Hi! I had an amazing opportunity to work at Gloria Fashion Show 2016 in Helsinki this past weekend. And the best part of it was to do it with my friend Julija! <3
My job was to help my beautiful model Masha to change clothes between her walks on the runway. It was my responsibility to make sure she had the right outfit on with the right accessories. Therefore I was able to see what really happens backstage at a fashion show.
My model Masha was really nice and lively. She didn't speak Finnish because she is from Russia so we spoke English. She told me that she has enjoyed Finland and its lovely people. Many of the models were foreigners but there was also a few Finns.
The clothes were to die for! <3 It was really fantastic to be surrounded with fashion and clothes and everybody was so nice! But I felt really short (I'm only 157cm tall) being with really tall and slim models with extremely high heels. Sometimes it was a great challenge to try to reach my models neck to open a zipper or to put on a necklace! :D
We also got a goodie bag with some wonderful things in it! A lot of useful make-up and hair-care products.
It was an amazing experience and I hope I have the chance to do it again next year!
