1. Like in dreams, normal girls CAN be recruited last minute to be models. It happened to a volunteer on Wednesday. She was tall thin and lovely, nervous, and pretty good at it!
2. Models dont necessarily have great bodies. They are small, for sure, but they still can have a big bum, wobbly bits, big boobs, round tummies, short legs, and cellullite. Theres not many that have toned perfect figures, just like the rest of us!
3. Lots of people dont want their showbags, and volunteers eat the leftovers for dinner between shows. Decidedly unglamourous, but if you had no prospect of dinner until 10, you too would drink 2 litres of water and eat 3 chocolate hearts while scrabbling under the seats on your knees.
4. Backstage people/organisers are all nice, with like 2 exceptions. They are also quite stylish, some more than others, but generally quite normal.
5. If you are a dresser, you get to see male models in their underwear.
6. When volunteers get picked to model, some other volunteers spend hours sulking cos THEY didnt get picked, and they actually are a model normally- (that must be why they are volunteering.....ooh nasty!)
From now on my attention will be diverted to New York Fashion Week.....so far nothing has astounded me, but elle.com and style.com have reviews and pics aplenty! they are both in our link list.....

Maybe I should become a dresser for the male models... err on second thought, that might prove too much of a distraction. LOL.
Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself.
This was one friend's reaction after a fashion show volunteering gig: "Boobs. Everywhere. I walked in and just...boobs."
I was at the front serving drinks (and definately not drinking any myself. Ok... that's a lie).
