With only one day
to go until the launch of London Fashion Week, the all-important model casting
for Vauxhall Fashion Scout SS13 took place today at our location, Freemason’s
Hall; accompanied by our sponsors SNOG Frozen Yoghurt, who supplied everyone with
delicious refreshments throughout the day.
From the moment
the doors were opened our designers were spoilt for choice; as a sea of
beautiful girls filtered into the building to demonstrate their proficiency in
the all-important “catwalk walk”.
Vauxhall Fashion
Scout spoke to the wonderful Rebekah Roy, stylist and mentor to the
Ones-To-Watch designers, about their vision for the models they were hoping to
cast;
“Because we have got four designers, we have to have
a shared vision. We have been looking
for girls who have longer hair, are clean-faced and a nice height; in a sense,
quite typical. All the designers have
really wonderful visions, but they are also open to growing and developing: we
have some clear guidelines of what we’re looking for, but then sometimes you
might see someone unusual who may change the casting for you.”
In order to find
out who was chosen for the final shows, keep following the Vauxhall Fashion
Scout blog.
