Jetset People | Zhanna Romashka

Well I’ll be darned if there wasn’t a more proper example of eurotrash, I mean jet-set, than Zhanna Romashka. A Russian fashion photographer living in Italy who changed her last name, as no Italian woman does at marriage, to Zhanna Bianca (White) – but pronounces it Gianna Bianca – lest she be confused with the other Zhanna, who isn’t white. (NB: There is no other Zhanna).

Zhanna or Gianna has been playing a dirty round of mistaken identity with me. She’s a fashion photographer yet always in front of the camera. For fashion week, she sits front row beside Chiara Ferragni (whom she shot a Tod’s campaign with), blowing kisses in a pastel blue coat and taking selfies. She’s also quite photogenic, and that says a lot considering well, she’s a photographer. And a good one, too. I tracked down some of her work – she also has at least two blogs here and here where she refers to herself in the third person. The photographs posted vary from MSGM’s ad campaign for his children’s line and photos of Zhanna in flared jeans. Hm.

If you didn’t know any better you’d pin the tail on the socialite, in which case, you still wouldn’t be wrong. Zhanna is everyone and everyone is Zhanna. I’ve been doing this people-watching thing for a quite a while now and I’m telling you, this blonde just came out of the woodwork. But, I’m glad she did. Her style has faint traces of a euro aesthetic (the vulgar kind: see neon orange pumps) mixed with Chanel and Kenzo. There is always something slightly off about every outfit, yet at the same time, something very interesting. Maybe I’m off and she’s completely on. Who knows! In the case of Zhanna Romashka-cum-Bianca, we never will.

    Looks like she has had plastic surgery on her face.
