Movement Direction
translates
your whole project
into a body language
- to communicate
the essence
of your creation.
Fashion is art & deserves to be presented in an artistic way.
Models are performers and deserve a human & purposeful approach to their bodies.
Ilva is an artist, model & director.
Studied in contemporary dance education.

"I have learned about Movement Direction from Ilva. She is a master of body language.
When I wasn't aware of what my hand was doing or if I was in the right mood, she was there to guide me and tell me what I was putting out there and if it was in alignment with the vision we were trying to create.
Photographers sometimes don't have the time and knowledge (and honestly it's not their job) to direct the model, so having someone like Ilva on set is a game changer.
She graduated from dance school [The Music and Arts University of Vienna], is a model herself, and during the shoot she was constantly focused on my bodys expression.
Hopefully Movement Directors will become a regular part of photo shoots and runway shows!"
