Queen of Europe - 2013

The 22-year-old student from Dnipro, who participated in the "Top Model of the World 2013" competition held in Egypt, made it to the top five most beautiful girls in the world and was crowned "Queen of Europe - 2013". Anna is an unconventional model by industry standards. Despite attending a modeling school since the age of 12, she can rarely be seen wearing makeup or heels in everyday life. She seamlessly combines social events with hiking trips and her studies, as she has not one, but two higher education degrees. Currently, Anna is studying marketing at the day department of the fourth year at the Dnipro State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture, while also pursuing a degree in psychotherapy.

Difficulties and Competition

Recalling her experience, Anna remembers that the difficulties began from the moment of her arrival. She admits that she is not particularly fond of feminine accessories and dresses, and has always been a bit of a "tomboy". She arrived in Egypt wearing jeans and a jacket, confident that she looked good. However, when she met the competition director, his astonishment made her realize that she needed to quickly change her attire. The very next day, she changed four outfits, tirelessly adorning herself with flowers and accessories. According to Anna, the competition not only focused on appearance but also on the behavior of the participants. On the first day, they received letters with recommendations on what is considered good and bad behavior. For example, smoking or drinking alcohol was prohibited. Flirting or exchanging contacts with outsiders was not recommended. Participants were also not allowed to appear in negligee. After one of the contestants was noticed sunbathing topless, she received a stern reprimand. Of course, the competition was not without fierce competition among the participants.

"They paired us up in rooms where we had to share the shower, toilet, and makeup table with our competitors," Anna smiles. "Luckily, I found common ground with my roommate, who represented Turkey, but many had terrible conflicts that led to tears and tantrums." The most unpleasant part was the manifestation of racism from Slavic girls towards those with darker skin.

Support and Family Background

Anna's boyfriend, a business consultant, not only did not feel jealous but also did everything he could to support her. It should be noted that Anna's family situation is not the simplest. When she was two years old, her parents divorced, and she was raised by a stepfather who passed away when she turned 12.

"At that time, we lived in Moscow, and in an attempt to protect me from these hardships, my grandmother took me to live with her in Dnipro and enrolled me in various clubs - drawing, basketball, and a modeling school. I do not have a relationship with my biological father, but I don't hold any grudges against him. On the contrary, I really want to establish a connection with him. However, he is not very eager to engage, perhaps because he has his own family, and maybe he is afraid that I would seek financial assistance from him. I hope that after reading this article in "Komsomolskaya Pravda," he will understand that everything is going well in my life, and I just want to communicate with him. And maybe even make him proud of me."

Tips for Staying in Shape

To maintain her waistline, Anna advises tying a string around it to prevent overeating. She suggests eating in small portions and doing a morning workout for legs, buttocks, and abs to keep the body toned. Her measurements are 84-62-90, and she stands at a height of 174 cm. She has blonde hair and green eyes.
