Personal Quote:

After returning to New York after changing her name to Veruschka: "I dressed all in black and went to see all the top photographers, like Irving Penn, and said, 'I am Veruschka who comes from the border between Russia, Germany and Poland. I'd like to see what you can do with my face.' " See more »

Trivia:

A picture of her (under the name Verushka) was used by British pop group Suede as the cover for their single "The Drowners" (1992). She's nude, sitting on a chair and body-painted like a man wearing a suit. See more »
