Icono de la Semana: Mariana Muñoz Chico

Mariana es mexicana, tiene 25 años, y desde chica le encanta la moda. Odia las matemáticas, habla español, inglés, francés y un poco de italiano. Empezó su carrera como modelo a los catorce años, cuando un caza modelos la descubrió. A los 19 se mudó a Londres, en donde confirmó que la moda era su pasión. Un día, caminando por Oxford Circus en Londres, un agente de la prestigiosa agencia Vanity la invitó a modelar. Desafortunadamente, no pudo aceptar la oferta porque pronto regresaría a México para comenzar su carrera de Diseño Textil y de Modas. Durante la carrera, trabajó para tres agencias diferentes, RGM Guadalajara, Avenue León y Contempo. También ha trabajado para CLEO Magazine New Zealand, L’Oreal, Lola de Alejandro, Cocolat Swimwear, Rexona y Berger Joyeros. Después de vivir un tiempo en el DF, regresó a León (su ciudad natal) para abrir su blog y su compañía de styling. Además, continúa modelando: hace poco fue a Paris para representar a Frida Kahlo en una galería de arte, y en España la invitaron a ser la imagen de la nueva campaña de Lady Marshmallow. También trabaja como administradora de la marca Pink Magnolia y como reportera freelance de La Vox Media.

Mariana is a 25 year-old Mexican who has been interested in fashion since she was young. She hates math and speaks Spanish, English, French and a bit of Italian. She started her career as a model when, at the age of 14, she was discovered by a model hunter. When she was 19 she moved to her beloved London, where she confirmed fashion as her passion. One day, while walking in Oxford Circus, a model hunter from Vanity London came to her and offered to join the agency. Unfortunately, she was about to leave London to start her career in Mexico as a Fashion and Textiles Designer, so she couldn’t take it. While studying, she worked for three different model agencies: RGM Guadalajara, Avenue León and Mexico City's Contempo. She has also worked for several companies, designers’ magazines and firms such as CLEO Magazine New Zealand, L'Oreal, Lola de Alejandro, Cocolat Swimwear, Rexona, Berger Jewelry among others. After living in Mexico City for a while, she moved back to the city of León (her hometown) and started working in her fashion blog and opened her own styling company. She continues to model sometimes. She was recently invited to represent Frida Kahlo at an Art Gallery in Paris, and was invited to model for Lady Marshmallow's ad campaign in Spain. She also works as a PR, as Brand Manager for Pink Magnolia and as a freelance journalist at La Vox Media.
