to remain in a good shape.
What benefits do you get out of modelling? Modeling is a great experience, I met a lot of amazing people on shootings – some of them became friends. Waiting during shootings isn’t that long, I always have fun with other models and never get bored, and that is important for me. I’m still discovering the crazy world of fashion thanks to the modeling, that’s definitely an another world, and I do appreciate it! And modeling is very good way to get self-confident, for a career in business as I want, that is a good point for me!
Your definition of happiness: Happiness is very difficult to define and it’s definition differs for everyone. For me, happiness is a way of living, not a goal to reach. You don’t have to pursue the happiness, just live your life as you intend to, make the choices you want to make deep inside you, just don’t care about how people can see you or judge you, live your days as if the world could collapse the day after. Happiness is a succession of little random things that happened to you every day and make you smile, the point is that you just have to reckon and enjoy them!

I met him at H&M, I gave him my card, he called me back 6 months later! A
very serious guy, with big potential, the one to follow.
