WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LINEISY MONTERO

Which Harry Potter character does she relate the most to?
 

Few models can claim that they have helped define fashion, and even fewer models can say that they did it in their first catwalk season. But Lineisy Montero, from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, is one of those models. Since she made her runway debut as a Prada exclusive in their Fall/Winter 2015 show, Montero has continuously been one of the industry’s most sought-after models. 

 

Her face is one of those instantly recognizable ones: killer cheekbones, a slight tooth gap, the cutest chin dimple and, of course – the super chic afro that paved the way for a long overdue comeback of natural black hair on the catwalk. 

 

Thrilled to have this H&M favorite in our studio, we asked her to fill out our Top Model Secrets questionnaire. 

 

IN MY CAREER, I AM MOST PROUD OF…
“That in the past months the industry has become more open to diversity, and we see more and more models of color.”

MY MODEL ICON IS…
“Coco Rocha.”

MY BEAUTY SECRET IS… 
“A face mask made of honey and brown sugar.”

MY SECRET TALENT IS…
“To invent stories, I am very dramatic.”

A FICTIONAL CHARACTER I RELATE TO IS…
“[Harry Potter character] Luna Lovegood.”

My secret talent is to invent stories.

THE MOST CHALLENGING PART OF BEING A MODEL IS…
“Spending a lot of time away from your family, but also to take responsibility. I always used to do everything with my family – but when I started modeling I arrived at all these different places where I had to take care of myself.”

MY GO-TO SONG AT KARAOKE IS…
“All the songs, especially the romantic ones.”

THE QUALITY I LIKE MOST IN OTHER PEOPLE IS…

I SMELL LIKE…
“Decadence by Marc Jacobs.”

MY FAVORITE OFF-DUTY LOOK IS…
“Dresses and sheer tights.”

RIGHT NOW, I AM OBSESSED WITH…
“Tights in different colors – I’ll wear them in blue, purple, pink and even orange.”

THE BEST BEAUTY TIP I’VE EVER RECEIVED IS…
“Drink water.”

SOMEONE I STALK ON INSTAGRAM IS…
“That’s top secret ? ”

THE BEST LIFE ADVICE I’VE EVER RECEIVED IS…
“Always give the best of you.”

POST-MODELING, I WOULD LIKE TO…
“I still haven’t really thought about it, but maybe an interior designer or a teacher.”

MY CHILDHOOD NICKNAME WAS…
“Flaca. It means thin.”

BEING A MODEL, I’VE LEARNED…
“To be more responsible, in a way it has taught me to stand by myself.”

MY FAVORITE TV SHOW IS…
Glee.

RIGHT NOW, I AM READING…
Love in The Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez.”

MY GOAL IN LIFE IS…
“To help my family and see them happy.”
