Beginning, but already successful photo and top model, a permanent participant of fashion and beauty-shootings  - Vaseneva Maria. She knows everything about the price of success and never stops at what she has achieved, boldly turning her wishes into goals. Talent and the desire for everything new gave her the opportunity to conquer the audience and the jury, having won the main title MISS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN RUSSIA 2017 and the first place in the Top 20 Russian Model Awards. Russian beauty with an impeccable figure and a kind heart tells MODNY DOM magazine about her ambitions, dreams, and of course, the last contest.

I was worthy of victory, even though it was quite difficult for me to do. There was a tense competition in the contest. Participants were from different cities of Russia, the Near Abroad, Europe, different nationalities, appearance, growth - all the beginning models, and all in their own way are beautiful, attractive and talented. Initially, I was doubted whether to take part in this contest at all. But the desire to win overpowered me, I decided to participate, and I did my best to become the first!

Yes, this is really my first beauty contest. Moreover, I never thought about taking part in such events, let alone imagine myself as a model. I have often heard from friends about their attractive appearance. Usually, the surrounding people had questions about why I’m still not in the modeling business. And one day I asked myself this question - really, why not?! Since then, I began to prepare intensively and, for now, WIN, which only gives me new strength.

Of course, first of all, I want to thank the organizers of the contest and the jury for the opportunity to show and test myself. Well, undoubtedly those who supported me. Without the strength and faith of these people, I would not have risen on a pedestal. Regarding the crown - I know for sure that I deserve it! I worked very hard and put a part of myself into this project.

I was a very active and progressive child in school. I studied well, attended all kinds of dancing, fencing, embroidery lessons, classes of young masters (I saw there with an instrument and then burned patterns on the cut out details). I also participated in various contests, olympiads, I have different diplomas, certificates, letters of thanks, medals, etc. In one word, there was almost no time left for free.

In the modeling business, I’m more likely a beginner. I always liked to take pictures, and I think I’m very good at it. As for me, the parameters and external data are all very individual, despite the established canons. Achieve success - it is possible, if you work hard. Indeed, do not sit on the couch and wait until something happens and you are lucky! And go to work on yourself, learn, develop, and so on. And everything will come out for sure! It is necessary to believe in it!

You will not believe, but I’m dreaming about the banal - comfort, love and be loved. I believe that everything will be as it should be. After all, as they say: «we suppose, but God disposes». Like any girl, I want a strong relationship. And now my heart is free.

In my opinion, in any case, the family should always be on the first place. But at this stage I am engaged in personal growth and development of my career in modeling. There are so many grandiose plans. But if there was a choice, priorities for me are obvious.

Like many girls, I can think about this for hours. But if you do not create illusions, you can like an honest man, purposeful, successful and with a good heart. A man who can surprise with the mind and vital position, but the way he can manifest himself depends on his imagination. But every woman likes surprises (smiles). Do not drown in illusions and be mistaken in them. Everyone has both minuses and pluses. Just when a person is in love or there is sympathy, the minuses become also pluses. I, in my turn, knowing myself, will give much more in return.

I want to say that it’s not easy to support yourself in a beautiful form! Yes, I have a good genetic predisposition, but this is not enough. To say that I’m on diets - do not say anything! I can afford to eat everything, and even often abuse sweet ones (laughs). The only thing - I do not like fatty, fried, soda, juice and so on. I never loved, even in my childhood. Perhaps the parents affected, not allowing me to eat fast food and other tasteless food. For this they are very grateful, since now I do not feel any weight from diets. I do not understand girls who starve for months, and then break up! Now there are many procedures to keep yourself in shape, and no one canceled the gym. Everything should be in moderation! We must live in harmony with ourselves and with our body.

I can say with confidence that I am not a supporter of plastic surgery. But to judge those who nevertheless have laid down under a knife of the surgeon - I won’t begin. It is the conscious choice of everyone. I hardly myself will do similar mockeries above the body. In itself, everything suits me, I have a neat figure, quite a pretty face, I do not need it. Very good genes, so even at an age, I will be a beautiful lady. I’m for naturalness in everything.

I think a lot about the future. I do not know how my life will turn out. But I know that I want to travel a lot, learn a lot of new things, communicate with interesting people. Fully formed as a person. At the moment, I do not think that I am successed as a model, and as a person, because I’m quite young. Yes, there are interests and hobbies, but this is not enough. But I already understand what I want and I know where I’m going! The main thing is not to lose heart, not to get sick, to smile more often, that relatives and friends are healthy-this is happiness!

Many girls have dreamt to become a model, someone is still dreaming about this star profession. Not everyone knows how hard it is, how much time and effort it takes. Elizaveta, a promising 20-year-old model, shared with us details of her career and creative life, who, despite her age, has great work experience behind her. After about 4 years, she worked as a model in Asia with world and famous companies. Having managed to build a successful model career, Elizabeth came back to her homeland. The model shared her experience, told about the difficulties of working in another country, as well as plans, specifically for MODNY DOM MAGAZINE.

It was a huge challenge for me. On the one hand, the desire will plunge into the world of another country, and on the other - the fear of forthcoming changes, adaptation to the peculiarities of the new place. But none of the reasons could not be a significant obstacle to my choice. A busy schedule, frequent travel was a bit difficult to bear initially. Now I am used to it. Honestly, it seems to me that even for a long trip, I can collect a suitcase in 15 minutes (laughs). I knew that it would not be easy. It is thanks to the first foreign contracts, I very early became independent, which is certainly an advantage. As for another culture, it’s always interesting for me to learn something new. People in every country have different mentality, which has to adapt, but it gives an indispensable life experience.

Another country is not only a completely different atmosphere, but also a different language. Fortunately, I speak English well enough. But for many girls this is a problem. You also need to be ready for this job. It is not only fashionable dresses and presence at various events, but also great work and work on oneself.

Today, the Russian model world is developing rapidly and in fact not so long ago, models could only dream of going abroad. The number of Slavic representatives on the catwalks of the world increases every year. Honestly, I cannot imagine that I would become one of them and leave my native country. But for the sake of interest I decided to go to the casting, where I noticed a fairly large Model Agency. So began my first work. And already at the age of 14 years a contract was signed with a foreign agency.

After active 6 years of work abroad, I realized that
I missed my native country. So at the moment, I’m very happy to be back. Of course, I would like to continue modeling, because this is an integral part of my life, and I am not going to stop there. Now is the time to discover the fashion industry in your home country. But at the same time I will have to combine modeling with study, which is also important at this stage.

I am a very versatile person, I try myself in different directions. Since childhood, I have been fond of painting and always happy to spend my time with brushes and paints. Knowledge of foreign languages is must have today, that is why I actively continue studying outside the country. I want to finish learning Chinese. Quite recently, I had an idea was to try myself in the theatrical sphere.

There are many plans for the future. I would like to continue to travel and visit places where I have not been. I also have one dream, to continue developing my painting talent and, perhaps one day, I will have an audience that will interest my work.

I take a great interest in family values. So I will protect the home with all my might. I’m not in a hurry to get married, as I would like to get married once and for all. It seems to me that a woman should be able to find time for both her family and her favorite business. Now it is not a problem to combine these two concepts.

No sport anywhere! I used to do dances. Now I just support the figure in the gym. Unfortunately, because of frequently travel, it is not always possible to train on a schedule. But at the first opportunity, I’m flying straight to the hall. Extreme sports - this is my passion. Always admired the people who are engaged in it. I dream of learning how to snowboard.
