Ngokuqinisekileyo uNigel Barker uneliso lokwenene ubuhle. Unina wayenguMongameli weSri Lanka. Umfazi wakhe umzekelo wemodeli yokufuna imfuno. Kwaye uyayaziwa kakhulu indima yakhe njengejaji nomfoto weTra Banks ' "i-America's Next Top Model" .
Ngokuqhelekileyo e-Windy City ngeendlela zikaMacy kwi-State Street (ehlala ngaphakathi kwindawo esaziwayo ngaphambili eyayibizwa ngokuba yi- Marshall Field's Building ), kunye nokujika kwakhe kwangoko ukukhuthaza incwadi yakhe yokugqibela yezithombe, iiModels of Influence (Harper Collins, 2015).
Ingumvuzo wakhe kubafazi abangama-50 abangaqhelekanga-ukusuka kwi- Twiggy ukuya kuNaomi Campbell UKate Upton - ababenamathelekisi kunye nefuthe leenkcubeko kunye nefashishini kwimihla eminyaka.
Ngexesha lokuhamba ezininzi kweBarker ukuya eChicago, ubona ubuhle kuyo yonke indawo ahambayo, ekubukeni abantu abafake imfashini bahamba behamba phantsi kweMignificent Mile baxabise izakhiwo zezithonjana kunye neemifanekiso ezifana neBean . Saxoxa naye ezinye zeempawu zakhe ezikhethiweyo.
Ngokuhamba ngeChicago: Ndivile ukuba uhlala eSoho House Chicago . Ingaba bekulixesha lakho lokuqala? Ucinga ntoni ngamava?
UNigel Baker: Ndiye ndahlala apho kathathu (ukuya kutsho). Ndaqala ukuhlala apho kwiiveki zokuqala. Ndibe ilungu lebhula iminyaka emininzi.
UMTHETHO: Ngaba ufumene ithuba lokujonga iprogram enye ethi "Ngenkqube iChinter" xa i-bartender izisa iinqwelo zokusela izivini ekamelweni lakho ukuze ikuthule i-cocktail yokuncedisa?
Kususela ngo-6 ukuya ku-9 ntambama
I-NB: Ngokuqhelekileyo ndihla phantsi kwibhar. Andiyicingi ukuba ndakhe ndahlala kwigumbi lam phakathi ko-6 no-9. Ndihlala ndilapha ukwenza into ethile okanye into ethile, ngoko mhlawumbi ayikho into endiyakwazi ukuyisebenzisa. Iphucule kakhulu! Yiyo yaseBritani kuwe.
UMTHETHO: Ngaba uthanda iSoho House Chicago bhetele kunabanye kwiqela oye watyelela?
NB: Ndiyabathanda bonke ngokuqinisekileyo. Ndiziva (indawo yaseChicago) inendawo enkulu kunye negumbi. Ngenxa yoko, amagumbi ayamnandi kwaye amakhulu kwaye akwenziwe kakuhle kwaye acingisisa kakuhle. Omnye waseNew York ulungile, kodwa ulwa nesitulo, esilungileyo kubo kodwa asikho mkhulu kumthengi. Enye apha ndenyuka echibini ngokukhawuleza kwimizuzu engama-30 - ngoko ndiyakwazi ukucwina ezinye ii-ray zakho zaseChicago-kwaye ndafumana isihlalo ngaselwandle ngaphandle kwengxaki.
UMTHETHO: Yayiyiphi indawo efana naleyo?
I-NB: Incinci kwaye imnandi kwaye ipholile, kwaye ndagijima kumntu endaziwayo. Yiloo nto leyo ndawo: malunga nokunxibelelana kwintengiso kunye neendaba kunye nokuzonwabisa (amashishini).
UMTHETHO: Ngaba uqaphele ukuba i-Soho House Chicago iphinde ibe yindawo eshushu kakhulu eChicago, ebizwa ngokuba yiWest Loop ?
NB: Ndivile oko, kwaye ndivela kwindawo eshushu kakhulu eNew York, esiyiSithili saseMeatpacking eNtshona Village . Ndandivakalelwa ngaloo nto. Ndiyathanda indawo enje. Kwakhona isizathu sokuba ndiyathanda ukuhlala apho. Ndihlala ndibanomdla apho ubona bubuqili kwaye ulungele ukulungelelanisa ukudibana ne-posh.
Ndicinga ukuba uhlobo lwe "Sex kunye nesiXeko" segraffiti kwelinye icala kwaye iqela elincinci elincinci elibhekiselele kulo lithetha kakhulu malunga nokuba zeziphi izixeko zifana.
