Have you ever wondered what a model casting or model fitting might look like at a top fashion house? Well look no further, Vogue Italia has it ready and waiting to be looked at in their editorial called, The Power of Glamour! And glamorous it is! The editorial features models who are decked out in full makeup and hair, dressed in gorgeous couture gowns with accessories to match. One has to wonder if casting and fittings actually look like this…Male model, Allen Tsai who plays the designer in this spread, looks as though he is channeling Valentino Garavani, Oscar de la Renta, Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang all at once�job well done.

What do all of the female models have in common? Daunting dresses, headpieces and they all seem to be holding numbers… I don’t know if these numbers are supposed to represent looks or models? I guess it’s up to your own interpretation! I have to say that photographer, Steven Meisel did a wonderful job capturing all of the action shots within this editorial�it looks like all of the models are in mid-strut or mid-pose. Some of these models include Herieth Paul, Anais Mali and Kinga Rajzak. That is quite the model lineup and quite the competition in this mock-model casting. I wouldn’t stand a chance next to those beauties!

Check out the rest of this editorial on MyFDB, maybe you’ll feel the power of glamour too!
