Vassilis Zoulias was a guest on the couch of “Noris Noris” on Tuesday morning (24/3). The leading designer unraveled the tangle of his personal and professional life, describing how his creations made it to the Netflix phenomenon series, Emily in Paris, while also telling the story of his acquaintance with Aliki Vougiouklaki.
“We had done that famous commercial with Aliki. It was at night, it was too cold… freezing. Alice didn’t understand anything. I remember Psinakis had come that night, he was in Metropolis,” describes Vassilis Zoulias.
“The first time I went to her house, I was called by Nota, who did all the work for her, and she says “Mrs. Vougiouklaki will see you”, she says “she wakes up after 12”. I go to Alice’s house at 12 o’clock, a fishy 24-year-old kid, to work with her on “A little earlier, a little later. When she met Spyropoulos, it must have been in ’87.
So I go in, frisked, I see Madalena there, the portrait. Nota says to me “you’re going to go into the bedroom”. I go into the bedroom, it was Alice, the bedroom, the curtains, the sheets, the carpets and the deshabillé robe with matching pashumi. “Sit, sit here,” he says to me. We had a terrible relationship,” he recalls soon afterwards.
“So we talked about the theatre, about the costumes and as we were leaving, he looks me up and down, I was very skinny too, he says “Have you eaten? Are you hungry?” And she pulls me into the kitchen, surreal, and I see her frying me potatoes and eggs.
And she pulls me into the kitchen, surreal.
And then Alice was very supportive and during that time I had various issues at the time with drugs. She had sent a lawyer to represent me in court. And then I saw her one last time at a party and she said, “It’s good to see you, Basil. Are you okay? I’m not.” And that was the last time I saw her,” Vassilis Zoulias concluded his story.
