Hey there! I worked an event thurs. night called Celebrity Catwalk. It was at the nightclub in the Hollywood and Highlands Center. The center is amazing by the way, if you ever get a chance to walk around there, do it! There is an entrance to the famous Chinese theatre there as well. The event was to raise money for animal awareness and rescue. Celebrities and models come to walk the runway and everyone has a good time. This year it was hosted by former Girl's Next Door Bridget Marquardt. Also there was the new three girls of the Girl's Next Door and Mr. Hugh Heffner himself. They were filming, so all of us had to sign waivers. The other models/celebs. there are up and coming so I had a hard time recognizing everyone there. 

All of us working (mostly FIDM students) got to work behind the curtain as dressers. Everyone got assigned to a rolling rack of clothes with a model's name on it to help them dress for the scene the were walking. There were multiple scenes and clothing changes and LOTS of people running around. As far as I could tell, there was only one Stylist who coordinated all of it. Wow. Impressive. I would not want that solo responsibility without help. My friend and I were on props duty. We got to work backstage and see everything happening without being totally immersed in the mess of steaming and dressing. The props never ended up being used, so she and I got a free pass to observe backstage and then watch the show. 

The event ended up being a hit and it was a good experience to put on the resume. Unfortunately, we were not allowed to bring cameras so I don't have any pictures to post. The link to their website is http://www.celebritycatwalk.com/ if anyone wants more info. Stay tuned!
