L’Officiel Arabia: How and when did you decide to become a model?
Stephania Morales: Since I was a little girl my mom always used to dress me up, she would sign me into fashion and beauty contests, I studied and practiced modeling and acting throughout my school years where I eventually became the queen of my school and I loved every minute of it. But it was not until I moved to Europe that I started to embrace it, attending Fashion shows in Paris, London and Milan, wearing my very first haute couture dresses to Film Festivals and Red carpets such as Cannes, Venice and Bafta, and then eventually becoming a cover girl. The decision to become an influencer was a choice that unfolded naturally, a series of experiences and the fusion of my genuine love for fashion.
L’O A: You have won numerous beauty pageants, tell us about your experience.
SM: Each experience has enriched me with a new perspective and granted me valuable lessons. They have inspired me to grow into who I am today, every day I seize as an opportunity to inspire and embrace acting as a model citizen, beauty shines from within and true luxury is an essence.
L’O A: You are also a Techpreneur, tell us more about your business.
SM: My entrepreneurial success came naturally as the successor of my journey in fashion and modelling, this passionate affair has allowed me to work on multiple projects simultaneously, in the company of an incredible team chasing incredible missions, I find this to be the most fulfilling, joyful spend of my time.
L’O A: Have you ever been to the UAE before? If yes, tell us about your experience.
SM: I adore spending time in the UAE, I’ve been keeping it a secret but you heard it here first, I am looking to start a new project there and I would be spending much more time there. The scene is incompatible with any other, I always have the best time there!
L’O A: What's next for Stephania Morales?
SM: Grow and conquer! I have so many ideas and wonderful projects I have yet to take action. The world is ever-changing and so am I, for the season ahead I am focused on the world of high fashion, attending red Carpets and fashion weeks, and the dazzling world of charity galas. Stay tuned for I look forward to sharing it with you beautiful innovations.
