Anica Vuckovick

NAME: Anica Vuckovick

AGE: 28

POSITION
Moda Model Management agency director

MY CHILDHOOD DREAM JOB
Pop singer

MY FIRST JOB
Project manager at an advertising agency

MY BIG BREAK
Going from being model on the books at Moda to taking a job on the management team five years ago. I now run every aspect of the agency and enjoy it immensely

MY BIGGEST RISK
I am a trained psychologist and taking the decision to enter the fashion industry and leave it all behind was a risk, but it was definitely a risk worth taking and has paid off. I love my job and the industry, it is highly competitive but very challenging and no two days are the same. It is a great feeling scouting young talent from the streets and turning them into editorial and runway models

MY PROUDEST MOMENT
Getting two honours degrees at university - one in Italian and one in psychology

MY BIGGEST REGRET
I have no regrets. My motto is: "Forget regret or life is yours to miss."

MY BIGGEST FASHION FAUX PAS
MC hammer pants. What was I thinking? In my defence I was only 13...

MY MENTOR
My father. He is a very intelligent man and he is a fighter

IF I COULD DO IT OVER
I wouldn't change a thing

IF I WASN'T IN FASHION I'D BE
A psychologist

MY IDEA THAT NEVER TOOK OFF
I always thought that the fashion industry should have a casting website, something similar to Showcast in the acting world

IN MY SPARE TIME I
As every other fashion victim, I love to shop

PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO KNOW I
Am a fully trained opera singer

I WANT MY EPITAPH TO SAY
I did what I believed in, I was inspired by love
