So, after weeks of behind the scenes work with the Lovely Adam & Simon Ryan the day is now finally upon us!
This is my first appearance at this event, and despite my previous reservations about Essex Fashion week I have to say that I am super excited to be invited!
With my bestie Jeff Brazier opening the show and amazing sponsors this year such as Amy Childs, boohoo.com, Heart FM, Be Somebody, Kosho, RM Mag plus many more I am pretty sure we are going to be in for one hell of a show…
From speaking to all of the team I can see a real passion for fashion, and their dedication to making every last little detail perfect themselves is inspiring, especially considering that they all hold down regular jobs to help finance the events.
It is the assumption of some that Essex Fashion week is just another excuse for the population of Essex to come together for a glitz & glam party, and while I am sure there will be a massive element of this involved… for the boys it is really about putting on a great show and showcasing some amazing brands that wouldn’t normally make it to London Fashion week – which while I love, isn’t always affordable for the every day fashionista on the street.
My prep started last week when I was spray tanned for the first time by the lovely Elaine from Trinitia, who are the official tanners at EFW this year, tanning all of the models and many of the celebs in attendance! You will find more about Elaine and Trinitia over on my beauty blog later this week!
Unfortunately due to a stinking migraine yesterday I was unable to get my top-up tan, although luckily there is still a bit of colour there – now all I need to do is work out what the hell to wear and with my P.I.C and stylist Kalee Hewlett on a shoot abroad its gonna be a tough one!!!
The after party looks to be a corker with Donaeo performing so I am really excited to find my friends from Muse TV on the dance floor and chilling out after with a cocktail or two...
Follow my twitter @KateVonBroad to get updates throughout the day and Check back here to see how the event went later this week – after I have recovered from the party of course!
