Designer, Wenlan Chia, backstage moments before the Spring 2010 Twinkle by Wenlan show. She described the collection as “Dreamy-bohemian with a touch of rock and roll rebellion. The Twinkle woman is a free spirit that follows trends, but is comfortable with her own idea of how to put it all together.”
As Told To Gwen Covington
Models who were hired to walk in the Twinkle show get their picture taken in the look their runway look before the show. A board is made so the girls know what they are wearing, and what order they walk in.
Backstage, before the show, each model has a card attached to the look she will wear. Directions on how the look should be styled are explained on these cards for volunteers called “dressers” to get the models dressed.
