Camila Arnes interview

Are there any specific fashion trends or styles that you enjoy experimenting with or incorporating into your own look?

The truth is that I still don’t have any specific style that I’d like to experiment with, but I always tend to go for pastel colors and a clean look, since it’s similar to the looks of ballet dancers. I’d also like to add that I really like anything with sparkle, so I try to include it in my styles.

What is your greatest weakness and how have you tried to overcome it?

My greatest weakness is constantly striving for perfection, but I’ve been overcoming it over time by being aware of it and accepting it.

What are your strengths?

One of my strengths that I’ve realized lately is maintaining the best attitude even when things don’t turn out the way you expect—being grateful and not giving up

What are you passionate about?

I’m passionate about ballet, the wellness lifestyle, walking in the mountains, going to the beach, doing Pilates with friends, and going shopping.

What aspect of the modeling industry are you most passionate about?

The advertising sector, photo shoots, commercials, catalogs, and especially seeing the results after the work is done—like seeing them on a website or in a magazine.

Could you share your career goals and aspirations for the next five years, both within and beyond the modeling industry?

Having worked for major beauty or fashion brands, or being the face of campaigns—whether commercials or runway—also having visited different countries through modeling and being able to live entirely from it.

What inspired you to pursue a career in modeling? Was there a specific moment or experience that influenced your decision?

What inspired me to pursue a career in modeling was my passion for fashion, beauty, and visual expression. I’ve always been drawn to the creative side of advertising—photo shoots, campaigns, and the way an image can tell a story. There wasn’t one single moment, but over time, seeing fashion editorials, commercials, and runway shows, and imagining myself in those spaces, made me realize it was something I truly wanted to do. The idea of working with creative teams, traveling, and seeing the final results of my work published online or in magazines strongly influenced my decision.

I’ve been involved in modeling since I was 15 years old. I worked for a long time in runway shows and television in my home country, then I stepped away to focus on my studies. When I arrived in Europe, I felt a strong desire to return to modeling, as it’s one of my greatest passions.

Who is your favorite model and why? How has their work influenced your own modeling journey?

I have many, but the one I admire the most is Candice Swanepoel. She stands out to me because she has remained authentic over time and has done many collaborations with my favorite brands. I feel she is very professional, elegant, and feminine. She has been my favorite for years and a true reference for me. In addition, she was also a ballet dancer, which is something I strongly identify with.

Do you have a favorite fashion designer or brand that resonates with your personal style or aesthetic? What draws you to their designs and philosophy?

I like the brand Gucci for its history and because it has designs that I identify with. I also like what Prada has done because of its elegance—I appreciate it when luxury brands don’t prominently display their logos, and these brands do that with some of their products. I also like what they convey in terms of intellect and style.
