Elena Perminova is a famous Russian fashion model who can rightfully be called one of the style icons of modern youth. She is also known for being the wife of a major Russian businessman Alexander Lebedev.
Biography
Elena Perminova was born in 1986 in the town of Berdsk near Novosibirsk. Already from adolescence she began to be interested in the modeling business, but first she entered the local economic institute. She did not succeed in studying, although after a few years she will still manage to get a higher education at one of the Moscow universities.
Elena was barely 17 when she signed her first contract with the Modus Vivendis model house. At first, everything went well in her career, but after a while Perminova ended up in the dock as a drug suspect. It was going to prison. The girl's parents turned to State Duma deputy Alexander Lebedev for help, who took an active part in the process of organizing the defense. So Elena managed to get away from prosecution.
Soon the girl was invited to star in an erotic photo shoot for the Playboy magazine. She was also chosen "girl of the month", after which representatives of various modeling agencies began to turn to Elena. Perminova began to appear on the catwalk at various international shows in European capitals, showing unique collections from brands such as Armani, Lanvin and many others.
Personal life
Elena Perminova began to develop a serious relationship as a teenager. She contacted a representative of criminal structures, which is why she was embroiled in an unpleasant story with the spread of drugs. Businessman and deputy Alexander Lebedev, who supported the girl, became a real savior for her. A romantic relationship began between them.
Despite the fact that Elena and Alexander did not enter into an official marriage, their family life was quite happy. They are raising two sons - Yegor and Nikita, as well as daughter Arina, who was born in 2014. The age difference between common-law spouses is as much as 27 years, but this does not bother them at all.
Elena Perminova and her husband travel frequently due to the fact that Alexander Lebedev's business is international. In their free time, they prefer to relax in exotic countries - Colombia, Zimbabwe, the Maldives, as well as in a family villa located in the Italian Umbria.
One of Elena's hobbies is fashion blogging: the model maintains an Instagram account, which already has more than 1.8 million subscribers. To her many fans, she talks about trends in the fields of makeup and wardrobe, and also demonstrates the most interesting moments from her life. Many of Perminova's idols consider her an icon of modern style, as well as an example of what success a girl from a simple family can achieve.
