Out of Retirement for Malan Breton

I don’t know who needs to hear this. When I say slipping into a Malan Breton creation brings out the alter ego in oneself, it’s an understatement. I had the honor and privilege of coming out of model retirement to walk in one of the biggest fashion show production by Malan Breton at New York Fashion Week, essentially trading my usual front row seat for the catwalk. Malan requested I bring in one of my hand fans and add some drama! I knew I had one job… to dramatically glide in my assigned breathtaking light as a feather couture ball gown, finished off with a Mimi Monroe fascinator, and deliver! The attire was fitted to perfection, literally like a glove! I felt like a French court lady getting ready to be presented to the Roi de France! What a remarkable feeling it was!

Suffice to say, Malan Breton and I agreed to be tight lipped about my participation in the show. Many of our friends in attendance were puzzled as to who was the dramatic new model on the scene. The surprise added to the fun and experience. The entire collection, in true Malan Breton classic sharp cuts, was cohesive, and dare I say, some of the men’s tailored suits in his trademark silhouettes can be worn by all sexes, essentially gender fluid. Perhaps I’m speaking for myself, because I want them all. What a splendid night to remember. I’m grateful to everyone who sent their videos and pictures to me, which enabled the reel posted on instagram to happen.

Thanks to Malan Breton for having me and for producing such a spectacular production that is second to none! Bravo Malan!
