Catch Up With Jill Gern

What have been your personal highlights since the Elite Model Look Final 2016?
I’ve been to Paris, it’s such a beautiful city. I also stayed in Barcelona and Madrid. I also did a shoot with Luc Braquet, the photographer from the Elite Model Look World Final! I’m really happy that Elite makes this possible.

How do you stay in shape?
I was always into sports, mostly I’ve done ballet. I also enjoy riding the unicycle, I do a lot of yoga and I am a vegetarian. In every town I stay in I’m always looking for a good gym!

Did you always want to be a model?
I actually never seriously thought about becoming a model when I was little, but it’s a dream getting the chance to meet and work with great people in many different places. It’s fun trying different looks and I feel at home in the fashion world.

We saw on Instagram that you saw Davidson in Paris - that must have been fun!
Davidson is really special, he has a great energy and we laughed a lot. We are still friends even though he tricked me on 1st of April when he pretended that he has a broken leg. I totally believed it. That was a successful April fool’s!

We also spotted you hanging out with Adrian!
I met Adrian in Barcelona and it was great that we’ve been there at the same time. It was a wonderful reunion.We had a lot of fun! We planned to go to the gym together but that didn’t work out as always one of us had a shooting or a casting on the schedule. But we went out for a new faces dinner!

What’s your advice to anyone applying to Elite Model Look 2017?
Oh yes, enjoy the time as it is an important part on the way to becoming a model. It’s really unbelievable how much you learn from the coaches and how many amazing different people from all over the world you get to meet.
