Few models can say they've walked the runway for such top-tier designers as Proenza Schouler, Jason Wu and Diane von Furstenberg, and have been red carpet arm-candy to Mr. Chanel himself Karl Lagerfeld.

But now fashion It girl Elisa Sednaoui can chalk that up to just her modeling gigs -- the part-Egyptian, part-French, Italian-born model and all-around Cool Girl recently took her first turn as a music video director, going behind the lens with pal Martina Gili to direct Israeli musician Chaim Avital's Robots on Meth.

And clearly, she relishes the more active role.

"I've seen so many images, lighting and ways of editing. So this time, it's a great pleasure to be in power," Sednaoui tells Interview.

The video features her two real-life friends spending a night out in London, and can't you just picture the beautiful Sednaoui walking the runway to the moody electronica track?

Models -- they're not like us.

Check out the artsy video above.
