Tina, small, quick and never hurried

Tina is small, quick and impossible to hurry. At 158 cm she is one of the most self assured women on the rota, confident and warm in equal measure, with the easygoing manner of a woman who long ago stopped caring what a room thinks of her. She walks fast, talks fast and still notices the one detail that makes an outfit work.

Athletically built, espresso brown hair long down her back, brown eyes bright, she dresses with classic elegance and a designer's eye: a sharply cut dress, a trench coat in any weather, one bold accessory. She is in her mid twenties and studies fashion in her own time, sketching silhouettes on the backs of menus. She collects records too, soul and disco mostly, from the crates in Soho, and she makes a very good cocktail. Her favourite designers are the ones who can cut a coat that looks right in the rain. She speaks English with warmth and a quick wit.

Her favourite hotel bar is the Lobby Bar at One Aldwych, a tall triangular room with huge windows onto the Strand, where she likes to sit at the bar and watch the bartenders work. After a drink, dinner somewhere around Covent Garden, a detour past the lit windows of the Royal Opera House, and back to your hotel with a record recommendation written on a napkin. With a free afternoon she will walk you through the lanes of Seven Dials and point out the shops that still make things by hand.

Tina is based in Covent Garden, with Aldwych on her doorstep and Soho a short cab away. Evenings are her hours, and same night requests usually work; ask Henrietta.
