The team at Model Advice has loved every last minute of the most recent incarnation of London Fashion Week so we thought we’d bring you our favourite, most interesting and most controversial model bits!
London is renowned for it’s quirky, eclectic and sometimes controversial fashion talent and this year didn’t disappoint… let’s see what the designers and stylists put the models through this year!
FYODOR GOLAN
Fyodor Golan’s London Fashion Week catwalk saw the lights dramatically go out part-way through the show as a single model strutted up the catwalk – when she was halfway down the lights burst back to life to reveal this stunningly glittered model!
The big news in UK modelling today in the lead up to London Fashion Week is that the directors of some of the biggest modelling agencies in the UK – including Storm, Elite, Next, Premier Model Management, Oxygen and Union – have banned the use of sunbeds by their models.
The ‘No Sunbed Policy’ is an initiative that has been launched in support of Cancer Research UK’s ‘UV UGLY’ campaign designed to worn Britons of the health risks of using sunbeds.
Each of the models featured on our Workshop flyers have been in for one of our Model Advice Day shoots and impressed us so much we wanted to show them off to everyone!
Dimosthenis Xenidis (22 years old)
One of the most expressive models we have ever had in front of our cameras (as you can see from the flyer image!) He was full of personality and confidence in front of the camera showing great versatility as a model… we look forward to seeing where modelling may take him …
Charlotte Stevens (18 years old)
Stunning Charlotte was a natural in front of the camera. Very relaxed and professional and took direction very well to produce some beautifully natural images.
Chelsea Campey (17 years old)
Unique and beautiful Chelsea brought her own strong sense of style to her shoot day. Her confidence in front of the camera teamed with her lovely posing made for some beautiful images.
