Milena, decided before you finish asking

Clear answers, fast decisions and a black dress that means business. Milena is direct, and she makes that a pleasure rather than a warning: if she likes your plan she says yes at once, and if she has a better one she tells you in two sentences. Guests who spend their days waiting for other people to decide find her wonderfully refreshing.

Striking at 175 cm, curvy and tall, Milena has a sheet of long straight black hair, eyes of warm brown, and a wardrobe of high shine and editorial precision: patent heels, a sharp shoulder, a bold lip. She is in her mid twenties. She plays tennis on the public courts in Holland Park, fiercely and without mercy, and throws pots at a ceramics studio when she wants to slow down. Her English is precise, her humour very dry.

South Kensington is her home ground. On a free afternoon she will take you straight to the ceramics galleries at the top of the V&A, walk past two thousand years of pots in twenty minutes and stop at the one she wants you to see. Evenings start with a strong espresso and end in a hotel bar; the Ampersand on Harrington Road is her local choice, close to the museums and quiet after dark. She is equally happy to stay for the night, and says so plainly.

Milena lives in South Kensington, minutes from the SW7 hotels and a short ride from Knightsbridge. She confirms quickly for evenings and overnights; message Henrietta and expect a clear yes or a better suggestion.
