灰姑娘的逆襲 波蘭女清潔工變身職業模特

A model has gone from cleaner to the catwalk after an international agency took a shine to her looks.

有一位女清潔工的長相被國際模特公司看中了，於是她搖身一變成爲一名美麗的模特。

Aleksandra Naranowicz, 27, struggled to find work after moving to England from Poland despite an impressive CV and a masters degree.

亞歷山德拉今年27歲，雖然她碩士畢業、簡歷令人印象深刻，但當初她從波蘭來到英國找工作卻屢屢碰壁。

She made ends meet with a modest £250-a-week job as a cleaner - but her luck changed when one of her clients referred her to a London modelling agent.

終於她找到了一份清潔工作，憑着每星期250英鎊的微薄收入勉強維持生活。但是在客戶把她推薦到一家倫敦模特公司之後，她的命運徹底改變了。

They told Aleksandra she had the figure and looks of a model and the six-foot cleaner soon left her mop and behind.

他們告訴亞歷山德拉，她擁有模特潛質的身材和長相。於是這位身高6英尺（約1.82米）的清潔工很快就丟掉拖把奔赴新的前程。

She has already starred in a string of adverts and catwalk shows and is earning up to £2,000 a shoot.

她已經成爲一系列廣告和走秀新星，出場費達2000英鎊。

Aleksandra said: 'People said I had a pretty face and that I’d be good as a model. This gave me the confidence to meet modelling agencies in London.

亞歷山德拉說：“人們說我擁有美麗的臉龐，所以我一定會是個好模特的。這些話給了我面試倫敦模特公司的信心。”

Aleksandra left Poland with a Masters degree in Pedagogy - the science and art of education - and moved to Bristol.

亞歷山德拉在波蘭拿到了教育學的碩士學位，研讀教育科學和藝術的她畢業後來到了英國布裏斯托爾市。

She took a job with local cleaning firm Mopp and one of her clients, a retired media mogul, told her ‘with bone structure like that you should be on a catwalk not cleaning my kitchen floor’.

她在當地保潔公司Mopp找到了一份保潔工作。她的一位客戶是退休的媒體大亨，這位客戶告訴她“你骨子裏就是當模特的，而不應該在這兒給我擦廚房地板。”

She spent the next few months working as a cleaner to save the money to go to castings in London and was signed up by PRM, a leading model management company.

在接下來的幾個月中，她努力做清潔工的工作以攢錢參加倫敦的模特選拔。接着她就與一家一流的模特管理公司簽約了。

She now works as a full-time model and has done countless shoots, specialising in hair magazines and adverts.

她現在是全職模特，並且已經擔任了無數場模特、尤擅長出任美髮雜誌和廣告大片中的模特。

Mopp founder Pete Dowds said: 'We’re delighted to have been a part of helping Aleksandra with her career.

Mopp公司創始人皮特說道：“我們很高興能在亞歷山德拉的職場飛躍中助她一臂之力。”

'She was a brilliant addition to Mopp’s Bristol cleaning team so we’re sorry to lose her but no doubt she’ll "clean up" in the fashion world in no time.'

“她是Mopp公司在布裏斯托爾市的傑出員工，很遺憾我們失去了這個人才。但是毫無疑問，她將很快在時尚界大放異彩。”
