And as soon as the show actually begins, all I want to do is get out there.At Galliano's debut show, I had to pose sitting still on a huge pile of mattresses, pretending to be the Princess and the Pea I was absolutely longing to jump off. I probably would have if the dress hadn't been nailed to the mattress.For his first Dior show, I was a guest and arrived an hour late because of a fitting, and thought I'd missed it entirely. But like most shows, it was running behind, so I got there with 10 minutes to spare.At the Grand Hotel, guests are seated in lots of different rooms, which makes the show quite intimate. I was seated quite close to where the models were making their entrance, so I could see all my friends getting ready, which was quite strange.
It's such a different impression watching a show from being part of it all.The show was brilliant, but what struck me most was the way the models moved and posed on the catwalk It is such a different impression from being part of it all. Models are far more capable than people think; they really make the show.It did feel like a real fashion moment, and it was quite emotional while we were there, but for me Givenchy was a major event, too. I suppose with Galliano there are fewer surprises because he's been around for longer.I really loved the African bead work in it The make-up was great, too But I really can't imagine myself buying couture. For a start, I don't imagine having hundreds of thousands of pounds to spend And I don't associate haute couture with my life. To wear a couture suit or dress feels very different to wearing everyday clothes As a model, you get used to it With three shows a day, it becomes quite routine.
When you give it a moment's thought, you think it's really cool.
