Canadian Kelsey van Mook has been modelling internationally for over five years. She chatted with WWD about the past 5 years and what the future holds for her.<\/p>\n
Here are our highlights:<\/p>\n
Givenchy was my first big thing. That was crazy. I hadn\u2019t done any big shows yet and it was my first time in Paris. I was just shocked. I went to the fitting and all these supermodels were there. Being in the lineup and seeing all the girls that were behind me \u2014 girls like Lily Donaldson and Adriana Lima.<\/p>\n
Now if I do shows, I see if I can just get a few good ones. It was crazy when I was doing a lot of shows \u2014 it was like 50 per season. It\u2019s two months of crazy. It\u2019s really stressful. But I would like to do it again, now that I\u2019m older and I know what to expect. I love doing the shows in Paris because they\u2019re such big productions. It\u2019s such a cool thing to see. When you\u2019re doing shows, it\u2019s hard to enjoy it because you\u2019re so tired; you don\u2019t even have time to think about it, whereas with editorial, it\u2019s a nice long day \u2014 you\u2019re in one place for eight hours. But I like both.<\/p>\n
It teaches you to grow up fast. You\u2019re always around older people, and I\u2019ve learned how to live on my own in different countries, which is pretty crazy, because I\u2019ve traveled the world. At my age, I\u2019ve been so many places and I never would\u2019ve done that otherwise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
