A Glimpse into Elegance and Ambition: Interview with Martina Hirsch, German Model, and Influencer

Renowned across Germany and beyond, Martina Hirsch has graced the pages of esteemed publications and made waves on the international stage. This year, her presence illuminated the 76th Cannes Film Festival's red carpet, a testament to her ascending trajectory. Martina reveals new facets of her identity and talent with each photo shoot, an artist constantly evolving. In this exclusive interview, the model generously shares her insights and experiences, giving us a glimpse into her remarkable journey.

What inspired you to start your model career? Share your journey.
It wasn't in the plan initially. I aimed to step beyond my role as a family-oriented individual and make my mark on the world. My entry into the modelling world is tied to my immense passion for fashion.
You have significant experience working with fashion magazines. What can you remember about your first shooting?
I was incredibly excited, but at the same time, I felt pretty nervous. I recall being unable to sleep the night before due to the anticipation. Based on my experience, I would advise others to avoid going through a similar sleepless night in preparation for their first shoot.
Working with men's magazines &mdash; are there any specific moments in the process? Is there any preparation process before the shooting?
It's quite similar for me, no matter the magazine. When I have a shoot coming up, I always set aside the day before. I take time to take care of myself, both physically and mentally. I aim to keep calm and relaxed to be super energetic on the shooting day.

What role does social media play in your career? How do you build your personal brand?
Social media helps me talk to people all around the world. I use it to share my thoughts and make people feel happy. It's like a stage where I show who I am and want to find friends who like feeling inspired, just like me.
Can you tell us about a particularly memorable or impactful experience in your career?
Oh, I have a memory that shines! It was when I walked on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival for the movie "Club Zero." Imagine going up those stairs with fantastic actors, wearing a super precious dress.
In your opinion, what are the most important accomplishments in your career?
The best parts of my career are my time collaborating with stylists, makeup artists, and hair experts. I've soaked up so much knowledge from them. And when did my work get featured in those big-shot magazines? It was like a big high-five from the industry, showing that my work was catching some serious attention.

Are there any specific initiatives or fashion projects you admire or feel inspired by?
Definitely! I'm drawn to Ukrainian designer fashion, and if you peek into my wardrobe, you'll see it's becoming a significant part. The way they infuse their unique style and creativity is just so inspiring. Wearing their pieces feels like wearing a bit of their artistic vision.
What is your daily beauty routine? What intense rituals do you do for your mind and body balance?
I'm a pretty routine enthusiast. I find comfort in having a routine. It helps me stay disciplined. A great day for me starts with a cup of coffee. Then, after a refreshing shower, I dive into a lovely skincare routine, using different creams for my face, body, and feet.
You always look so stunning. What kind of looks do you prefer for yourself in daily life?
Oh, thank you! Believe it or not, even from my childhood, I've preferred to be a bit more dressed up. I'd choose overdressed over underdressed any time. So, these days, you'll often find me rocking dresses with heels and accessorizing with a great bag or stylish shades. But when it's time for sports, you won't catch me in those heels, that's for sure!

What do you think about modern fashion &mdash; many people say today that it is too extravagant and not for everyone.
It's lovely that in today's fashion, everyone can express themselves through clothing choices. It's not fair for anyone to criticize other people's dressing styles. Fashion is a form of personal expression, and everyone should embrace their unique tastes without judgment.
How do you balance your personal life and work, especially considering how active you are?
It's all about finding that spot between my personal life and work. My family, friends, and the things I love to do are critical to me, just like my work. Making sure I recharge is a must. Usually, I try my best to keep weekends free for my family, but there are instances when work has its demands.
What plans for the future do you have in your career?
The future of my career is headed for the bright lights of New York. I'll leave a bit of suspense in the air &ndash; not revealing all the details just yet. Trust me, there's a lot of brewing, and I'm ready to dive into the adventure!
