Fashion shows are tricky.

They are tricky because nobody realizes how much work and effort

one has to put into it to make it work.

Students' fashion shows are even harder to do.

Firstly, it is impossible to find people who are going to lend you clothes.

Secondly, the whole idea of renting instead of making them,

is not only a cliché but also it is like heating your yesterday's pizza in the microwave.

Unhealthy and unpalatable.

Then there is the whole logistic chain that you are lacking,

who will do the hair, make-up, prepare choreography, take care of the show ecc.

Obviously, one can achieve it.

Making connections

(yes yes enchufe es necesario)

comes handy in the situations like that.

Mom's friend is a hairdresser, she will do the hair.

My friend loves make-up, let's check if she could cover that bit for us.

Clothes...hm...I go to this&that shop all the time.

They know me there. Let's see if we could arrange sth there.

So you pull together all these bit in hope of creating something spectacular.

You have to be warned then,

these bits can gnaw.

The key to make it work,

is to be organized.

Making sure that people who are around you know that they should behave professionally

NOT necessarily pretending to be "think pink&Spandex guy from Devil wears Prada."

If you chose to be a model,

be a model,

Not

a stylist.

If you chose to be a stylist,

a model.

People skills and common sense can be a blessing.
