This episode of the run-through is
0:03
brought to you by eBay. I'm
0:05
Arden Fanning Andrews Vogue's beauty editor
0:07
at large. Everyone's talking about tassels
0:09
right now, and that's the moment that I
0:12
end up typing it into eBay. I found
0:14
the perfect vintage triple-chain belt with
0:16
golden tassels, and it just looks
0:18
so elegant, timeless, and it's on
0:20
the way in the mail to
0:22
me thanks to eBay. This
0:30
is the run-through. I'm Play Mel
0:32
and we are continuing our fashion
0:34
week coverage with a special episode
0:37
with model Amelia Gray She spoke
0:39
to Vogue's willow Lindley and Irene
0:41
Kim and it was such a
0:44
treat. I loved listening to this
0:46
They really painted an incredible scene
0:48
of Amelia being such a good
0:51
sport trying on the incredible undercover
0:53
light up terrarium dress that she
0:55
wore to last year's Met Gala.
0:57
I think a screwdriver was involved
1:00
for Willow, not the cocktail. And
1:02
they also chatted about the incredible
1:04
fashion shows she's walked in, her
1:07
dream runway she would like to
1:09
walk, and also what it's like
1:11
dating as a model. Frought,
1:13
in fact. Amelia, we are so
1:15
happy to have you here at the
1:17
studio. I'm very happy to see you.
1:20
Welcome, it's great to see you again.
1:22
When we first met, actually in this building. Was
1:24
that the first time you'd come to the building?
1:26
Okay, so the first time Amelia and I met,
1:28
we had Amelia come to the World Trade Center
1:30
for the first time and it was ahead of
1:32
the Met Gala last year. It was three days
1:34
ahead of the Met Gala. It was three days
1:36
ahead of the Met Gala. You were fresh off
1:38
a flight from Chanel. Marseille? Yep, yep. And
1:41
we had quite a dress for you to
1:43
try not. The first time I met you,
1:45
you were pretty much on the floor under
1:47
the floor under my floor under my dress.
1:49
Under my dress. Under my dress. Exactly. And
1:51
most dresses don't require screwdrivers in my, you
1:54
know, I've been evoked for 10 years. It
1:56
was the first time I had to ask
1:58
maintenance for a screwdriver. Screwdrivers or... beautiful
2:00
blonde woman on the floor. Looking
2:02
up your skirt. Hi, nice to
2:04
meet you. It's so nice to
2:06
Amelia. Yeah. And Amelia was such
2:08
a trooper because that dress was
2:10
a terrarium. It was an undercover
2:12
dress that was in the exhibition.
2:14
It was actually the dress that
2:16
was the cover of the catalog
2:18
too, which was very impressive. But
2:21
it was an actual terrarium. Actual.
2:23
plexiglass or plastic or a variety
2:25
of things. And you kindly held
2:27
it up while I screwed you
2:29
in from a variety of... Gotta
2:31
help a sister out. You know, and you
2:33
held it together well. And then, do you
2:35
remember what we did after we screwed in
2:37
the dress? We turned the lights on. Well,
2:39
no, we couldn't turn the lights on.
2:41
So there were electrical strips in the
2:44
dress that we couldn't figure out to
2:46
turn on, but we made you go
2:48
to the cafeteria and practice walking up
2:50
and down the stairs. Right. Right. They
2:52
told me don't go to the cafeteria
2:55
because they were like someone's gonna be
2:57
in their metgal off it and you
2:59
can't look. But you know what? It's
3:01
interesting because I don't think many people
3:03
know like the story behind that met
3:06
look and it's interesting that right now
3:08
what is it now it's February and
3:10
I'm already having conversations of the met
3:12
blessed by the way blessed dreams come
3:15
true but last year I didn't have
3:17
conversations about the met until... four days
3:19
before the Met, in which I was
3:22
told that I needed to fly to
3:24
New York and try on this dress.
