She is best known as the longest appearing fashion model for Prada. She never wanted to be a model, but her photographer boyfriend,  Igor Vishnyakov, took some photos of her that started her carreer. Later they married and Sasha gave birth to their first child, daughter Mia Isis in 2012. In her free time, she paints and draws. Her paintings have been displayed in a gallery in Paris, Mansion Grand in New York, and have been published in French Vogue.

She does exercise every morning and practise kung fu to be fit.

Her opinion about a debate: runway models are really slim:

"We are trying to look like a 15 years old girl, and I think it's a good promotion."
