Before the lights went down at Hervé Léger, Modelinia ran into Lissy Trullie backstage at the Mercedes-Benz Star Lounge. As the face of the Fall ‘09 campaign, she was there to show her love and support for the designs. Can we expect to see another campaign in her future? “That’s a question for them,” she joked.
Front row, Marisa Miller positively glowed in her turquoise number with perfectly curly blonde locks, so we had to ask her favorite Hervé Léger memory. “This is a little personal, but this is why I love this dress,” she admitted. “I was getting ready to go to the Ghosts of Girlfriends Past premiere. My husband and I just ate a huge burger from the Roosevelt Hotel, and I was feeling a little like, Oh, maybe I shouldn’t have eaten that huge burger. But then I put on the dress and it just sucked it in! It’s like wearing Spanx. They’re super comfortable. I love them because they’re really classic shapes in beautiful colors. You feel really sexy.”
Sexy is an understatement when it comes to the beyond-tight dresses that were shown on the runway. Continuing on the retro trend, there were one-piece suits, as well as perfect cream dresses with subtle cutout detailing, and a digression into denim material. Modelinia ran into Hanne Gaby Odiele outside of the Tents after the show. Hanne seems to be walking in every show, but is staying rejuvenated by keeping positive. “It was the first time I did this show,” she said. “I felt so sexy!”