3:26
Crazy. And that if the dress fit
3:28
me, then I could go. Yes. Very
3:31
Cinderella. I didn't know that they had
3:33
really broken it down that much. Oh,
3:35
they broke it down. Yes. And I
3:37
was just like, you know what? If
3:39
it's meant to be, it's going to
3:41
be. I had no idea what to
3:43
expect. I didn't know if the dress
3:46
would be the size of a pinky
3:48
finger or if it would be huge
3:50
and it ended up actually being quite
3:52
big. Which was nice because I had
3:55
space to put patting and protect my
3:57
hips because it was hard as a
3:59
rock. Yeah, but in an incredible
4:01
memory. And then tell us a
4:04
little bit of the Day of
4:06
the Met experience, because I heard
4:08
there was an electrician involved. God
4:11
bless the Carlyle Hotel. I walked
4:13
into my room, because I actually had
4:15
a photo shoot, also the Day of
4:17
the Met, for Katie Grand, anything for
4:19
Katie. So I woke up at five
4:22
that day, shot, went straight to the
4:24
Carlyle, after shooting. And there was an
4:26
electrician in my room, and he was
4:28
the electrician from the Carlisle. I'm horrible
4:30
with names, and I sadly forgot his
4:32
name, but we love him so much,
4:35
and we made sure we took care
4:37
of him. And he was in my
4:39
room for like... Two hours, like going
4:41
downstairs, getting parts, coming back up,
4:43
going downstairs, coming back up. All
4:46
for the terrarium, dress. All for
4:48
the terrarium. I mean, it was
4:50
incredible, so it was worth it.
4:53
It really was. And speaking of
4:55
experiences, we've been loving, seeing photos
4:58
of you and videos of you, you know,
5:00
Katur, how was it? Katur was
5:02
amazing. I think for me, I still
5:04
can't really wrap my head around the
5:06
fact that I do Katur, and that
5:08
that's my life. I dreamt and I still
5:10
dream of so many things, but that
5:12
being said, I think there were dreams
5:15
that almost felt too far away, if
5:17
that makes sense. I'm very well aware
5:19
of the fact that I'm a nepo
5:21
baby and I'm extremely grateful for that.
5:24
I'm aware of everything that I am,
5:26
but Katoor was just never something
5:28
I thought I would be accepted
5:30
into, so... Jean-Paul Gautier was actually
5:32
my first ever couture show, and
5:35
it was Heider Ackerman. Oh, that's
5:37
a good one. Which was, oh
5:39
my gosh, like, and Heider had
5:41
already been someone that I had
5:43
looked up to so, so much,
5:45
and just like his idea of
5:47
a woman, and I hadn't even
5:49
known him as a human being
5:51
yet, and then it just takes
5:53
it to another level, because he's
5:55
one of the most incredible people,
5:57
I think, in this industry. And
6:00
so to have that moment was just
6:02
insane and then to now continue having
6:04
these insane couture moments I'm still not
6:06
really I don't understand how this is
6:09
my life and that being said I
6:11
really don't understand that I walk Chanel
6:13
Yeah, that's major like I've done I
6:15
think 11 Chanel shows I don't understand.
6:18
There's couture and then there's Chanel couture.
6:20
Every Chanel coutur. We see your runway
6:22
phone. I don't get it. I don't
6:24
get it like how is like it's
6:26
so insane to me and I love
6:29
what I do so much. Like to
6:31
be able to do all these different
6:33
runways and couture for brands
6:35
that I felt were too big to
6:37
dream about is just crazy. And
6:40
it's like pinched me, wake me up
6:42
from the dream, you know? You're fitting
6:44
at Vogue World, actually, which happened during Last
6:46
Katoor. Oh my gosh. It was one of
6:48
my faith. You were wearing Chanel. Exactly. And
6:51
your excitement over that dress. I mean, we
6:53
were doing a million fittings a day in
6:55
the Westin, and it was such a crazy
6:57
environment. And it was, you know, what's so
7:00
great is it can start to feel a
7:02
bit run of the mill, right? You're just
7:04
doing fittings, and you're... busy and you're running
7:06
around and then you come in and you
7:09
were such a ray of sun and you
7:11
were so excited about the dress and you
7:13
were so excited that the Chanel team
7:15
was there fixing the beating and it
7:18
was very special to watch your reaction
7:20
to that 1920s vintage dress. It was
7:22
a recreation of a vintage dress. Right,
7:25
which was insane. Thank you for saying
7:27
that. You know, I think it's really
7:29
interesting because the career that I have
7:31
and the industry that I'm in, it's
7:34
not usually one that people choose. Almost
7:36
every girl's story is I was walking
7:38
on the street and someone scouted me.
7:40
But that's completely opposite to my story. I
7:43
scouted everyone else. Like I had already
7:45
known that this is what I wanted
7:47
to do since I was five years
7:49
old. I have no idea why. I
7:51
swear like I have this intuitive
7:53
feeling that like either I was a
7:55
model in my past life and I died
7:57
like maybe Gia. Okay, don't come for me.