Nasiphi na isixeko sinokuthi siphumelele kwinqanaba apho lilahlekelwa yesazisi okanye siphumelele ngokupheleleyo, kodwa xa kubini behlangene bobabini xa ufumana ukulungelelana okukhulu. Ndivakalelwa kukuba loo magesi kwaye uziva udala kwaye yinto encinci kwaye inokuba yinkwantyi elincinci, kodwa ngexesha elifanayo liphakamisa kwaye kukho i-pulse eqhubekayo.
UMTHETHO: Ngaba uhlolisise nawaphi na amakhelwane okanye udliwe kuyo nayiphi na indawo epholileyo ongayikhumbula umnxeba?
I-NB: Ndikwazi ukujikeleza ngokukhawuleza ebusuku xa ndinexesha. Ndiye ku- RPM Italian kwaye ndahlala eTrump ngaphambili, okwakumnandi kakhulu. Ndineembono ezinkulu kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo ndafumana isidlo esikhulu (kwi- Sixteen ). Ndiyayithanda le ndawo.
UMTHETHO: Ngaba uye waya eChicago amaxesha aneleyo ukuze ubone iziganeko zomhlaba?
NB: Ngokuqinisekileyo ndiyamthanda ukuhamba ngaphaya komlambo ngeconal kwaye ndikhangele amabhanti.
Ndiyathanda nje ukujikeleza. Ndiyayithanda ukwakha . Kwimi, iindawo ezindala zesixeko ziyinxalenye yam endiyithandayo apho ubona ngokwenene imbali kwaye ufumana ingqiqo yeso sixeko. Ngoko ke, ke, kukho i -Bean , eyonwabileyo ukubona kwaye ibonisa apho isixeko singaya khona.
UMTHETHO: Njengomfanekiso wezithombe, ngaba ukhangeleka eChicago ukusuka kwinqanaba lokujonga indlela ongayidla ngayo?
NB: Ndicinga ukuba ndenza loo ndawo yonke indawo ndiya kuyo. Kukho mhlawumbi kungekhona umculi wezithombe oziqhelangayo ongahambi naluphi na igumbi okanye nasiphi isitalato kwaye ucinga nje oku. Kukho iindawo ezithile eziza kwenza uzive ngaloo ndlela, ukusuka kwi-architecture ukuya ekukhanyeni ukuya kutsho ku-feng shui ukuya ngexesha lonyaka kuyo yonke into. Ngokomzekelo, ndize eChicago ngosuku olumnandi kwaye ndicinga ngendlela abantu abanentwasahlobo ngayo kwisinyathelo sabo kunye nendlela edlala ngayo ngasemva.
UMTHETHO: Ziziphi ezinye izembonakaliso zembali eziye zambamba iso lakho e Chicago?
NB: Ukuhamba phantsi kweMignificent Mile kuyamangalisa. Kuyinto engavamile. Xa ubona zonke ezo zorhwebo kunye neevenkile kunye nezakhiwo kunye nendlela abaye bayakha ngayo ngokubanzi, unokuvala amehlo kwaye ucinge ukuba u-1920s okanye ama-1950. Yisoloko iyinto ekhangayo ukucinga ngayo, imbali yeyiphi na indawo kunye nokuba ngubani ohambahamba apha kunye nokuba yintoni emele ibonakale ngathi ngaloo mzuzu. Ayikho yonke imizi eyenza loo nto.
UMTHETHO: Xa uqhathanisa i-Chicago nakwezinye iidolophu ezinkulu emhlabeni jikelele, zihlala ngaphantsi komgca?
NB: IChicago ngokwenene ihlawule kakhulu. Abantu abahlali becinga ngeChicago xa becinga ngamadolophu aseMerika. Bahlala becinga ngeNew York okanye nakwiWashington, DC - kuba liyinkunzi - kodwa iChicago iyidolophu ekhethekileyo. Iphantse ifana ne-miniatureri version yaseNew York.
Ukuba uthatha zonke iindawo eziphambili zeManhattan kwaye uzibeka ndawonye, kuhle kakhulu ukuba yiChicago. Kwaye kunentliziyo enkulu. Abantu apha basebenza nzima, banomdla kakhulu kubo kwaye bayamkela kakhulu. Oku kuhle kunye nento esingenayo eNew York. Ndingumfana omkhulu weChicago kwaye uphelele apho njengenye yeedolophu enye inombolo eMelika.
UMTHETHO: Xa ucinga nge "style" yaseChicago, ungayichaza kakuhle njani?
NB: I-pulse yombane apha. Nangona ufika phakathi kwebusika - xa ezinye iindawo zivaliwe - abantu apha baphuma kwaye bafuna ukufumana isixeko. Iindawo zokudlela zisabetha kubo. Abantu bavuya xa ungena, kwaye ndicinga ukuba yinto enhle kwaye ithi into ethile malunga nesi sixeko. Abantu bayaziqhayisa ngesi sixeko.
