    This reminds me of an episode of the Twilight Zone where the department store mannequins get to live a real life for one month and then have to go back. “Marsha” doesn’t want to go back.

    Hearing that designer at the end saying she was going to cry, due to the apparent success of her show, was touching. It's her art, just like any other form of art. Very nerve-wracking to anticipate that reaction.
    I don't envy that life of a model. Lots of pressure. Thanks, David.💟

    Loved your video. I modeled for a long time in my town but a top model? No. The intention is to sell the outfit you're wearing while showing every angle of it. I was taught not to smile but to walk at a certain pace. I can understand why top models become depressed as there's always a new one who steals the attention. Modeling borders on perfection-- therein lies the depression. Thank you David for this up close and personal look at the behind the modeling scenes.

    It's always the people behind the scenes that work the hardest. Photographers, caterers, makeup artists, personal assistants... etc.

    Clothes always look pretty good on the hanger. I hate seeing models getting thinner and thinner. We get so caught up with what size clothes we are buying that we lose our joy wearing them.

      They are now using plus size models and that's a good thing. I was thin and tall. Still am but the pressure on top models borders craziness. Did you know that most top brand women's clothes are sized smaller( but not when you put them in,) to make a woman feel good? That's called deceit.

    "Choose another job. But it will feel the same. It is just a better mask. You need to be empty inside to be able to work in America". That's what I would have told them, but I can't, because she is dead.

    I follow designers /Cat Walks because I sew. My favorite is "40 years of Armani". It's theater. The walk is out of sync with the music and is slowed down. The details are mesmerizing. Haven't women ALWAYS been "manikins" for men to project their fantasies onto. The trouble starts when you open your mouth. Which, IMO, is why Kamala lost.

      I have always been fascinated with sewing and knitting and crocheting. In my view this trade has always been the best one as anyone who works in it is serving the mankind in terms that clothes protect people against the elements. If they please the eye, they also make the world around beautiful. I enjoy the yarn and the fabrics as well. When I feel depressed I go window shopping - and it has never failed me. Unfortunately, I had to give up the idea of choosing a career in the industry when I was 15 (now I'm 49) because I'm short-sighted. I've kept my passion as a hobby and I have to pause myself. I've never thought of modeling. I cannot relate to models, only to clothes-makers