7:59
I'm just saying. Just an
8:02
idea. We're just spit-blowing. It's
8:04
just an idea. Okay, and
8:06
Many Lives, Many Masters, my
8:08
new favorite book, this one
8:10
woman has had 86 lives,
8:12
I'm just saying. Okay. It could
8:15
have been one. Yeah. But that
8:17
being said, I went out and
8:19
had to like find everyone. And
8:21
so my story is different, and
8:23
I think that... I don't really understand
8:25
how a lot of the girls don't
8:28
feel the same way that I do,
8:30
because to me it's so exciting and
8:32
it's my dream and it's what I
8:35
love to do and I could not
8:37
imagine doing anything really else. I
8:39
mean, I feel really lucky that I
8:41
love what I do. My dad always
8:43
said, if you love what you do.
8:46
you'll never work a day in your
8:48
life. Love that. I love that. And
8:50
it's so nice to meet fashion obsessives,
8:52
I think. I think we all can
8:54
get busy and it can feel like
8:56
a lot and it's so nice to
8:58
remember why we're here. Exactly. And I
9:00
don't think I'm necessarily obsessed with fashion
9:02
in itself, which is interesting, because I
9:04
was reading this interview that Lata did
9:06
and I'm not sure her exact verbatim,
9:08
but she said something like, like, I
9:10
just love, love clothes or something
9:12
like that or something like that.
9:14
I don't really care about clothes
9:16
that much. I love the art and
9:19
collaborative experience that
9:21
takes place in fashion,
9:24
and I love women. And I
9:26
think that, I mean, it's true
9:28
that fashion is one of
9:30
the only industries where women
9:32
make more and are sort
9:34
of on the pedestal more.
9:36
And I think that that's
9:39
such a beautiful thing, and
9:41
that's also why I love doing
9:43
it. And I love the people. There's
9:45
good people in fashion. Yeah. Before
9:47
we move on, I do want to
9:49
ask, are you excited for Heiders Tom
9:52
Ford? Because you brought him up. I
9:54
am so excited for Heiders Tom Ford.
9:56
You know, it's funny because I have
9:58
been to the Tom Ford. casting every
10:01
single time I land in Milan
10:03
since my career started and I have
10:05
gotten so close to getting it they
10:07
fit me in clothes this and that
10:10
no no and I've never gotten it
10:12
because it's always just been one person
10:14
doesn't support me which is fine I
10:17
love a challenge like make it harder
10:19
for me because it's so boring if
10:21
you get everything all at once like
10:23
that You know, careful what I wish
10:26
for, I need to like, careful what
10:28
I put out there, but you know,
10:30
you have to work for things.
10:32
And I think that, hopefully, I can
10:34
finally do Tom Port. Crossing a year!
10:37
Man investing. And it's in Paris, so
10:39
that's exciting. Oh my gosh, wait, I
10:41
didn't know that. You heard it for
10:44
first? Yeah. So Vogue France did a
10:46
really fun video with you where they
10:48
spent 24 hours with you and you
10:51
said before you go on the runway
10:53
you like to channel a character. Who
10:55
are some of the characters you channel
10:57
and you know what are you thinking
11:00
about in your mind when you're
11:02
walking? You know the character is
11:04
all dependent on the outfit that
11:06
I'm given and I think that
11:08
I was raised obviously in a household
11:11
of actors but that being said I
11:13
was also Raised to be an
11:15
actress I was forced I really
11:17
did not like this growing up,
11:20
but I'm so grateful for it
11:22
now I was forced to do
11:24
plays I have done like 11
11:26
or 12 musicals and I always
11:28
played a man Who's your favorite
11:31
man? I played um Teddy
11:33
Roosevelt For Annie, was that
11:35
the Roosevelt that was in
11:37
Annie? I was in a
11:39
wheelchair and then for High
11:42
School Musical, my sister was
11:44
Troy Bolton and I was
11:46
Mr. Fulton. I love that's
11:48
amazing. The way that I
11:51
work is just very like
11:53
an actor in the sense that
11:55
like no runway that I go
11:57
on is ever really the same.
