GGotW: Where are you from!
OO: I was born in the western part of Germany and up to now it's the place where I am living.

GGotW: What got you into modelling?
Ophelia's Overdose climbing building in Cybergoth wearOO: I was always pretty interested in extraordinary gothic and fetish photography. There were quiet a lot artists, who kept on impressing me with their work. But, I do not think about being a model until 2007. In a half year's time, four photographers ask me on the street if I want to be part of their projects. Those shoots were a kind of experiment for myself, because now I know my preferences very well.

It would be correct to say that I start modeling in April 2007, since that time I have worked with a lot of photographers, who are interested in realizing my current shooting concepts!

GGotW: What styles do you like?
OO: I prefer Gothic, Cyber and Fetish styles. Many people like to dress in those styles, but I take the view that every detail has to be exciting. You cannot copy styles of others, without loosing yourself. I am mightily impressed with people who express their personality without caring about differing opinions!

GGotW: Is there a Goth Club Scene in your area?
OO: The goth club scene in Germany is pretty widespread. Especially around Cologne and the Ruhr Valley, you cannot overlook the club scene! Furthermore there are lots of well-known festivals in Germany like the WGT in Leipzig, the M'era Luna Festival in Hildesheim and the Amphi Festival in Cologne.

GGotW: What is the scene like?
OO: It's a scene full of individual stylings, different music preferences and lots of parties :D

GGotW: If someone were to visit your part of Germany and wanted to experience the local scene, where would you send them?
OO: In the daytime I would send them to some pretty nice gothic and fetish stores in Cologne. My personal favorite is Cosmic Ware . Fetish clothing on 500 sqm! In the Evening it is great to drink some cocktails, or go dancing in some pretty great clubs.

OO: One of the first photographers I worked with, was Oliver Pietern, it was a great chance for me cause his knowledge about photography, digital art, and paintings are incredible! Our creativity matches together in a perfect way! I am also proud of working with j-maya for a long time now! Our shooting concepts are always well planned and very lavish. I guess we will never get enough of each other :)

Natzo is one of my favourite photographers I have worked with, too. His way of expressing beauty fascinates me increasingly. His conceivabilities of showing my best features in front of his camera are very creative and deliberate. I have to say sorry for all the photographers I didn't mention :)

GGotW: Why did you start modeling?
OO: I always had the compulsion to express myself. That's why I dress in that extraordinary cyber style every day. On top of that I was searching for a possibility to stage my different facets and, it's a way to show my self-made hairfalls and clothes to everyone who is interested in seeing something unique. I am addicted to putting my newest hairfall creations in perspective by creating an exceeding setting. There's more to it than that, I am not just a model, who designs her own clothes and hairfalls. It's my passion to complete the whole scene, put on my make-up and I delight in doing the post production in photoshop!

GGotW: What inspired you towards the Cyber side of goth/punk?
OO: I love the surface of materials like latex, plastic and pvc, shining and glittering materials, bold colors in combination with black. Dominance and arrogance in a woman's face,
Breathtaking silhouettes, artfully destroyed clothes. Those aspects (and considerably more) fit together perfectly. They just captivate me!

GGotW: Do you ever feel that you in turn inspire others?
OO: A few years back, when I was fifteen years old, my outward appereance changed.

It was something like a physical and psychical turning point in my life, I felt like having the insatiable desire to find myself. The individual aspects relating to my clothes grewn up very fast, ever since then, I realized that I am more than a source of inspiration for others.

Hardly a day goes by without somebody addressing me with the purpose to tell me that I am a kind of hope for individuality in this lifetime.

27 year-old Scarlett Sin hails from Charlotte, North Carolina with international gothic fetish, and cyber modeling experience. She's been modeling for 4 years and has built an impressive resume (see links at the end of the article).

GGotW: What are your favorite pastimes?
SS: I enjoy horror movies and wandering abandoned buildings.

GGotW: How long have you been modeling?
SS: 2 years and then took a year off.

GGotW: What got you started?
SS: I loved Morrigan Hel and I told my fiancĂ©e over lunch one day that I was going to be a fetish model.

GGotW: What brought you back?
SS: I missed it! I love latex and modeling and getting dressed up! I don't know a single girl who doesn't!

GGotW: What are your future plans?
SS: I am getting married this month and plan to continue to model and build my website. I just plan on having fun and enjoying life!

