Is this a new trend, the latest fashion: “I am on the runway for Fendi and I don’t give a F%&$# !!” I really don’t understand. Why do the models look so upset? If you are a Chanel model, talk to gifted Karl – by the way, can someone explain to me the “Karl Daily”? We don’t have it here in Miami! – or be around underground Hedi Slimane, it could be worse right..?

Of course I know models should look like a coat rack but please, show us a few feelings!!! It’s like they are saying to us: “please, put an end to this nightmare, I’ve things to do, I’ve no time to wear this awesome Raf Simons outfit that makes women dream…and even more in front of these brilliant people; VIP journalists and awesome blog writers (your true friend: me! Who shares the same dreams and goals as you do…) Let’s come back to what I was saying: walking down the runway in front of Carine Roitfeld, Anna Wintour, Suzy Menkes, Emmanuelle Alt, Anna dello Russo (she runs the show all alone and she smiles…), but our model seems to think: “all those people who are looking at me, how F&%$# boring!!!”

No but I’m  serious! I can be a model if they don’t want to! I’m fine to be paid $2,000 per hour to get bored!!! I really don’t understand why nobody is rushing to my front door right now…hum, that’s strange! Okay it’s true I’m getting lazy those days!!

Colleen did admit though, that during her days on the catwalk, she was so nervous that it was easier to look nonchalant or even angry than to look happy and show personality.

Let me remind you of Inès de la Fressange, the Quintessential French Woman who was doing fashion shows AND smiling at the same time!

By the way! I’m so sad that JPG is discontinuing the PAP( prête à porter), because he knew how to put on a great show… so thank you so much Mr. Gaultier and good luck for your Haute-Couture!!!

Of course we also remember how Claudia Schiffer held her head so gracefully.

Or even Stella Tennant, with her elegance and British composure.

And also Kate Moss’ nonchalance.

Kate MossWhat a relief that today we can count on Cara Delevingne and her coolness, her funny faces and her natural style. She turns the show into something human and it seems that she likes the outfits she wears…

You can also see Brit Edie Campbell who is so relaxed but at the same time so determined during fashion shows! It’s like she’s a Martian!

Oh I almost forget…. A little surprise for you…

… Colleen as a Super Model!!

Well, just to say that I would REALLY appreciate to see fancy, crazy and full of life shows!

 What about you guys? What do you think about the models’ faces?!

  1. Hi Alix, Nice images. You’ve mentioned Ines de La Fressange. I’m following that lady since 10 years, and now she is 60, and she is still wow with her fashion and style.