12:00
I don't really think about my walk
12:02
ever, unless it was like the Chanel
12:04
show for Katoor that we did last
12:06
week was probably one of the hardest
12:08
shows I've ever done in my career
12:10
because it was uphill. And so both
12:13
of the seas were uphill and then
12:15
downhill and we had to. do both seas.
12:17
So we did that essentially four times
12:19
because the show is twice. So my
12:21
shinsplins were like on fire because we
12:23
couldn't bend our knees going uphill because
12:25
we had to look shanel. So it's
12:27
like going uphill in a poised way
12:29
and manner. So that is hard. And
12:31
when it's hard, I'm in my head and
12:34
I have weird thoughts. Just kind of like
12:36
Amelia, you got this, you're almost done. Like
12:38
you can breathe, you can breathe at the
12:40
end, like just hold it. But like, like,
12:42
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
12:45
like, like, like, like, like, I didn't have
12:47
anything going through my mind during
12:49
it and I think that's when
12:52
it's really such a beautiful experience
12:54
and an energizing experience when it's
12:56
just like you put the outfit on
12:59
and the character is already in
13:01
you. It's not even like I'm
13:03
necessarily thinking about the character that
13:05
I'm going to portray, it's all
13:07
about the outfit and that is
13:09
the character. And so I think that
13:11
when I'm really passionate about an
13:13
outfit... then it just makes the
13:16
experience so much more beautiful and
13:18
authentic to me. But you never
13:20
really know what you're going to
13:22
get when you go out there. It's
13:25
always different than rehearsal. I'm always like,
13:27
listen, I'm going to do my best,
13:29
but we're going to wing it. We're
13:31
going to wing it. We're going to
13:33
wing it. And yeah. Do you try
13:35
to like see your mom from the
13:37
corner of your eyes? I tried, but
13:39
you know, she didn't warn me that
13:41
she was wearing a blonde, insane
13:43
wig. There was a different
13:45
woman there. Yeah, and your mom, she
13:48
said she cried when she watched you,
13:50
which was so sweet. Like, is it
13:52
like comforting to have your mom at
13:55
the shows? And she's always here. You
13:57
guys are shopping, eating. She's like,
13:59
yeah, like. I am so beyond
14:01
grateful. to have her as a
14:03
mother in this life. And I
14:05
truly do believe that I chose
14:08
her. I don't know if those
14:10
are your guys' beliefs, but that
14:12
is mine. Like, I chose this
14:14
woman to be my mom. But
14:16
side note, my dad doesn't get
14:19
enough credit and he's great too.
14:21
Love him, love him, takes two.
14:23
It's pasta sauce. I had it
14:25
last night. It's so good. It's
14:28
so good. I can see your
14:30
mom last night. I know. Oh
14:32
my God. for the two of
14:35
you. That'd be cute.
14:37
Great. More with Amelia
14:39
Gray after a quick
14:42
break. I
14:53
like eBay for one-of-a-kind items, things
14:55
that feel limited edition, or collections
14:57
that can't be found in stores.
14:59
And with the eBay Authenticity Guarantee,
15:01
I know that when it arrives,
15:03
it's real. It is a piece
15:05
that is coming from the Designers
15:07
Collection, the Designers Archive. One of
15:10
the biggest conversation points for some
15:12
of the parties that I'll go
15:14
to during Fashion Week are the
15:16
pieces that I'm getting off of
15:18
eBay. Everyone's a little bit intrigued
15:20
and excited whenever they
15:23
hear that you were
15:25
able to find something on
15:27
this digital treasure hunt. We
15:29
had such a blast on
15:32
the subway. On the subway? Can
15:34
I break the news that
15:36
it was your first subway
15:38
ride on this podcast? Well, technically
15:40
it was my ticket. But the
15:43
first with your sister. I'm
15:45
going to get so much
15:47
shit for that. No, the
15:49
first of your sister. You're a
15:51
new New Yorker. Yeah. But
15:53
also, now people have been
15:55
seeing the news. Guys. Oh, no, I... I
15:57
want to live. I love my life. I know.
15:59
Yeah, we talk. Sometimes I walk, and
16:02
I walk further down to Brooklyn, so
16:04
I'm on the subway for as little
16:06
time as possible. It's scary. So I
16:08
need to take the ferry with you
16:11
now that I'm a BK girl. Exactly.
16:13
So we're BK girls, but this, we
16:15
had a really fun, it was for
16:17
our February issue, and we went down
16:19
into that subway. You and Delilah.
