Dark Stories from the Modelling Business: Gints Bude's Experience
A piece on Apollo.lv recounts the darker side of the modelling business through the experience of Gints Bude, who runs a studio for fashion models. One example involves a 13-year-old girl brought to the studio by her mother.
The Latvian news portal Apollo.lv has published a piece about the darker side of the modelling business, drawing on the experience of Gints Bude. Bude runs a studio for fashion models, meaning people who show clothing to an audience.
One case mentioned in the piece involves a 13-year-old girl. Her own mother brought her to Bude's studio. According to the quote given in the source, the mother said: "Three thousand lats right away, and I'll leave her with you."
This excerpt is all that is known of the article. The date of the incident, how Bude responded to the mother's words and what happened to the girl are therefore unclear. The full story and the other examples in the piece are available in the Apollo.lv publication.
