The video of her showing her hair became a phenomenon on social media, reaching millions of views.
‘Unique sensation’
I’m very excited, it’s a unique feeling. I started as a model when I was four years old and I went on to other places — music, cinema, theater, books… Now to be back on the catwalk, in Paris, with all this power, is priceless,” she said. Larissa just before the fashion show for Quem magazine.
“I’m excited! This year is very different, on the street, so I’m excited. I’m not going to say that I don’t prepare, because there are dress rehearsals, hair rehearsals, all that preparation. But I let the emotion of the moment take over. Last year I had a surge of positivity and this year I hope for the same,” she celebrated. Such also for the portal.
When I was a model, I couldn’t walk the runway because I’m only 5’3″. It’s funny, when I was 13 they told me I couldn’t walk the runway and now, at 45, I’m walking at Paris Fashion Week. It makes me think. Sometimes people say ‘no, you can’t, this isn’t for you’ and maybe those people are wrong,” she emphasized.