16:22
Yep. It was so fun. Our
16:24
first vogue shoot together. We were
16:26
gossiping about boys. Yeah. The entire
16:28
time. Have a lot to tell
16:30
you by the way. I'm so
16:32
excited. Off air conversation. And we
16:34
had so much fun. You almost
16:36
touched the ground of the subway.
16:38
You know, I was going to
16:41
just like harp on that for
16:43
a second because it's so funny
16:45
because when I'm myself, like when
16:48
I'm Amelia, just a girl. I
16:50
am so afraid of germs and I
16:52
don't like being dirty and I
16:54
don't like weird feelings on my
16:56
body. Like I don't like to
16:58
be all oily and weird and
17:00
like dirty. But when I'm
17:02
Amelia Gray at work, nothing matters.
17:04
Tell me why I was touching
17:07
every single subway rail. I could
17:09
have rolled around. You were rolling
17:11
around. I have video. Yeah, I
17:13
was rolling around. Yeah. I touched
17:16
everything. I would never do that.
17:18
Do I want to lay down? She laid
17:20
down. I mean, there's some crazy things that
17:22
I do, that I would never do in
17:24
my real life. Well, the photos came out
17:26
great, so. And just in case you thought
17:29
we'd shut down a subway car, there were
17:31
other riders. Right. We went three
17:33
stops? Maybe four. Maybe four. Yeah.
17:35
It was probably the first time
17:37
seeing a supermodel and Prada. Right.
17:39
Yeah, Irene was very nervous that we'd taken
17:42
the Prada looks and the Burberry look on
17:44
your sister on the subway. Irene was having
17:46
him on the top of the clothes. Yeah,
17:48
I was like, did like, like, like, Mark,
17:50
like, sometimes you sit on the subway and,
17:52
like, you sit on water. No, it was,
17:55
we took some clean cards, but it's also
17:57
interesting because I'm so shy in my real
17:59
life. Right. I don't want people looking at me
18:01
and I don't want to cause a scene
18:03
and I don't like trespassing or doing things
18:05
that aren't right, but then it's like, here
18:07
I am. On the subway, I mean, I
18:09
did a way crazier thing. than the subway
18:12
last week in Paris, where I
18:14
was painted gold, head-to-toe naked at
18:16
the Pompey-Doo Museum, and I had
18:18
to go to Gautier in an
18:20
hour, and now I'm painted gold,
18:22
and I ran through the Pompey-Doo
18:24
Museum with Louis Vuitton murkle bags
18:26
covering my boobs. There were people
18:29
in the museum. There were children,
18:31
and I'm pretty sure I traumatized
18:33
them, and everyone saw that, but to me
18:35
when I'm at work... Nobody's watching
18:37
me. I don't care. You're in
18:40
the zone. I'm in the zone.
18:42
You're in a character. But if
18:44
that was like my real life,
18:46
painted gold naked, I would have
18:48
cried. It's a weird way to
18:50
go to a museum if you're
18:52
just like strolling through on a
18:54
Sunday. Right. But no judgment. I
18:56
mean, you do you. Speaking of
18:58
children, you haven't traumatized kids.
19:01
And they had seen a picture of
19:03
you. as violet from the Incredibles. Oh
19:05
my God, and Candace was showing her
19:07
son a picture of me on the
19:10
plane, being like, this is who we're
19:12
gonna work with, whatever, and it was
19:14
the violet picture of me. And he
19:16
was like, Mommy, does she have superpowers?
19:19
So he came up to me and
19:21
he was like... So cute. Do you
19:23
have your superpowers with you? And I
19:25
was like, you know, I need my
19:28
suit to have my invisible bubble powers.
19:30
But next time I promise him that
19:32
next time I see him, I will
19:34
have my suit in my powers. So
19:37
Candas, I can never see your son
19:39
again. It's off the table. Yes. That
19:41
is the cutest story ever. But maybe
19:44
next Halloween, you can dress up, Ben.
19:46
Go right. Yeah, I need
19:49
to like figure out
19:51
the superpower part. Yeah,
19:53
but yeah The run-through
19:55
will be back in
19:58
just a moment Do
20:09
you have a Valentine Amelia?
