FASHION WEEK MEMORIES A/W 2010

Fashion Week is always a crazy time for everyone involved, especially for the hardworking models whose feet barely touch the ground during the 4 weeks that take them across the Atlantic and around Europe. With so much going on its always fascinating to hear what moments made it a memorable Season for them and MDC caught up with 3 Elite girls to find out just that!

Jacquelyn Jablonski (74 Shows):
One of my most memorable moments from fashion week was from the Gareth Pugh show. I was one of two girls to have the long chain fake nails which required loads of glue to stay on. When the show was over, the manicurist quickly wrapped each of my nails in remover and tinfoil and I flew to the next show on a motorbike. During the ride, the tinfoil was falling off all my fingers and my hands were now frozen. When I got to the next show, everybody from hairstylists to models were trying to get my nails off but nobody could. In the end, I wasn’t able to get them off in time so I had to keep my hands in my pockets for both looks and was left with pieces of chains and chunks of glue stuck to my nails. Although it was super painful… the nails did look pretty cool :).

Sigrid Agren (70 Shows):
When I think about NY, i immediately think about the snow storm! It was the first time I have experienced one. At first I thought it was fun but then as I slipped on the pavement every 5 meters, and as my feet froze, I realized what a nightmare it was!
In London, my driver always drove crazy fast, and the car was so loud! Everybody in the streets would look at us!
My last night in Milan, i had the best plate of pasta at the La Traditzionale restaurant near my hotel with my agent. It felt so nice to sit down, take my time, and turn my phone off!

The best moment for me in Paris was at the Viktor and Rolf show because I had both of my parents, my grandparents (who had come to visit for 2 days) and my brother there, and all of them were in the audience watching

Constance Jablonski (61 Shows):

New York: I moved in my new apartment during the week, Packing at night waking up between boxes and luggage! Moving during fashion week is the worst time.

Milan: I was with a friend we forgot to take an European adapter for our US laptop, and there was only one more adapter left at the shop near the hotel. We had no choice so we traded the adapter every day, he had it during the day, I had it during the night!

Paris: My first meeting with Elle Macpherson at Louis Vuitton, I love her so much I asked her if I could take a picture with her with my Blackberry, but when I tried to look at it later in the day I realized it didn’t save. Such a shame!!
