The 2nd Women's Fashion Week & High Quality Fashion of France 2012 at Singapore
fashion show kicked off last night. This is the second year the fashion
show is held in Singapore. Charmaine Sheh was extremely excited to be
able to participate in the fashion show as a model and greatly praised
Beijing-based fashion designer Guo Pei's beautiful designs and her works
of art. Charmaine did the catwalk in a floor-dragging Chinese-styled
dress and admitted her height did not compare to the other models.
Fortunately, the stage atmosphere and music accommodated her catwalk,
allowing her to feel the surge. She laughed: "At the time, I didn't
think about anything, I was just very proud of myself. However, the tail
of my dress was so long and heavy. I could easily fall, so I had to be
very careful and startling by each step. During rehearsal, a lot of
models fell down, therefore must be extra careful and take each step
slowly."
Since Charmaine's debut, she had little catwalk
experience, so this time it was especially memorable for her. She and
designer Guo Pei chatted nonstop and even set up their next meeting in
Beijing, Charmaine said: "She's so nice, very attentive and she knew I
was on a tight schedule. As soon as I got off the flight, she took me
try out the dress and accompanied me the entire time. My dress was
tailored to fit me, and wasn't completed until 2 or 3am." Although the
two spent a short amount of time together, Charmaine learned Guo Pei
loves beauty, every time she sees a model dressed in her designs, she
would be very happy. How would Guo Pei evaluate Charmaine? She laughed:
"She said I did well and had great momentum. I was happy to hear this
because I don't have enough experience in this area after all and
walking in that dress was a challenge for me."
