The woman in the image can be mysterious and to me I think it’s important that she is mysterious. So even in the way a woman walks down the staircase like Cindy walks down, I like the way that the legs open. I like the muscles that I see, I like the way the knees open. She walks down in a certain way.
Well, I show the girl what I mean and if she’s smart, she gets it immediately.