GGotW: What do you do for a living?
SS: I have an office job - I work on event planning, the website and anything else they tell me to do.




GGotW: What would you like us to let people know about your site, and all its naughtiness?
SS: I enjoy modeling because it gives me time to slip away from the boring reality of my office job and live in a quick moment of excitement and fun. It is a time of fantasy for me, a time to escape. I always look to try and combine glamour with a touch of trash, because let's face it every woman looks and acts glamourous but behind closed doors we are all just dirty trashy girls. You'll find the glamorous dirty Scarlett Sin in every picture featured on my website.

GGotW: What does your husband to-be think of your modeling?
SS: He loves my modeling! He feels so proud to see me in magazines and online. He encourages my modeling and picks out outfits and shoes for me all the time!

GGotW: When you say international model, where have you modeled?
SS: I have been featured in International Magazines.

GGotW: When it comes to fetish modeling, what wont you do? Where are your limits?
SS: I have very few limitations to my modeling. I am always willing to try creative things with reputable photographers.

GGotW:
Is your real name or a stage name?
BS: Yes! Brandyy Skye is my first and middle name ;) I figured I would keep it simple and be myself.

GGotW: What part of the country do you live in?
BS: I reside in Raleigh, North Carolina.

GGotW: Has modeling been easy where you live or do you find you need to travel for gigs?
BS: Its been pretty easy so far. Not as easy as it would be if i were located in New York, Cali., Florida, etc. I've traveled to those states as well as DC, but not really because I needed to. It was more because I was offered the opportunity and wanted to go! BUT I'd like to think I have done well for a remote model also. I Model for many companies which include some latex designers-
The California based and the UK based .

GGotW: What lead you to modeling?
BS: I felt it was something I could be good at, so I went for it! And of course.. FREE CLOTHING & FOOTWEAR!! *side note- not every model gets free stuff.. maybe 13% of us at best. Your more likely to receive a small discount*

GGotW: Was ALT modeling your first genre, or did you start in another field ?
BS: When I FIRST started modeling I was 7. It was for a company called Peaches 'n' Cream *awwwwe hehe*. I did that for a lil' over a year, then stopped. I picked back up on modeling when I was 11. I was crowned Queen of my Elementary school. My photo was published in the local news paper and the owners of A Touch of Elegance Boutique saw me and I was offered a mini contract to model for them. After that I didn't model again until I was 17, that's when I started doing Alternative modeling.

GGotW: Why are you now doing gothic modeling?
BS: I'm in the alternative modeling scene because I will never be 5'11 and 110 lbs. no matter how hard i wish for it! hehe so this is it for me..its fun and low stress and that is just fine with me!
Plus, I like sleeping in. I'M not a fan of waking up @ 5am yikes!

GGotW: Who's your favourite photographer to work with?
BS: As of now, I love working with and it's a tie between those two. So if there are any photogs out there that want to be one of my favs as well, contact me!

GGotW: What keeps you busy when you're not modeling?
BS: When I am not modeling I go to movies, my fav , I look for unique stuff on ebay, update my wish list and watch my fav TV show, The girl's next door :P

GGotW: When you model are the clothes yours already, or are they bought / designed special for the shoot?
BS: Someone usually buys the outfits and footwear they want me to model for them or designers will work with me to design outfits they want me to model for their shop.

GGotW: What's your favourite outfit to date?
BS: That is too tough! I don't want to make any outfits jealous.. i love them all! I will say I really like UV and reflective clothing.

GGotW: What is the coolest thing you've ever shoot?
BS: One of the outfits, that I helped design, included a cute lil' latex military style hat- I don't think its the coolest thing, BUT it was definitely the cutest! /hopefully it will end up in this feature! What is the weirdest thing you've ever shoot? Nothing so far! I guess I will make that my next project :P

GGotW: What's up next for you? More shoots, shows, or some other project that you're working on in another field.
BS: There will always be more shoots and projects, if I can manage it! Hopefully something big.. I am keeping my fingers crossed :) Other than that I will be going back to school In the spring.. maybe fall :P I plan to get my degree in Animal care and management technology.

GGotW: When you started your website, was there a propose behind it other than exposure?
BS: I wanted to have a website for myself.. a document to hold good times and memories. Its always good to have a reminder of your accomplishments.
