A runway show mixed with a heat wave is a good recipe for disaster, so avoid the risks of having one.
Designers from Akira Isowaga, Aurelio Costarella, Collette Dinnigan and Martin Grant featured their collection for the union of the inspirational fashion of 2014. Their range of clothing was an inspiration to upcoming designers, fashion students, major companies and to me. Each model featured in the collection fit the whole concept each designer was trying to accomplish.
Being apart of this show was another runway experience with a new understanding on how it is run and the difference it has to other shows I have done. The construction of it was breathtaking, elegant and very floraish (if thats even a word) because it corresponded to its environment, which was at the Royal Botanic Gardens.
Having the show at the Royal Botanic Gardens was exciting, even for me! During the dress rehearsals one of the models hadn’t arrived and I was quickly asked to fill in for her. I didn’t wear any of the clothes or shoes, even though i wish i could, but i filled in for her to see the timing of the walk. If only i had a photo to see the height difference with me and the models. Im already short enough as it is, but standing next to the models on Heels was way to funny!!! All those who were working in the show were hysterical and it was rubbing off me too.
Point is during the walk, I had the best time, I strutted like the models and added a lot my flare to my walk; swinging my hands, bowing, swirling and waving (just like the princess diaries film taught me). Everyone was hysterical including the models.
That was a good part to the day until the heatwave. Lets just say get the job done so you don’t step on any toes, constantly be hydrated and check that your makeup doesn’t fall off your face (which happened to me). Bring an umbrella, a phone charger so that it doesn’t die while your taking photos (hello me) and network your life away with the upcoming and current fashion generation & make sure your having fun so you remember these type of moments.
Well thats all from me, here a couple of photos i took before my phone died.
