Alongside Claudia Schiffer and Heidi Klum, she is Germany’s most famous model: In an interview, Toni Garrn talks about Beyoncé’s discarded shoes, jet-setting with a child and why a youth in front of the camera doesn’t always have to be bad.
Top model Toni Garrn greets guests barefoot in a room at the 5-star hotel “Vier Jahreszeiten” in Hamburg. She is wearing jeans and a white silk blouse, and there is a huge open makeup case on the table. Garrn sits cross-legged on the sofa, and through the balcony door you can see the sun glistening on the Alster.
Mrs. Garrn, where do you go when you return to your hometown?
Unfortunately, I can never really give people tips for bars or similar in Hamburg, because even though I’m from here, I’ve never been out partying here.
Wait, you’ve never been to Hamburg to party?
No. I was the first person to have a car back then and I loved driving my friends around and picking them up when they went out partying.
