How have you managed to balance your career as a model and content creator with motherhood?
-I threw myself wholeheartedly into motherhood during the first months of my daughter’s life, savoring every little milestone and magical moment. Now that she’s 9 months old, you’ve caught me at an exciting turning point as I begin to dive back into my career. Recently, I’ve had shoots where my daughter and I were in the frame together, and after 10 years of modeling, it’s an incredible feeling to share that experience with her. Beyond that, I’ve been filming her for kids brands as a content creator, and working alongside her is such a sweet and rewarding experience. I’m more inspired than ever, with bold plans and exciting new projects on the horizon. Motherhood and my career are flowing together in this new chapter. But if you ask me again later, I’m sure the story will only get more interesting!
Where do you find inspiration to create your Instagram content? Do you have a content creation routine?
- Honestly, I don’t have a strict routine right now! I go with the flow, finding inspiration in my baby Vanessa and the pure beauty of creating life. Watching her explore the world with such innocence helps me see the beauty in everything. However, as collaborations and content opportunities grow, I’m realizing the need for more structure. We’re working on building a system to keep everything organized. It’s also important to me to involve Vanessa in the process and make sure she enjoys it!
What is your creative process before a work session or collaboration?
-First, I focus on getting into the right creative mindset. Then, I dive deep into understanding the brand or project—its essence, style, and objectives. This helps me visualize the final outcome and keep it in mind throughout the process.
What excites you the most about the fashion industry at the moment?
-As much as I love fashion, with everything happening in the world right now, I find myself approaching it with more humor than seriousness. It’s a way to stay creative and expressive without losing sight of what really matters.
Has your perspective on fashion changed since becoming a mother?
-Motherhood has taught me that fashion can be both functional and fun.
Do you look for eco-friendly or sustainable products for your baby? and How do you view the importance of sustainable fashion in this industry?
-Of course! and It’s absolutely essential. Sustainable fashion is the future - it’s about making responsible choices that benefit both people and the planet, without compromising on style or quality.
Thank you so much, Viktoriia, for sharing your experience and your inspiring vision of fashion, motherhood, and sustainability with us. It has been a pleasure, and we wish you all the best in the exciting projects ahead. See you soon :)
