Hello Carlotta, Tell us..

Tell us about your career in a few words?
Good morning : )
I am Carlotta, I am Italian. And I am a dancer.
I started my journey very early. I left home when I was 12, to train at a professional dance school in Rome until I was 18. Then I began my career at the Teatro La Scala in Milan, then at the Rome Opera, and then here at the Paris Opera.

What motivates you in life?
I chose a very tough profession. As a dancer, it takes a lot of motivation to look in the mirror and be comfortable with yourself, and your choices, in such a competitive industry.
So, I find my energy and motivation deep inside me. And my spontaneity helps me in my private life as well as on stage. It is important to listen to our body and our heart.
My family is also important for my motivation. I have always traveled and moved a lot since I was very young, and my family supports me in all the difficult moments.

What is the most daring thing you have ever done?
The most daring thing was to start this journey as a dancer. Because I was 10 years old and I was not at all aware of what it was like to be a professional dancer. Now when I look back, I'm not sure I'm capable of doing all that journey again.
It's like getting on a train to follow your dream, I don't know where it's going, but I get on anyway.
I think my parents were even more daring than me to let me do that : )

How would you describe your style?
I have a very classic and basic style. I wear a lot of black, blue, beige or white.
But since I arrived in Paris, I lived in the Marais, I see people wearing lots of different colors, and it makes me want to try other colors and dare to change a little.

What is most important to you when choosing shoes?
It's probably the comfort and quality. Because I walk a lot. Beautiful material is important to me, for shoes as well as for a coat.
And also simplicity. I have a very classic and timeless wardrobe.

What is your favorite Emzi pair? and why?
It's hard to choose. I'm hesitating : )
In winter, it will be the Freya boots. For everyday use, it's the Flavie in black and fuchsia.

Thank you Carlotta..
