One of the most stressful but exciting things I have ever done is work behind the scenes dressing models at fashion shows! I am lucky enough that my universities fashion program allows us with the most amazing opportunities to work these fashion shows. This was my first "major" fashion show I had to work, and it was for Saks 5th Ave, and I was dressing models in Oscar De La Renta ball gowns and Jimmy Choo heels.
There were 12 models at this show, and only 4 other students from my school showed up to dress models (including me). We arrived at the Palm Beach Country Club, and walk into a back room filled with all the models trying on their outfits. My teacher told us that we all had to dress two models! The last fashion show I worked at for Lord + Taylor was stressful enough and I had one model and 3 oufit changes. This time I had 2 models, each with 6 outfit changes! Not to mention, they were wearing gowns with corsets, millions of claps, and zippers! It was definitely a daunting task, but I knew I could do it! Once the show started it was so hectic, but I loved every minute of it.
On Wednesday I am working another Saks fashion show on Worth Ave in Palm Beach and it is supposed to be a huge show, so I will definitely post pictures after working that!
This is so Exciting! Cannot wait for more pics of the next fashion show that you work!
