behind the scenes – casting for masatomo spring 2010 show (day 2)

CIMG1276

june 24th – 10:30am: second day of casting for the masatomo ss10 show…

most of the guys who went to milan took the last flight or the night train yesterday and they are now in town, but surprisingly the day is starting quite slowly…since the shows are kicking off tomorrow i assume lots of the guys who only just got back had plenty of fittings to do or last minute call-backs; unless they’re all hanging around with madonna ;-) ! lol

thank god the hotel’s corridor didn’t remain empty for very long and the line started to get considerably consequent…here are the boys!

the cruising speed has now been reached and is not even leaving me time to call the agencies for confirmations…boys, boys, boys, it’s a non stop flow of boys…i don’t wanna hear any other ‘next please’ for at least 5 minutes ! i need a break, pleaaaaaaase i need a break !!!

after seeing tons of different guys from tons of different countries (latvia, slovenia, japan, usa, moldovia, australia, uk, switzerland, romania, germany, korea, czech republic, argentina, denmark, estonia…), after hundreds of ‘thank you very much for coming and have a great day’ the last boy is leaving…

it’s now 9:00pm, time to discuss a couple of doubts with the designer before making the final decisions and calling the agencies for bookings and fitting appointments…at the end of this second full day we’ve got 16 confirmed (out of 18 needed) but don’t ask who they are as it’s a fashion secret and i won’t give any name yet!  come back tomorrow, we’re doing a final morning casting before starting the fittings and revealing the names…
