Fashion Week - Day One
Saturday 15th September 2007
Well it was a rather rubbish start from me I have to say. I was far too hungover from my antics at gay bars with Malcolm and Tom the evening before to step foot out of my flat. (Plus I was having too much fun watching Phantom of The Opera on dvd and talking to a sexy boy in Oz) So I missed the shows and went straight to the parties – typical.
Highlight (and only party I made it to) was Hannah Marshall’s ‘Celebration of The Little Black Dress’ at L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon. Naturally I wore a black dress (with purple tights, Stella McCartney clear perspex shoes and a metallic purple Gucci bag with gold bamboo straps). I invited my two assistants Anastasiya and Anne to come with me. The cocktails didn’t stop flowing and were to die for. Hannah looked gorgeous as always and her new collection is stunning. We met a few interesting people including a guy that made me assist him on some magic tricks – he also kept going on about how fabulous and smooth my skin was and how nice it is to see blonde hair when so much of the room was brunette – we became best friends fast he he. Also there were Laura and Damian, editors of Sublime magazine – I made a huge mistake of forgetting who Damian was – and I’ve even been to their house – oops. Also there was the photographer that shot Hannah’s look book – we discussed shooting together so fingers crossed.
Anastasiya and I started to get hungry so we left Anne to continue picking up the photographer’s assistant (naughty girl) and headed to the Ivy for dinner. As we left Hannah gave us a goodie bag containing some bath thingies and a bottle of elderflower vodka – I swear you cant be a t totaller if you work in this industry … Ana and I had a fabulous meal and a bottle of Sancerre at The Ivy and then headed home – I was shattered (I’m getting old and cant keep up with 18 year old assistants)
Other highlight has been the best work present so far. I fell in love with a pair of Gil Carvalo shoes on a shoot the other week and asked for a stylist discount and was denied. Anyway on Friday a wrapped box arrived with the shoes – Thank you Patrick, you are a star !!!
Whilst taking a photo of these shoes, I took one of my shoe cupboard - I have a serious shoe problem - half my shoes do not even fit in there and have another box he he
I also have a handbag problem - ok Ill shut up now x
