Day 2 Model Fittings

I may have started the week a tad overexcited. You know how you throw yourself into a project 150% then the next day you feel buggered? Or when you ambitiously drink 2 bottles of wine because 'you won't even feel it' the next day? That's how I felt today.

The former, unfortunately not the latter.

Today I woke up blessed with the headache Liz Golding no longer needed and consequently passed on to me, so to my assistant tomorrow-sorry but it's your turn next. I was also blessed with the ability to whinge about how my head was aching like a ... which resulted in one of the lovelier models ferreting in her bag for Nurofen.

Which brings me to my next point, when magazines say that small bags are 'tres chic' and 'so versatile', they have to be lying. Either that, or they have never had to work backstage at a fashion event. My bag near exploded today. Seriously! Look what I managed to fit in it!

'Tres Ridiculous'

Combat boots, flats, gum, deodorant, 2 ipods, a phone charger, entire make up bag, camera, nail polish, sunglasses, 4 lipsticks, boost apricot bites, programs. To name a few.

And I'm not the only one, every second model has a Country Road bag if not something to that affect.

So first up this morning was an MX photoshoot and fittings for group show 7:

Daniel Alexander Couture

Blanc + Delta

Neon Heartache

Lilya

Beginning Boutique

Lady Petrova

If you don't already have tickets to this show, get them!

While I worked very hard at sending 20 models between 6 designers and trying to sneak in a few interviews, I also got sidetracked by Lilya. For those who don't know, Lilya is designed by the oh so wonderful Lisa, who is based on the Sunshine Coast and looks like a walking campaign for 'I just threw this on and look fabulous'. This was further enforced when she literally tied her hair in a knot because she couldn't find a hairtie.

Lilya shoes that I absolutely must have.

You can't reaaaaaaally tell because I nearly got chased down for taking this sneaky photo, but La'Ace is modelling Blanc + Delta for an MX photoshoot.
