Diary of a Model: A Day at the Chloe Show

Kim Kardashian had actually come to watch the rehearsals of the show and so she came backstage and helped me take my boot off, which was a moment to say the least.

Introduction

Hi, Vogue. It's Lila Moss. Today I'm bringing You with me to the Chloe show. But before that, come get ready with me. Come up, my call time is at nine thirty. Ah, this is my first time walking in a Chloe show. I'm so excited. I've always been a big fan, so this is a really special moment.

Getting Ready for the Show

Pre-show Rituals

Yesterday we did a fitting for the show and I got to meet Gabriela, which was really amazing. She's really sweet. One Second, before a show I love to do these 11Skin eye patches. I also love doing them on planes. Any like early morning or when I'm just feeling a bit tired, and they're golden and sparkly and cute. I definitely have croissant all over my lips. I prefer a Pain au chocolat to a plain croissant, anything with chocolate really is good for me. This is ASMR. Oh look, it's everywhere. Crumbs in the bed, shhh. She's ready.

Meeting Gabriela

I'm gonna get dressed. I like to wear shoes with a little bit of a platform because I will probably be the shortest girl at the show today. I didn't mean to match the vibe of the hotel, but I have to say I did a pretty good job blending it. I'm drinking some English breakfast tea because I'm a Brit at heart, even when in Paris. One really funny backstage memory moment that I've had, we were in Rome for Fendi couture, and me and my mom were sharing a dressing room, and my boots were like really high leather. So they were sticking to my leg and they were so hard to get off, and Kim Kardashian had actually come to watch the rehearsals of the show and so she came backstage and helped me take my boot off. Which was a moment to say the least.

Personal Facts Revealed

Not Watching Harry Potter

We're going to get a matcha. Okay, something I don't wish people knew about me is that I haven't actually seen Harry Potter. It's like a secret. No, like when I admit it, it's like to people I really trust.

Fantasy vs. Realism

Fantasy, fantasy. Especially fantasy books. Not for me. I'm a realist. Can't do it. When people first meet me and I have this out, it like connects to my Pod and I control my insulin with it, but I tell everyone it's a bat phone. The only thing I'd heard about diabetes was in Hannah Montana when Oliver gets diagnosed with diabetes. That was my only like Insight into it ever. When they told me I was kind of just like, in shock I was just like, I didn't, I don't even know what that means. And then like the reality sets in of like you're gonna have this forever, and you are like whoa, that's intense. But honestly, I've come to live with it. It's kind of fun. Like I call myself a robot with all my little things. Merci beaucoup. It's sunny today, yay. Can I get a matcha Latte with almond milk please? Thank you so much.

Fashion and Style Influences

Mother's Advice

Souvenir. My mom's advice is mostly that less is more. I think makeup wise, outfit wise, I think her other biggest thing is like, just being kind to everyone, be nice. It's so funny because I would copy her outfits consistently, like always wearing black and gray, like skinny jeans, dressing like her. And now I come out in my outfits and she'll be like, oh my God, I'm so jealous. You look so cute. I'm like, it's all yours. I steal. I think mostly her bags, this isn't hers, but I can't steal her shoes, which is devastating because she's a size six and I'm a size five, and it's one of my biggest regrets.

Early Photography Experience

Cover Shoot with Tim Walker

I remember my first photo shoot, it was a cover for Days, with Tim Walker, which I thought was incredible, and I didn't actually tell anyone, but I'd been studying him at school in photography and knew everything about him and his work, and I was so nervous and my mom came with me, and I made her sit downstairs the whole time. She wasn't allowed to watch. I was just like secretly in my head being like, oh my god, oh my god, Oh my god. But he just made it come to life. Even with like a frozen mannequin.

Exploring Paris

Going to Center Pompidou

Going to Center Pompidou. Let's go. Normally I'm a Google maps queen, but today I'm distracted. Bonjour. Lila Moss. I got in my robe, now we're ready to go get hair and makeup. Thank you so much.

Show Rehearsal

Closing the Show

• You're welcome.
• Practicing.
• Massage.
• This is how you make friends.
• Yes.
• We're doing a low ponytail off the face.
• A low pony is perfect.
• Exactly.

My dad is attending the show, which is fun. When I have my parents watching the show, it makes me wanna make them proud, but it's also like more pressure I feel. Sometimes they cheer and it distracts me and I'm like, please don't do that. But it's sweet, it's sweet.

Walking the Runway

Hi. How are you? I'm good, how are you? So, we're going into makeup. I just got a little gift bag. Do you live in London? Yeah. Well, I'm between London and New York. Oh yeah, I'm in the West Village. West Village, cool. I love it. Yeah, you have to have a good support group or you just have to be really tough. If you don't have a good support group, in New York, you need like a good friend group that's like ride or die. Yeah. I'm new to the scene in New York, so. You're still getting it. Tips for me too, I need tips. So my makeup is done and we're going to do a rehearsal with our heels. Come with me. Please follow me. I'm going to show you the walk, follow the central path, up until the end, everyone back in line up we're gonna start the rehearsal. The last one, but don't stress do your walk when you come back here. I will send you when you're back. Okay. Amazing.

Final Thoughts

Exciting news. I'm closing the show. I'm opening the finale as well, which is very fun. So quick turnaround, but we're gonna make it work. So this is where we come out, keeping my shoulders back, remembering these stay centered and walk with confidence. These are the cameras that we'll get that Runway photo for vogue.com. And that's it. I'm going to get my manicure done. Do an air kiss. I think it's my favorite. Yeah, I want everything. I want everything. I want it straight from the runway to my closet. I don't do torture shoes. These are like the most comfortable shoes I've ever. I don't like torturing women and I don't do torture shoes. This is my final look and I'm so happy with it. It's beautiful and I'm so happy to be closing the show. And even better, I get to show off my pod on the runway. That's a wrap Vogue. Thank you so much for following me and my diary of a model. It's Lila Moss. Hope you enjoyed. Shall I get one of these French flags? That we can like follow. Oh, that would be cute. Just if you wanna quickly do it. No, I'm crying. Like the in Monte Carlo, the tall guide has a French flag. Yeah, the giggle after everything you say. Can you call it together? Pretend I'm posting for my friends which I am, but there's, yeah. Do you think you were quite shy? Yeah. I'm so shy.
