At a Montblanc dinner last night I was seated across from super model Eva Herzigova, the brand’s new ambassador. She was modelling the brand’s diamond jewelry, and I asked her if I could take her picture. She posed for a few minutes and I took pictures, but then asked, suddenly, who I was taking her picture for. (It was a press dinner, and I was taking the picture for this blog.) So she said I couldn’t take any more pictures and insisted I delete the ones I had taken. It was a bit awkward, and I couldn’t help remembering the time Cindy Crawford showed up in Basel for Omega and the flash bulbs never stopped – at least a thousand journalists snapped her picture as she was walking down the aisles. Otherwise, Eva was very nice and it was a pleasant dinner.
