Zdravo Kim i dobrodošli u Harper’s Bazaar, recite nam nešto o Vašoj karijeri modela. Šta je najinteresantnija stvar u Vašoj profesiji?

Moja karijera modela me je blagoslovila na mnogo načina. Dozvolila mi je da spojim svoju strast, modu, glamur, putovanje i da upoznam mnoge ljude koji su pravi umetnici u svom poslu. Moj san, još otkako sam bila mala je bio da utičem na ljude uz pomoć svoje vizije i to što imam priliku da to radim svaki dan je veoma ispunjujuće.

Da li možete da nam kažete nešto o saradnjama koje ste ostvarili? Koja Vam je ostala kao najupamćenija? Koja su vaša najživopisnija sećanja?

Sarađivala sam sa Diorom i fotografom Michaelom Avedonom. Svako iskustvo je bilo veoma posebno za mene. Naučila sam mnogo o tome šta oni rade i zašto stoje iza svog rada i to je pomoglo da svako iskstvo koje sam imala bude iskustvo za pamćenje.

Takođe ste i uspešna preduzetnica. Recite nam nešto o vašoj beauty liniji?

Radila sam sa ljudima širom sveta koji su veoma posvećeni nezi kože. Moja kompanija nudi usluge kao što su MedSpas i kozmetičke proizvode koje želim da poboljšam uz pomoć tehnologije, kao što je terapija LED svetlima. Direktorka sam Zero Gravity Skina, koji ima veliki uticaj na beauty industriju. Nudimo sigurne i efikasne tretmane za telo, lice i kosu koji su zasnovani na medicini.

Da li je teško biti lepa žena u ozbiljnom biznisu?

Ako govorimo o realnosti, mislim da biti lepa žena u biznisu dolazi sa određenom cenom bez obzira u kojoj sferi radite. Ponekad vaš rad i trud mogu biti potcenjeni i to iako nije prijatno mi daje poseban nagon i motivaciju da postanem jača i bolja verzija sebe.

Vi ste inspiracija ženama širom sveta. Šta Vas inspiriše?

Mene inspiriše to što imam sposobnost da izgradim onakav život kakav sam zamišljala dok sam utabavala stazu ostalim ženama preduzetnicama. Takođe sam veoma ponosna što sam uspela sama bez da sam se oslanjala na bilo koga kako bi dao svrhu mom životu.

Šta je vaš primarni cilj? Kako ste izgradili svoj biznis? Kako izgleda vaša idealna poslovna prilika?

Moj primarni cilj je bio taj da izgradim finansijsku stabilnost kako za sebe tako i za posao kojim se bavim. Gradila sam svoj biznis tako što sam se okružila sa ljudima koji su delili moju strast i ciljeve, koji su rizikovali i koji su mi uvek pomagali da izađem iz svoje zone komfora. Biti svoj šef znači da morate žrtvovati mnogo toga. Često sam se susretala sa teškim periodima kada na primer nešto što sam želela ili zamislila ljudi nisu ni uzeli u razmatranje. Veoma je naporno raditii i nije uvek sve sjajno i bajno. Moja idelana poslovna prilika je ona koja se zalaže za žene i koja stoji iza onoga u šta veruje.

Da li sebe smatrate povučenom osobom?

Da, veoma sam povučena i delim sa ljudima samo ono što želim.

Da li imate neke dugoročne ciljeve i čemu težite?

Težim tome da izgradim život na koji ću biti ponosna i na koji ću moći da se osvrnem bez ikakvih žaljenja. Vidim sebe u srećnom domu sa porodicom, to je krajnji cilj.

Ljudi Vas često viđaju na crvenom tepihu širom sveta. Recite nam nešto o Vašem putu u Kan?

Moj put u Kan je bio sve ono što sam zamišljala. Bilo je puno uzbudljivih trenutaka ali ne onakvih kakvim se ljudi nadaju kada gledaju društvene mreže. Ono što se dešava iza scene je stvarno neverovatno. Od presvlačenja, pa preko menjanja šminke, frizura i mesta. Svaki put kad se prisetim toga izmami mi se osmeh na lice. To je definitivno nešto što bih svima poželela da iskuse.

Koje trenutke ćete zauvek pamtiti?