20:11
Maybe. Yeah, maybe. But drop some
20:14
hints. Yes. The thing about
20:16
this industry is it's very
20:18
adjacent similar to high school. Yeah. And
20:20
I went to an all-girl school and
20:22
I kept thinking to myself, why did
20:25
I go to an all-girl school? Like
20:27
what was my lesson in going to
20:29
an all-girl school because I really hated
20:32
that. And now I realize... It was
20:34
to prep me for the all-girl school
20:36
that is my life. Yeah. Which is
20:38
great. But I think that it's interesting
20:41
navigating this industry because it's similar to
20:43
high school in the sense that you
20:45
feel like you need to be friends
20:48
with... all the people at your school
20:50
and you need to sit with
20:52
the cool girls at lunch and
20:54
no no no no no and
20:56
I did that I've dated people
20:58
in the industry I'm very private
21:00
about my dating life after one
21:03
situation that I had so I
21:05
learned a lot but you know
21:07
I don't think I'll ever do
21:09
that again yeah it's hard you
21:11
have to go to school with
21:13
them again and you know we
21:15
change in front of each other.
21:17
And that's really awkward when you're
21:19
broken up with someone to see
21:21
them naked and have them see
21:24
you naked. So that's interesting. Yeah.
21:26
This industry is very interesting and...
21:28
It definitely forces an issue. Yeah,
21:31
and you know, just the people from
21:33
the outside have no idea. No. Like,
21:35
sometimes I'm just like, the comments that
21:37
I get on Tik Talk and the
21:40
things, I'm just like, you guys have
21:42
no idea. Oh, I love. And it's
21:44
important to find someone who also travels
21:46
a lot, I feel, because it's really
21:49
hard to be in a relationship when
21:51
you're the only person leaving, because that's
21:53
like a whole weird guilt thing, and
21:55
like, you just need someone that's as
21:58
busy as you, if not busy. and
22:00
so I'm not the only one
22:02
leaving or unable to participate. To
22:04
participate, which is really nice, and
22:06
I think it's just all about,
22:08
yeah, finding someone who has a
22:10
similar life to you, but that isn't
22:12
a model. Okay, good advice. Yeah,
22:15
I like that. I mean, you're
22:17
very introspective and very positive, which
22:19
I really appreciate, because I think
22:21
as a model and as someone
22:23
who works in fashion, it's a... I
22:25
don't want to say it's a negative industry,
22:28
but it is a small world, right?
22:30
And it is a bit of a
22:32
clicky girl's school sometimes. Very much. Not
22:34
just the girls. But I think it's
22:36
really important to keep such a positive
22:38
attitude, and I appreciate your positive attitude.
22:41
Thank you, Alle. Is there anything that
22:43
you do to keep that up? Because
22:45
I'm sure not every day is some
22:48
beams and roses. No. It can be
22:50
hard, you know. I think that... a
22:52
support system, a beautiful support
22:54
system, a positive support system
22:57
is so important and I'm
22:59
really blessed to have such
23:01
a strong beautiful group of
23:03
amazing women around me. My
23:05
mom raised me and it
23:08
was so annoying growing up,
23:10
like, think positively, think positively,
23:12
think positively, and sometimes I was
23:14
like, but mom, I'm angry. I don't
23:16
want to. There's little things that I
23:18
say to myself that I do, rituals
23:20
that I have to keep on track,
23:22
and I think that, you know, rejection
23:25
is hard for anyone in any industry,
23:27
but I think it's all about perspective.
23:29
In my career, I've always been a
23:31
yes person, right? So if you say
23:33
yes to doing things, you tend to
23:35
learn. new skills that you don't even
23:37
know exist. I'm a big yes person
23:39
and it gets me in trouble sometimes.
