First of all, I love O2W a lot. No, really a lot. They stand for new faces, and enjoy the development process as much as I do. Plus, their track record is impeccable and taste level in models is uncanny. Needless to say, I was somewhat surprised when I presented my discovery of Aneta Bielecka to Julio, only to find him equally impressed.
More than anything, I'm just happy to finally have a last name for this beautiful girl. Well, that and I'm pleasantly surprised to see how motivated and tenacious Aneta was in starting her own career. Some may call it conceited when a model submits her own pictures (i.e. the start of Doutzen's career many a year ago), but I call it motivated. To know that you have that special something is not arrogant, so much as it displays a sense of confidence and an understanding of the business.
I would be lying if I claimed to not be the slightest bit satisfied that my taste passed the test at O2W. After all, its reassuring (though not necessary, of course) when your eye for talent, so to speak, is confirmed. Perhaps this is only meaningful to me after not landing the job of my dreams a week ago, but it is truly an honor to be called a "vigilant colleague" by people who share the same enthusiasm and love for this field.
Anyhow, thanks to their sensational connections at O2W, Julio was kind enough to share with everyone the background story on Aneta:
After one of our more vigilant colleagues brought Aneta Bielecka to our attention, we contacted our wonderful friend Gosia at Avant Management Warsaw for details. Now 17, this Polish girl from Wroclaw was discovered last year when she took the proverbial bull by the horns. Aneta did what any 180cm tall gorgeous girl with “big blue hypnotizing eyes” would do. She got on the internet and sent in some photos. Of course Gosia was amazed. So much so that she trekked to see Aneta in person and just knew Avant “had to have her.”
It is hard not to state the obvious. That height combined with 81cm-60cm-90cm measurements merits thick Sharpie check marks in the plus column. Oh but there’s more. Turns out she’s graceful too. And in the last few months her development has come along nicely, building on an already impressive confidence that will be “super on the runways.”
Aneta’s interests include photography and painting. She’s athletic as well and will be glad to take you on in her two favorite sports, a game of volleyball or a tennis match. Her dream? The cover of American Vogue.
Go for it, we say! Thanks so much to Gosia for her enthusiastic assistance.
