Back in high school, we had a partnership with Gucci. The partnership was kind of random, at least to me because I had no desire to work for Gucci. however, there was one club that I participated in during my sophomore year. An old friend of mine was designing that year and wanted me to model his pieces. I was excited thinking I would be wearing something fitted to my exact measurements, my makeup would go with my undertone.<\/p>\n

Some of this was true, but I ended up having eyeshadow being extremely dark and my hair was slicked back to the point I had a minor facelift. I never go to see the final result of the outfit until one-week before the fashion show. It was a fuzzy vest that barley fit over my shoulders with a matching skirt that was suffocating my hips. It was incredibly difficult to walk in heels when you are restricted in an outfit that makes you look like a teddy bear.<\/p>\n

At the time, I had no clue Gucci was there taking notes. I could barely see the audience since I was being blinded by lights, and I didn’t have my glasses. Apparently, Gucci was sitting front row and saw the way I was struggling to walk across the stage. By the end of the show, I changed back into my regular clothes and expressed that I thought the audience was very small and thought there would be more people. My friend laughed and said Gucci representatives were watching taking notes on each design.<\/p>\n

In a way I was selling myself to a luxury brand. Well, more like the outfit I was in.<\/p>\n

Get a good laugh out of this photo 3 years ago.<\/p>\n