23:41
Sometimes my agents are like, why are
23:43
you gold in the pumpidoo naked? You have
23:46
an hour to get to the show. We got
23:48
to get that gold off. It was a whole
23:50
thing. Three people had to help me shower. I
23:52
showered in the security corridors of the pumpidoo. It
23:54
was like intense. But you still made it. I
23:57
need to write a book. No kidding. Because I
23:59
have done some. weird stuff yeah and then
24:01
I had to go to the doctor
24:04
yesterday because turns out I'm like allergic
24:06
to whatever they put on me the
24:08
gold paint yes oh no it's like
24:11
really toxic I'm scary yeah I mean
24:13
I used one I mean I think
24:15
they used one that was fine but
24:17
I don't know like The Wizard of
24:20
Oz has some crazy stories about being
24:22
being gold. And I didn't really think
24:24
about it in the moment. They also
24:27
asked Pate Me Silver at the end
24:29
of the shoot. By that time it
24:31
was 3 a.m. And it was the
24:34
last day. That was like a couple
24:36
days ago. Yeah, anyways. Yeah, I do
24:38
some crazy things. Would you ever have
24:41
like cameras follow you around? You know,
24:43
it would great make for a great
24:45
reality show. But... I think it's not
24:48
my it's not my path in this
24:50
life for now at least I think
24:52
it's almost interesting that people don't really
24:55
know my personality and and I like
24:57
that like people have so many ideas
24:59
of me on the internet which we
25:02
could go into for hours and it's
25:04
it's so it's weird when people try
25:06
to tell you who you are And
25:09
it's scary because sometimes you can start
25:11
believing it, especially in a case that
25:13
I've had for the past couple years
25:16
that have a lot to do with
25:18
my eyebrows. Really? I love that you
25:20
don't know. I have no idea. I'm
25:22
so sorry. Irene knows. She's nodding. She's
25:25
nodding. Everyone knows. And that has been,
25:27
what was I talking about? I don't
25:29
know, but that has been really hard
25:32
for me being told who I am.
25:34
That I do things and no no
25:36
because you can really start to believe
25:39
these people and like I Don't know
25:41
I like to keep my personality and
25:43
my heart private because People are so
25:46
mean, but it's also almost like this
25:48
fun little game like everyone thinks that
25:50
I'm going to be so horrible and
25:53
like Diva on set or like when
25:55
they meet me and then people meet
25:57
me and it's like I have this
26:00
opportunity to change their mind about me
26:02
because everything that they had in their
26:04
head was like this false made up
26:07
just like perspective of me that doesn't
26:09
exist. Is that because you're a model
26:11
or because you grew up in an
26:14
industry around reality TV? That's because I
26:16
grew up in an industry around reality
26:18
TV and people just want to not
26:21
like me. Yeah. You know, and but
26:23
like I said I love a challenge.
26:25
Yeah. I was going to say, do
26:27
you like a low expectation? Do you
26:30
like just... Yeah, yeah. Because I was...
26:32
It's funny, because I was talking to
26:34
Guido the other day at the Goate
26:37
Show. I was showing him a video
26:39
of me painted gold, because I was
26:41
late, obviously, to the show. Right. Because
26:44
I was gold. Because you were showing
26:46
a security quarter. Right. And I was
26:48
showing Guido and everyone, like this video
26:51
of me running through the Pomby-Doo gold.
26:53
I'll show you after. But at the
26:55
same time... I love
26:57
that. But you're particularly nice to work
27:00
with. Yeah, and you should know that.
27:02
Well, thanks to my mom and my
27:04
dad. They raised me really well, and
27:06
it's all about, it comes down to
27:08
loving what you do. So here's the
27:11
happiness going into Fashion Month. Here's the
27:13
happiness. And loving what you do. Yeah.
27:15
Yeah. That's
27:25
it for the run-through. See
27:27
you tomorrow, everyone. The run-through
27:29
is produced by Chelsea Daniel,
27:32
Alex DePalma, and Joanna Solatara.
27:34
It's engineered by Jake Lumis
27:36
and James Yost. It is
27:39
mixed by Mike Kutchman. Stephanie
27:41
Kariyuki is our executive producer,
27:44
and Chris Bannon is Condonast's
27:46
head of global audio. The
27:58
other day I like on a real
28:00
real spree. There's this huge
28:02
push for like 80s opulence and 80s
28:04
sort of and we're going to we're
28:06
going to see that returning. I
28:08
And so I was already
28:10
kind of tapped into that
28:12
just from my gorgeous my gorgeous
28:14
eBay And I found a
28:16
really beautiful beautiful from the the 80s
28:18
and a a really great killed bees
28:20
great to your boots and your boots them
28:22
all I'm combining them all
28:24
together. Sometimes trend forecasting doesn't
28:26
require something that's going to be be like.
28:28
in the future. Sometimes you can
28:30
like tap into the past and tap
28:32
into the archive as well. the That's
28:35
what makes eBay a fun place
28:37
to actually discover things because you're not
28:39
going in with something so specific
28:41
in mind, but you have an idea
28:43
of what you're interested in or
28:45
what you're excited about you're know, just know
28:47
just trend forecasting. And so
28:49
one thing that I would say people
28:51
should be watching out for out for
28:53
opulent opulent 80 style. From
28:57
PRX.
