Modelling in The Design Studio fashion shoot

So recently I modeled in an organised fashion shoot - not for this blog but for a collaboration between up and coming designers The Design Studio (the jackets were TO DIE FOR - get one now) and the student newspaper Cherwell. Having been Fashion Editor for Cherwell in the past, to model in a shoot rather than organize it was much less stressful!

Everyday life and fun are the foundation of Fashion Kazoo. Although the outfits were not exactly in the ball park of everyday life (although gosh I wish I could dress like this all the time (!) - the shoot was LOTS of fun. For those who think modelling is just about standing around staring at a camera......I can assure you, at least for a student shoot, it is not. Getting into 'black tie' mode and 'country gentry' mode was like adopting a new persona from Downton Abbey. Also, fellow Oxford friends + beautiful college + even more beautiful clothes + sweets galore = what more could you want? It was a laugh.

Big shout out to Richard Wakefield for the incredible photography and to TDS for their super jackets which not only looked great but kept us nice and snug in the cold.
