VOGUE.COM

Well this was an extremely nice surprise that made all my hard work feel worth while, knowing that I had worked behind the scenes at a show that got such a wonderful article on Vogue.com!!!WOW!

It got me wondering if I had in fact spoken to Leisa Barnett who wrote the article below when trying to sell the raffle tickets!...

A Whisky Tryst

11 September 2008, 12:20PM

A CELEBRATION of all things woman was happening in the dark enclaves of hip London club Whisky Mist at Zeta last night, as eco-clothing label People Tree hooked up in serendipitous style with "ethical" modelling agency Quintessentially Models to stage its first catwalk show.

Girls in key looks from People Tree's (notably impressive) autumn/winter 2008-9 collection - think shot silk shifts in jewel hues, hooded capes teamed with harem pants, knit cape cardigans, pussybow blouses and pinafores - took to the floor brandishing placards with slogans such as "Power to the people" as an exuberant crowd looked on.

Leah and Jo Wood dropped by to enjoy the cocktails and beauty treatments on offer and provide a little support to Eleni Renton, the entrepreneurial founder of the agency which just six months ago launched itself onto the fashion scene with a promise to use only girls that meet its strict health requirements. And it's working - the models' catwalk credentials are already flawless, judging by last night's performance, and they have been shot for some of the world's top fashion magazines, including Vogue.
