Fil-Italian model books dream modeling gig for Victoria’s Secret
MILAN, Italy - Filipino-Italian Ambra Gutierrez has now fulfilled one of her dreams: becoming a model for lingerie mega brand Victoria’s Secret.
“I did the casting two months ago, they just told me about the job a week ago. It was like any other casting I do but I was so nervous when I saw the casting group in front of me checking my portfolio, it is something I have always dreamed of,” said the 26-year old model.
Gutierrez has worked with her personality, attitude and confidence just as much as her body. She has also built up an impressive Instagram following and currently boasts over 120,000 followers.
She is working hard for her modeling career and will soon start a podcast in September with Univision, where she’ll interview and talk about how people overcome issues with the purpose of helping others.
Gutierrez is also open to the idea of joining show business.
“I’m planning to try many different things, maybe singing too. I love singing, it makes me happy,” she said.
After the issues which turned the model’s life upside down, it was a journey getting to where she is now. She has dealt with a lot of rejections but she never gave up on what she really wanted. It was a long process but was worth the long wait.
“I just think that maybe this could have happened before. My goal in life is to keep my loved ones happy, in terms of work I’m pretty much doing all I wished for,” she said.
Gutierrez is now based in New York and travels to Italy as much as she can to see her family.
