[trans] Grazia Magazine Interview with Red Velvet

Q: Today you become the muse of Black Martine Sitbon in front of the camera. You stand in front of camera not as a singer, but as a model. How do you feel about that?

Wendy: We usually like wearing Black Martine Sitbon's Slip-on. This time, because we're doing the photo shoot, we could try to wear this and that, so it was so fun. Sightseeing clothes, accessories, and such items, it felt like we were doing a shopping.

Joy: That's right. The bag and the shoes are so pretty, I think that's why we could have more fun doing the photo shoot.

Yeri: During the photo shoot, we kept sightseeing all items that were being prepared (laugh)

Seulgi: More than that, we should show the product beautifully. So we did many researches about the pose. We looked at how the other models did it and then we practiced in front of the mirror.


Q: You did the photo shoot all day long, weren't you tired?

Seulgi: In the waiting room, we took pictures and played around so we weren't bored. Wendy was passionately taking pictures of me, and very satisfying pictures came out (laugh)

Wendy: I like taking pictures of the members (laugh)


Q: Oh, You seem have talent in photo shoot? This time you worked with Cho SeonHee photographer, how was it?

Seulgi: He has been working with numerous stars so far, we're like those people too. “Can we do it well”, we worried about that.

Wendy: However, during the shoot, he explained one by one, he also told us the way to get prettier pose, because of that we're so thankful. Next time, I think it will be a big help to us at different photo shoots. Making the photo shoots look fun and still smiling even in the serious shoots, I think that's the hard point.


Q: For so-called “kamera feet”, is there any know-how?

Irene: Anyhow, I think it's the best to try taking lots of shoots. So that we can see/know our own face. In old days, I really couldn't take selca, but because I keep trying to do that, I think I've improved a bit (laugh)

Seulgi: Natural pose and expression? Not trying really hard, I think that's the point.

Joy: Everyone has their best pose and expression. But, during the shoot, try more various gestures. After that the image that fits well with the camera will come out.


Q: During the work with Black Martine Sitbon today, is there any item that catch your heart? I'm curious about Red Velvet's styling, what will you wear.

Seulgi: For me, It's the yellow shopper bag on the group shoot. These days, giving a point with color is fun. That bag is really eye-catching. It's designed to be held in hand, I think it fits the luxurious styling as well. It's also good to be the point accessories for wedding or big occasions.

Joy: I like Slip-on that we wore at the photo shoot earlier. If we wear it with white dress, I think it will look cute and feminine.

Yeri: I still remember the Hot Pink Mini Bag. It's the comfortable style if we go the airport.


Q: What item that you want to recommend to other member?

Wendy: Irene unnie, since she likes shoes that show her instep foot, I think Lonely Shoes 3 Red will be good. The red color fits her well, and her feet are small, so she really looks like “Dorothy” from The Wizard of Oz.

Yeri: For Joy unnie who likes Macaroon, wouldn't it be that pouch with Macaroon drawing??


Q: What are the things inside your carry-on bag?

Wendy: iPad, earphone is essential, wet tissue, writing case, charger and diary.

Yeri: Since I like thing with scent, I always bring body lotion or body mist.

Seulgi: Usually I like using small items, especially cute items, so there are watermelon-shaped coin purse, writing case that looks like Bear Pooh, I always carry around those things.


Q: Omo, that's so cute (laugh). Today you wore various kind of Sneakers and Slip-on of Black Martine SITBON, How was it? Are you still thinking that sneakers are more comfortable than high heels?

Irene: You bet I am! Comfortable things are the best. During the school trip? I remember, that was my first time wearing high heel, I couldn't even straighten my knees, and I walked with tottering steps (laugh)

Wendy: Since I'm short I want to wear high heels, but for me it's sneaker too...(laugh) When I was in Middle School, I did musical performance and that was my first time wearing high heel. My mom felt really great, even just like that (laugh)


Q: If Red Velvet become a designer, what kind of shoes and bag that you want to make?

Wendy: I want to try making sneakers with the color that can be changed as you wish, depends on the weather or mood. Something like glasses frame! And on the shoes, I will put our first single title “Happiness” on it.

Joy: I want to make small and cute bag from red color and velvet materials. Something that resembles Red Velvet's name.
