Tomek : Simon Nessman. Almost half of the people I know told me so.
Ernesto : Strangest outfits you had to wear.
Tomek : Paweł Fabjański shot me in a war & sports-themed edit. Full soccer attire with a camouflage cap looked weird. I also realized Asian designers often create extravagant clothes.

Ernesto : What about Spain ?
Tomek : Is there a trick ? I don't know many people in this country. Only some pretty girls.
Ernesto : A beauty secret ?
Tomek : Nothing special for my face or my body. And I can eat as I like, my weight doesn't change. Best thing is a good night's sleep before a shoot. Besides, I loves sleeping.

Ernesto : Best phrase from a stylst.
Tomek : "You are perfect, I love you ! "
