London Fashion Week: Day 2

SIDEWALK darling, FILM, and his camera-timid sidekicks, Chase and Lindsay, turned up on the secand day of London Fashion Week. The Spring/Summer 2013 collections impressed on them the need to invigorate their SUITCASES if they are to look as sharp and crisp as the models on the catwalk. Normally, they would rely on everyday inspiration on the sidewalk. However, with raucous cheers, they welcomed the iridescent catwalk creations; especially the metallic colors and floral prints. Officials displaying Exhibition Passes, promptly asked them to keep the noise down...

                            CHASE
The show has'nt even started yet, yet this posh idiot is trying to muzzle us

                            LINDSAY
What's taking so long?


                         


                                         FILM
(craning his neck to see the front)
I don't know...Oh. There are some empty seats on the front rows..maybe the would-be occupants are running late

                                        CHASE:
This is ridiculous! a catwalk show last, on average, 12 minutes, so you think they would make on effort to get here on time.


FRONT ROW GETTING REFRESHMENS.



                                                                   
(moaned)                         CHASE
Hmm. We should try get on the front row nex time.... They seem to be getting all the treats..



                                       FILM
We are LUCKY to be on the back row, so shut up before they throw us out. Lots of people on the outside WISHING they could get inside

                                                                                LINDSAY
Lots of people stayed home, some of them WISHING they could be OUTSIDE. Others have tickets front row, but can't make it for whatever reasons.

                                                                                 FILM
True. And there are people behind us, STANDING....Have you noticed? We are just as impeccably dressed as the front row....


                                                                                 CHASE
We're looking good, of course....Forget the front row...I say, we could give the models on the runway, a run for their money..


THEY BANG ON THE BACK OF CHAIRS, SPECTATORS TURNED AROUND AND GAVE THEM DIRTY LOOKS


                                                                                CHASE
What you all looking at? Do I look like the RUNWAY to you? UGH!

                                                                                LINDSAY
I like your style. I think THEY do too.


A handful of people walked in and took the vacant front row seats. Officials came over, examined their tickets. Promptly point them towards the back row.


                                                                         LINDSAY
                     (chuckles) SERVE THEM RIGHT

.......................................................................................


                                         FILM

Spring better hurry up...The models are glowing in the vibrant colours and signature prints...We MUST hit the shopping mall for cheaper versions of these magnificent creations.

                                        CHASE
(gushes)
Indeed!....Look at the soft textures, the thoughtful tailoring of the garments. Awesome! We need that glow also.


                                        LINDSAY
(giggled)

We must get some wearable prints


                                         CHASE
Indeed...I would wear that(points at model on catwalk) floral jumpsuit...It's my birthday, incidentally.


                                   
                                          FILM
....That's just for the catwalk. It's jaw-dropping but you wouldnt let you sit beside me on the sidewalk bench, wearing that. I'm the star on the bench. Those bright colours would let you outshine me. And it's NOT your birthday.


                                          LINDSAY giggled.


                                           CHASE

I KNOW the difference between wearable fashion and catwalk pieces....I was merely joking



                                              LINDSAY
                                                   
LIAR!!!!Don't lie...You were serious.


                                                       WOMAN SITTING FEW ROWS BELOW:

SHUT UP....If you have no catwalk decorum, you should go back to the sidewalk bench where you CLEARLY belong.


                                               CHASE
(cackles softly)

OUCH!


                                                FILM
                                 You both need to behave yourselves before we get kicked out...As a matter of fact, let's go back stage.

                                             FILM

How would you describe the atmosphere backstage?


INTERN

I'm having a wonderful time. Working backstage  at London fashion Week is a dream come true; meeting the models and experiencing the scenes


INTERN

Backstage is Live on Fashion TV, so all my family and friends are watching me right now. It feels great.


                                                FILM

What's your role?


                                               WOMAN HEADING TOWARDS THE TOILET
I'm a make up artist for the models....I've just finished applying make up on Juliana Schurig



                          FILM
(glances over on Juliana)

She created waves on New York Fashion Week, she is destined to do the same on London Fashion Week. She look stunning. Well done!


Thank You!



                           FILM

Mary Katrantzou is doing amazing job with these models hair and beauty....

No doubt

                          FILM

......What question would you ask her about her designs, if you get the chance to do so?

..I...I..I don't know. I would be too overwhelmed to say anything.. I have great respect for her Swarovski Collective..
