Fashion Week .. it’s always one big crazy adventure, 18 hour days filled with an over indulgence of world class designers baring their heart and soul’s worth of pieces, for the next great season ahead. Recently I travelled to Sydney as part of MBFWA – Sydney fashion week, to cover the week for not only Oracle Fox but other national platforms including the QT Sydney, my go-to place to stay when I’m in town. I’m guessing that you’ve already seen enough show coverage to flood your instagram feed for a year so I thought as part of my wrap up of the week that was, I’d share with you some interesting snippets as to what it takes for this girl and her team to cover Australian Fashion Week ..
– 5 camera’s including one polaroid and 7 lenses –
– 6 team members, including one unofficial tag-along mascot .. thanks Knoxy –
– 15 suitcases, not all mine I promise! Carrying a variety of necessities from sunscreen to Saint Laurent –
– 26 pairs of shoes .. again not all mine, even your photographer needs to feel the part at fashion week! –
– 3 Kilograms of iPhone chargers and battery packs –
– 45 coat-hangers .. it’s a sin to crease the Chloe! –
– 25 car transfers for your’s truly just alone –
– 7 bowls of Gowings Bar and Grill truffle infused french fries with aioli .. seriously you need to try them! –
– 4322 photos taken, from backstage to street, including one editorial for print media –
– and an accurate average of 4.5 hours sleep a night for this work-a-holic fool .. check me into Spa-Q it’s time for some recovery –
So there you go, the fun side of what it takes to make magic and if you’re in Sydney sometime soon I suggest you head to the QT, you might even see me there .. x
