Pirjo’s modelling career started in the 1970’s in Sweden, when her sister encouraged her to embrace her height and to apply to a modelling school in Stockholm. She then went on to model in Paris, New York, Tokyo, and finally settled in London. In this week’s episode, Pirjo joins Tessa to speak about the multiple lessons she has learned from working in the industry for decades. Back when you had to call in at payphone and when she worked with Princess Diana, and how discipline, politeness and showing up prepared, still matters. She reflects on resilience, reinvention and the growing demand for older models in an industry now embracing representation at every age. www.businessofmodelling.co.uk   Hosted on Acast.
