Proglešeni ste za Miss Fashion Global 2022! Da li možete da nam opišete osećaj koji ste imali kada ste dobili to priznanje?
Bilas am neopisivo srećna što je neko prepoznao moju lepotu i intelekt. Jedan od najuzbudljivijih trenutaka u mom životu je bio kada sam čula svoje ime u sali punoj ljudi i paparaca. Velika je čast da kazakstanska lepota bude prepoznata u svetu i da sam ja baš njen predstavnik! Verujem da će lepota spasiti svet.
Koji odevni komad svaka žena mora da poseduje i zašto?
Malu crnu haljinu koja je sjajna kako za žurke tako i za večere. Suknja olovka kroja i Pantalone ravnog kroja, oba komada se savršeno uklapaju uz sve i čine da figura izgleda dovoljno seksi. I naravno, salonke. Možda najženstvenije cipele. One bukvalno idu uz svaki stajling, i već godinama unazad su aktuelne.
Štikle ili ravno?
Štikle. “Dajte devojci prave cipele i ona može osvojiti ceo svet” – Marilyn Monroe.
Da li imate neku posebnu tajnu što se tiče nege kože?
Moja tajna je prilično jednostavna. Prvo je pozitivan i zdrav život pre svega, a zatim hidratacija (voda sa limunom mi je najdraža), i naravno veliki osmeh tokom čitavog dana.
Bez koje tri stvari ne napuštate kuću?
Crveni ruž, airpods i pogled u ogledalo.
Znamo da ste učestvovali u mnogim sportskim maratonima. Koliko vremena vam je potrebno da biste se pripremili za tako nešto? Da li imate neki poseban trening?
Da, obožavam maratone zbog njihove dinamike. Izazovi su kako mentalni tako i fizički, u čemu posebno uživam. Svake nedelje treniram sa svojim trkačkim timom.
Vi ste osoba koja se bavi modom. Da li nam možete reći koji trend biste voleli da ostane zauvek, a koji biste zabranili?
Obožavam “klasičnu ženstvenost” koju su propagirali Chanel, Dior, Saint Laurent i Zimmerman koji su uvek klasični na savremeni način – Elegancija je poput otvorenog neba, opuštena, tačna, sa karminom u boji i svilenkastom kožom. Balenciaga je brend koji mi nije primamljiv zato što njihove kampanje promovišu ružnoću i jednostavno ne rezonuju sa mojim viđenjem lepote.
Karmin ili sjaj?
Oba. Uvek imam oba u svojoj torbi. Sjaj je tu za misteriozne i koketne slie, dok je karmin glavni aksesoar za flert.
Šta je za Vas ženstvenost?
To je nežnost i moć koje su spojene u jedno. Kao kada prelepo cveće raste graciozno svom svojom snagom. Ženstvenost može da vam olakša život, ali nažalost mnoge žene su zaboravile na ovu super moć. U mojoj kulturi, esencija žene je njena ženstvenost i izvor njene snage.
Gde vidite sebe za pet godina?
Palm Beach – Ženeva – Monako.
Kvalitetan i luksuzan život, sa evropskom klasom i lepotom.

Aika Iskakova: Through feminine looking glass
Model, Miss Fashion Global, and a girl who loves running marathons, in special digiral cover issue for Harper’s Bazaar Serbia September issue tells us what is the key piece every woman should have, what is her beauty routine and what are three things that she can’t leave her house without!
You were Miss Fashion Global 2022! Can you share what was the feeling when they represented you with such an honor?
I was extremely happy that they appreciated my beauty and my intellect. One of the most exciting moments in life is when you hear your name called as the winner in a hall full of people and the paparazzi. It is such an honor to have Kazakh beauty recognized as world class and I am the representative! I believe that “Beauty will save the world.
What is the garment that every woman should have in her wardrobe? And why?
A little black dress looks great both at parties and a date. A pencil skirt and straight-cut trousers harmoniously combined with another wardrobe item. It shows your figure sexy. And of course classic pumps shoes. Perhaps the most feminine shoes. These simple elegant shoes fit almost any look, they have not lost their relevance in a few decades.
Heels or flats?
Heels. “Give the girl the right shoes and she can conquer the whole world” – Marilyn Monroe.
Do you have any special beauty routine secret for flawless skin?
My secret beauty routine is very basic. I start with a healthy positive lifestyle, then hydration (lemon water is my favorite), and of course a big smile throughout the day.
What are three things that you can leave your house without?
Red lipstick. Airpods, a quick look on the mirror with positive affirmation
We know that you are participating in sports marathons. How long you need to prepare for such an activity? Do you have some special workout routine for it?
Yes, I love marathons for the dynamic energy and vibe. The challenge is as much mental as physical which I enjoy. Right. So I run off a week with my team.
You are a fashion person, and you love fashion. Can you tell us, which trend you love and whish to stay forever, and which one you would forbid for good?
I favor the “classic feminine” style of Chanel, Dior and YSL, Zimmerman which are always fashionable with contemporary twists. Elegant as the open sky but relaxed, punctuated with colorful lipstick and silky skin. Balenciaga is a brand that does not appeal to me as their campaign stresses ugliness and other themes which don’t resonate with my visions of beauty.
Lip gloss or lipstick?
Both. Lip gloss allows you to create mischievously and coquette images. Lipstick can perform several functions, including as an accessory for flirting.
What is femininity to you?
Femininity is softness and power embodied at the same time. It feels like beautiful flowers growing gracefully with strength and charm. Femininity could make life easier for many women, but unfortunately many women have forgotten to use this unique special force. In my eastern culture, this essential feminine strength is a fundamental part of life.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Palm Beach- Geneva- Monaco. For quality and luxurious lifestyle, with European class and chic.
