My mom and I were asked to model in the Ralph Lauren Fashion show at Macy's Dadeland. I had such a blast. I got a real taste of what it takes to be a a real runway model. I have a new appreciation for models and their patience.
The fitting was long and depressing. Nothing looked good on me, I tried a million different outfits and none were just right. It took about 2 hours to finally get my 4 outfits together. Once they were chosen, I was relieved.
Mara (the Ralph Lauren coordinator) did an amazing job of making me look great. The outfits she chose made me look stylish and were comfortable. What was awesome about this show was the fact that the 11 models were real everyday women in all shapes and sizes. None of us had ever modeled before and we just had a blast.
My sister Karen tried to take pictures, but they came out blurry. She took video instead (see video below). I apologize for the quality (it was taken on my digital cam. Oh yeah, Baby was invited to participate in the fashion show too! She modeled 2 amazing dresses and was a hit with the audience.
