BLESS nº36 show inParis

BLESS nº36 Nothingneath was the first fashion show I've ever been invited to during Paris fashion week.

I received the invitation at my friend Antoine's house because in Paris you need to give a Parisian address to get your invitations. The first thing I saw when I arrived at my friend's was the envelope with the invitation on his desk...

The show was a surprise, in every sense.
First, because I stumbled upon friends from Madrid and New York by total chance.
Second, because one of the models was a friend of mine that i didn't know she was in Paris let alone modeling for BLESS! And third because of the show itself; it wasn't a show at all and for the first time i felt how a model feel when people stare at her...

The happening took place in a Le Marais's private house where there was an arrange of models situated on the staircase wearing the pieces of the collection. There wasn't time really to stop and look at them (at the pieces), it was a little violent to do so because of the proximity of the models to you; then i realized how safe is to have a catwalk between you and the models... Therefore you could just go up the stairs, have a very fast peak at the clothes while passing by and down again, this time in an elevator. And the show was over.
Susanna Lau was in front of me in the line, all the time... Maybe I should say something to her, but didn't.
