Paola’s turning point in her career came with a move to the Italian fashion capital, Milan. Matthieu Blazy, who worked on his debut collection at Bottega Veneta, saw in her, the face of a new generation. Paola opened and closed his AW22 show, became the face of the brand that very same season, cementing herself as his muse. Paola stands by that she wanted to embody what “her first love,” Matthieu Blazy saw in her. A complete chameleon both on set and in life, Paola’s sense of creativity is not restricted to her work but also how she approaches her entire existence.
