Lots Of Love For Model.Live

Other than keeping up with new episodes of The Hills and Gossip Girl on the ever trusty Great Stuff TV website, a constant companion on hungover there's-nothing-on-TV evenings, I am hooked on the new mini-series created by Vogue TV and IMG, Model.Live.

At first I was reluctant to check out another reality show concerned with the trials and tribulations of aspiring fashion models; too much trashy TV viewing of the America's Next Top Model variety can leave a bad taste in your mouth. But I became curious when I saw that it was a collaboration of two of the fashion world's leading empires, namely Vogue and IMG Model Management.



It follows the lives of three young models, Austria, Cato and Madeline, as they are catapulted into the unfamiliar, exciting and terrifying world of international modeling, right at the start of the annual Fashion Weeks of New York, London, Milan and Paris.

They each offer a different perspective to the show, but my favorite has to be the Dutch model, Cato Van Ee, pictured above. Not only is she stunning, but her energy, attitude and wonderful personality is truly refreshing.

It has proved to be a real and honest portrayl of their journey and I actually found it a joy to watch, without any of the cattiness or debauchery that usually peppers this type of reality TV programme.

Images were found on The Fashion Spot.

Currently listening to 'I Lust You' by Neon Neon.
