"...So I did go to Paris to try my luck because another friend of mine, Hanis, you know, Hanis? She was working in Paris, and we were best friends at the time. So she said, 'Yeah, you have to come, you have to come. The work is so good and you're paid so much more.' So I did try. I did try for like one season. But I was in my early 20s, 21 or something, but I hated it because it was snowing the first time I arrived, it was winter, and I missed home and the food and I didn't speak French at all. I was like, 'Okay, I'll do one season just to prove to everyone that okay, you said I can work there. And I worked there and I'm just coming home. I'm gonna stay in Singapore now.' They said, 'Oh, no!' When I came back, they're like, 'Oh, you work so well. You're so silly. Why don't you go back?' I said, 'No, I hated it, it was so snowy, it was so lonely, and it was so horrible.' In the end I went back and I'm still here after 30-something years. Actually, when I first went to Paris, I went to Givenchy, just to say hello, because I didn't have an agency, didn't have any... only knew my friend. And she had a fitting at Givenchy, so she's like, 'Pat! Pat! Come with me.' I said, 'Sure.' So I went there. I said, 'Hi, Mr. G.' We used to call them Mr. G. And he's like, 'Oh, who's this girl? He said, 'I want her to work, sir.' He said, 'Can you start straight away?’ I was like, 'Sure!' You know, everyone goes to Paris to find an agency first and then they will send you for castings. I did it the other way around. I went to a designer, got hired, and then had to find an agency. So after Givenchy, I went for casting at Jean-Louis Scherrer, and I was working for, I don't know, Chanel, Pierre Balmain, Cardin, who else? I can't remember. Then I went one day for casting at Jean-Louis Scherrer, and then they said, 'Oh, would you like to be our house model?...So I worked actually exclusively because being a house model, I had no time to do any other shows or any other fittings. But I was happy. I was really happy there. I was even paid... because I managed to get paid for one year when I was actually working for six months.” -- souce: sgfashionhistories Pat Kraal walking the runway for Jean-Louis Scherrer sgfashionhistories - courtesy of Pat Kraal

“Hi, I'm Pat Kraal, top model in the 1980s. Top Model because I did go abroad to work and I did do a lot of shows in Paris. Well, actually, because of my height, I'm 178, it really wasn't easy growing up in Singapore being my height. As a teenager, I was already, I think, at 14, I was already my height. I remember going after school, you know, the big school holiday in December, and then going back to school in January, and I was like, from primary to secondary, I was like, 'What happened to everyone? Why is everyone so short?' So I kind of shot up in the two months. And 178, so I mean, you know, with my height and all I think, my height and my build, I was thinking, why not try modelling because some of my friends were already models. So they also like, you know, pushed me and said, Why don't you become a model, so, okay I'll just try". -- souce: sgfashionhistories Cherie magazine, 1988 sgfashionhistories - courtesy of Pat Kraal
