fruit in a market in the industrial town of Nizhniy Novgorod, 250 east
of Moscow. At 17, she left Russia to try her luck as a model in Paris.
At 19, she felt in love with the son of an English viscount Justin
Portman, had his baby and three months later was starring in the YSL
show. When they married, in a three-days extravaganza of a wedding, she
was 20, he was 33.
"When I was 14 a boyfriend introduced me to a 'modeling academy' where
we leaned things like how to say poetry, and never had any photographs
taken. It was more like going for fun. When a scout from Paris came up,
he told me, 'you are going to Paris, and you will do well, but only if
you learn English in three months'." says Natalia.
