Paran Krentsil, fashion writer

I grew up in New England and every minute of my life, I imagined myself as an actress and writer. My father was a photographer, and our whole house was always full of pictures from different cities, including London, Milan and Paris. I also grew up in an environment of colorful books, among which are often lost my schoolbooks. When most of my classmates got acquainted with the works of classical literature, I studied the biography of Stella MakKkartni. At age 15, I begged my parents to buy a little black dress. The ultimate dream was to look at least a little similar to Kate Winslet and Gwyneth Paltrow with their finesse. Budget dress from Banana Republic was far from ideal, but it changed my life. I felt luxurious, confident and very bold. Then I realized that clothes can change the attitude to yourself, your body, gait and manner of behavior, and even the future. This was the turning point, when it's understanding how something quite simple can change your attitude towards life in general.
