She also lent Sorokin one of her own dresses (the black one), adding that she “did not feel like it was a conflict at all”. The journalist purchased both the white dress and snake-print dress that Sorokin was famously photographed in. Pressler was then asked to go to H&M to buy an outfit for Sorokin, which she did. Pressler added that it wasn’t solely because of Sorokin’s vanity that the trial was delayed, stating: “Defendants have to wear civilian clothes at trial because if they wear a prison jumpsuit it might prejudice the jury.” Typically, the court would have clothes to lend the defendant but Pressler notes that they didn’t have any on that specific day, meaning that Sorokin had no clothes to wear and so proceedings were delayed. ![]() Pressler told Vulture that there had been “hiccups with the clothing deliveries”, which meant that the designer clothes Sorokin wanted to wear hadn’t arrived and that held up the trial. She only ever received $5,000 from Sorokin. Later, however, when Sorokin could not materialise a working credit card of her own, the hotel ended up charging the $62,000 sum to Williams. The hotel assured her that no charge would be made and that they only needed a functioning card on file. When Sorokin’s card was declined for the huge hotel sum, Williams was pressured into putting her credit card on file. The journalist put the plane tickets on her American Express card Sorokin also asked her to pay a couple of designer Kaftans and an extravagant dinner at the prestigious La Sultana restaurant. Williams was pressured into footing the bill for the whole holiday when Sorokin said she was experiencing trouble with her bank – but assured Williams that she would be fully reimbursed. After befriending her at a party in 2016, Sorokin invited Williams on a luxurious holiday to Marrakech where they – and Sorokin’s trainer and a photographer – stayed at the five-star luxury resort La Mamounia. This episode takes much of its material not only from the New York Magazine article, but also a first-person feature written by Williams for Vanity Fair – where she had worked as a photojournalist – in April 2018. Inventing Anna sees Chase’s app fail and the character eventually moves to the UAE to work for a Sheikh this storyline is reflected in the real-life article, too.Įpisode six is a highlight of the season, telling the tale of Anna’s ill-fated holiday in Marrakech with her personal trainer, a videographer and the Vanity Fair journalist Rachel. Inventing Anna seems to have picked up on this detail, framing Anna and Chase as a dynamic duo hustling their way up the ladder by rubbing shoulders with the right people. Pressler writes that for approximately two years Sorokin and “the futurist” had operated as “a team, showing up in places frequented by the itinerant wealthy”. Likewise in Inventing Anna, when Vivian finally manages to get hold of Chase, he only agrees to speak with her if she refers to him in the article as “the futurist”. ![]() The journalist calls him a “futurist on the TED-Talks circuit who’d been profiled in The New Yorker”. Pressler writes of a “boyfriend was running around with for a while”. While Chase plays a huge role in Anna’s life, there is only a brief mention of such a boyfriend in the New York Magazine article. He is also portrayed as Anna’s cash-cow in the series, forming part of the explanation as to how she was able to fund her lavish lifestyle. The full concept, however, is never fully explained. He is a tech bro looking to source seed money for his app called Wake – which is vaguely described as an app used to capture data around dreams. A lot of screen time is afforded to Anna’s turbulent relationship with her boyfriend Chase Sikorski (Saamer Usmani). ![]()