Mislim da su to odnosi koje sam izgradila sa ljudima širom sveta. Mesta koja sam posetila i na kojima sam naučila da ponekad moram da preduzmem rizik.

Šta biste rekli našim čitateljkama, kako da postanu samostalne žene kao što ste Vi?

Savet koji bih dala pre svega je da nikada ne sumnjaju u sebe jer nikada ne znaju da li će se nešto dogoditi ako ne probaju. Naučila sam da prilike koje sam imala neće doći dva puta u životu i da je zato najbolje iskoristiti ih. Okružite se sa ljudima koji vas teraju da se osećate da možete da uradite sve i da ništa ne uzimate zdravo za gotovo. Najvažnije je da nikada ne izgubite iz vida ono što vam je važno.

Kim Sananes: La Fashionista

Woman who’s beauty leaves no one indifferent, Kim Sananes, in an interview with Harper’s Bazzar whose face is on the digital cover, reveals what her career as a model looks like, how difficult it is to be a beautiful woman in business, but also what moments from her career she will remember forever. Meet Kim Sananes.

Hello Kim, welcome to Harpe’s Bazaar Serbia, tell us about your modeling career. What is the most interesting things on your profession? 

My modeling career has blessed me with opportunities that have allowed me to blend my passion for fashion, glam, traveling and meeting all kinds of artistic people along the way. My dream since being a child has been to influence others through my vision and I get to do that everyday so it’s really fulfilling. 

Tell us who you collaborated with? What collaboration do you remember the most? What are your most vivid memories?

I have collaborated with Dior, with photographer Michael Avedon, each experience has been incredibly eye opening and truly one of a kind. Learning about what they stand behind and what they’re about has made each experience so memorable.

You also successful entrepreneur. Tell us about your beauty line?

I work globally alongside collaborators who share a passion for innovative skincare. My company offers services to places like MedSpas and cosmetic offices that want to expand their skincare services with the use of technology, such as LED Light Therapy. I am the director of Zero Gravity Skin, who’s had a huge impact in the beauty industry. They offer safe and effective treatments for body, face and hair backed by medical science.

It’s hard to be beautiful woman in serious business ? 

Realistically speaking, I think being a working “beautiful woman” comes with a price no matter what line of work you’re involved in, at times your capabilities and efforts can be underestimated and undermined, and while being tested isn’t fun, it motivates me to become a stronger, better version of myself. 

You are an inspiration to women all over the world. What inspires you?

What inspires me is the ability to build the life I envisioned for myself, while paving the way for like-minded women entrepreneurs. To become independent in every sense without relying on anyone else to give your life true meaning and purpose. 

What was your first focus? How did you build your business? What does your ideal business opportunity look like?

My first focus was to financially stabilize myself doing what I love most. I built my business by surrounding myself with individuals who shared the same passion and goal, taking risks, and always stepping out of my comfort zone. Being your own boss means sacrificing a lot. I often faced hard times going after what I wanted and I think that is something people might not take into consideration. It’s a lot of hard work and it’s not always sunshine and butterflies. My ideal business opportunity is one that advocates for women and that stands behind what I believe in.

Do you consider yourself a private person? 

Yes I’m a private person I share only what I want too.

Do you have a long-term goal that you are striving for?

To build a life I am proud of, and one I can look back at with no regrets. I see myself residing in a happy home with my family, that’s the end goal.

People can see you on red carpets on the most famous events all over the world. Tell us about your trip to Cannes?

My trip to Cannes was everything I had hoped for, full of exhilarating moments but definitely not what most people think happens when they see social media posts. The behind the scenes of it all was fast paced and got pretty overwhelming, from outfit changes to different makeup looks,  hair styles and different sceneries. I was left with unforgettable memories that bring a smile to my face when I reminisce. Something I wish more people could experience.

What are the most unforgettable memories and impressions?

I think it would have to be the connections I’ve made with people all over the world. The places I have been to and the things I’ve learned that I would have in no way been able to had I not been such a risk taker.

What will be your recommendations for our readers. How to became self made women like you ?

The advice I’d give is to never doubt yourself, you’ll never know what could be if you don’t try. I’ve learned that the opportunities I’ve had don’t come twice in life so you better take it. Surround yourself with people that make you feel like you can do anything and never take anything or anyone for granted. Most importantly, never lose sight of what is important to you!
