Exclusive Interview: Eva Herzigova on summer holidays

Posted Jun 12, 2009

It's June, it's sunny (in Italy anyway) and so time for a new interview series as Swide asks the world of fashion about their summer.


WHAT KIND OF SUMMER HOLIDAY DO YOU PREFER?
Being by the seaside

WITH FRIENDS, FAMILY OR LOVER?
With them all!

THE BEST SUMMER HOLIDAY YOU'VE EVER HAD?
A romantic one in the Seychelles.

YOUR FIRST EVER HOLIDAY?

My first holiday abroad was in St. Tropez with my family.

HAVE YOU EVER HAD A SUMMER ROMANCE?
Who hasn't!

HAVE YOU CHANGED THE TYPE OF HOLIDAY YOU GO ON SINCE YOU’VE BECOME FAMOUS?
No, not really. Even though l could go anywhere l wished, l still often go back to my parent's house in the mountains...just like l did when l was little.

DO YOU TRAVEL LIGHT OR WITH HUNDREDS OF SUITCASES?
Yes, with hundreds of suitcases. But, as I'm a mother, guess what?! They're full of nappies, toys and other children's stuff.

APART FROM THE OBVIOUS – IS YOUR SUMMER WARDROBE UNIQUE TO THE REST OF THE YEAR?
My summer wardrobe is quite simple: long and short hippy dresses, shorts and T-shirts.

MOBILE PHONE/BLACKBERRY - ON/OFF ON HOLIDAY?

Blackberry. On, but on mute, so l can glance at it now and then to see if there's anything urgent or important do deal with.

WHAT IS YOUR HOLIDAY MAGAZINE/NEWSPAPER OF CHOICE? DO YOU PACK BOOKS/SUGGESTED HOLIDAY READING?

I enjoy catching up with all the magazines and newspapers that I normally don't have time to read and I love reading books, especially biographies.

WHERE ARE YOU PLANNING TO GO THIS SUMMER? WITH WHO, IF WE MAY ASK!?

Somewhere by the sea with my family, but we haven't decided where yet.

3 SUGGESTIONS FOR SWIDE.COM READERS AS TO WHERE THEY CAN ENJOY A MEMORABLE SUMMER.

The Italian islands for boating.
The South of France for its delicious food and wine.
Anywhere that has a good spa to enjoy a nice massage.

HOW DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOU RETURN FROM YOUR SUMMER HOLIDAY?

Full of energy and ready to start afresh!

BE HONEST – AS A CELEBRITY IS LIFE ONE LONG HOLIDAY?
Yes...If I could stop running from one job to another!!

With special thanks to Eva Herzigova
