The weekend of the Monaco Grand Prix is always much more about the parties and social events than the race itself. The three nights at Amber Lounge are definitely the first on the list of places to be for the VVIPs. The weekend kicked off with a Matthew Willaiamson charity fashion show attended by everyone who's anyone.
Helping with the organisation of the event was a great experience. Here's how it all happened in pictures.
The line-up of the fashion show with all the looks mostly from the Spring/Summer 2011 collecton.
Looks I was responsible for. (from SS2011 Collection)
Getting a closer look at the gorgeous garments
The models taking photos - all the time and mostly of themselves
Jumping in as a seamstress to fix some ripped trousers
The line-up
Matthew Williamson adding finishing touches before the catwalk
And the products that were used to make the gorgeous girls look catwalk-ready...
Want some more funfacts about the show?
- the hardest part about working with models is to make sure they are where they need to be - they always wondered off (just like F1 driver Adrian Sutil who also had a catwalk appearance that evening)
- The champage served backstage was just as popular among models, presenters and make-up artists as the pasta with tomato sauce
- All the Matthew Williamson showpieces were packed up in two large suitcases and flown back to England on Easyjet.
- The models wore shoes from Matthew Williamson and Giuseppe Zanotti - and surprisingly NONE of them went missing after the show
- When Kim Kardashian showed up all we could focus on was her huge rock (and her beautiful Lanvin dress)
- Matthew Williamson was just as excited to see Taio Cruz perform as I was - moving instantly closer to the stage
