SHOWROOM TRANSFORMED INTO A SAMPLE SALE :-)

The showroom has been transformed into yet another sample sale. This sample sale was BIG I mean BIG!!! Literally all the the samples in the cupboards, rails, catwalk and wall boxes were for sale. All the W11 samples had to go in preparation for the new SS12 collection :-)

As you can imagine sample sales can be crazy! Which yes it was. Everyone who works in head office gets to purchase goods for less than a fraction of the retail price. I got my hands on a green parka jacket which I got for £1. Yes £1 arghhhhhhhhh OMG loving it :-) and like me soooo many other people they got to grab a bargain to. OH HOW I LOVE SAMPLE SALES!!!


The day after the sample sale out came the SS12 Footwear. Most will be used at Press Day. They just keep coming down form the buyers upstairs. There were so many boxes.

If only this was my bedroom floor I WOULD BE IN HEAVEN IF I WAS :-) I must say it took what felt like a life time displaying all those shoes like that. Box after box after box. Some of the shoes are amazing defo need a few pairs when they start to come out.

As you can see there are way too many. And this isn't even the half of it. *can't watch*


Luck for me it will not be my last :-p

SHOOT SHOOT PHOTO SHOOT!!!

Such a fun and interesting week. Best day of the week has got to be 15th. Photo shoot with Donovan Pascal (The Designer Director of Idol) for "PREY OF LONDON" @ SNAP STUDIOS.

What an amazing collections. The designs were incredible and made to such perfection. The detail and embellishment was mind blowing. The colour scheme went well and each outfit was thoughtfully  put together.  Here's a sneak peak at their moodboard Shhhhhhhh!!!

There is a rock-chic feel to the designs with stud, leather and feathers. The colour scheme is suited perfect and works well together. Lace and texture makes the collection look edgier than edge. LOL
 
The Model (Anastasija) from Elite Models was fantastic. She knew exactly what she was doing and the photographer loved her every move. She suited everything that was put on her and made the clothes look even better.

 I am so glad I got to be able a part of this experience. The whole team work so well together and you can see the hard work and effort that has gone into each and every garment from designing to making.
The whole day was great (even down to lunch. yuuuum!!!) Will gladly say I will be more than happy to work with Donovan again as I was such a great and understanding time.

Can't say a lot about the collection as the Look Book is for AW12 so my lips are sealed. All I can say is be prepared as this collection will be huge. Defo grabbing my fav pieces when it hits the shelves.  

Truly Amazing :-) x x x

SAMPLE SALE 1!!!

Sample sale prep for the start of the week. This sample sale will take place in the car park. Rails will be brought up from press and displayed in the car park. 10 interns will be taking part which means it is a big sample sale. Setting up the day before means all samples will be gathered; bags, shoes, clothes, jewellery and accessories including womens, mens and kids.
As there were so many interns to help organisation will be key and structure in order for the sample sale to flow with ease.

The day of the sample sale was hectic. Many people from each floor at Head Office came down to grab yet another bargain. Each sample sale is crazy I must say. Clothes end up on the floor, hangers are everywhere and stuff in boxes are all over the place. It started at 11pm and finished around 2pm. All the money gathered will go to charity which the Press team donate to each sample sale we have.

The rest of the week I spent instore doing call ins. Pople from different publications came in such as The Sun and More magazine.

Another week has gone by until next week ;-)
