(New interview translation by me from German, so probably not the best.)
What is the perfect holiday for you?
I like a mix of beach and culture holidays. Last year we were for example in Tulum and looked at the Mayan sites. That was wonderful. Most of the time, however, we are so tired that it is enough for us to be four. My husband and I then only look at the children while playing.
What do you need in your eyes for the perfect bikinifigur? Bikini dress, go to the booth and ready? Or do sports five times a week before venturing into the public?
Clearly the first approach. In South America, many women are much more curvy than they are and they are proud of it. We can learn a lot from this attitude. The women wear the tightest bikinis, we should do that, no matter what figure.
Your collection should also appeal to curvy women?
In any case. We are all different. I look just like I look, I'm lucky. But I find women with curves just as beautiful. If a woman feels comfortable in her body, then that is sexy. Have you ever felt uncomfortable in your body?
No. I feel as confident as never before. I think that comes with age. Today I know a lot more about who I am than before. And this is becoming more and more important. For outer beauty is not for eternity. When I think about the future, I think about how I can improve my inner values, not my body.
Nevertheless, you have probably grown up in the awareness to belong to the above-average attractive people.
Not at all. In my home, beauty was never an issue. When I grew up, I was never told I was cute or cute. That was simply not important. At that time there was not the Internet yet, and we also had no modem magazines at home. Just a normal newspaper. The only popcultural influence I had was music videos. Today there is an over offer. It's just about how someone looks and what he wears. This is a great pressure especially for women. More attention is paid to how attractive they are than on what they have to say.
Do you see this beauty pressure, the way the society judges women and their bodies, even more critical since you are the mother of a daughter?
Yes, I think more about it. When I publish photos of myself, I try to make them look as authentic as possible. After all, I create a certain image of a woman. Then I wonder whether it is the right thing to do. On the other hand, people sometimes want to see images that do not correspond to the reality in which they can dream. It was tried to make advertising without Photoshop. But I believe this is not what people want to see in this regard.
How do you teach your three-year-old daughter to feel comfortable in your body as she gets older?
I do it like my parents. Externals should not be an issue at home for as long as possible. I want her to keep her childhood as long as possible.
