Antonia Vasquez is an 80s model. She was a muse to designer Emanuel Ungaro.

Born: Concord, California, US

At 19 years old, she quit her job as a hairdresser, bought a one way ticket, and with only 500 dollars in her pocket, left for Milan. Vasquez met Emanuel Ungaro on a go-see for his prêt-à-porter show. It wasn’t until her agency asked her to do showroom work for his private clients that they began to work closely together. It was this time, she says, that Ungaro would teach her the “Haute Couture attitude.” She described how, with experience, she was able to show her personality and attitude through the Ungaro couture. After that, she became a high fashion model in the industry. Emanuel Ungaro designed all his collections on her for three years. When asked about Ungaro’s creative process, Antonia shared that she had a little room next to Ugaro’s studio where she would wait for him to call her in. She tells of how she worked in “a black bra, opaque stockings, and heels” and would stand on a small platform in front of a three way mirror. Lined along the walls, one could view his stunning illustrations and throughout the studio, one could always hear classical music playing.
