4 hours before showtime

Sneaking into the villa, 4 hours before the show:
The collection is in place, out of its travel cases and hunging on the backstage rails.

The FTBC t-shirt is there too. It will co-star with Andria's summer shorts later on, reminding the guests that Fashion TARGETS Breast Cancer. (In this show, Andria is openly supporting the cause)

Cinematic hats Andria brought home from Saint Tropez. Summer styling at large...

Four hours before showtime. Model Angela Evripidi is enjoying the 20 meter long swimming pool. In a few hours she'll be doing the catwalk around it. Andria Papadopoulou is catching some sun too. What's in the mind of a designer a sneeze before the show? Styling? Make-up? Fittings?

None of the above. She was worried about her models' nutrition and cooked a delicious healthy and energy-boosting meal for them, herself! Not sure I can recall anyone who's done this before. Can you?

Tender meat in red sauce, boiled veggies salad and pink rice were on the menu. I could not resist a taste. The woman can cook, and may I say she's as creative in the kitchen as she is in her atelier;)

Who say's models starve before the shows? Clockwise from left: Angela Evripidi, Sofia Kyriakidi, Natassa Badeca and Olga Kyprioti stocking up on energy and vitamins, eating proper mediterranean lunch and proving that perfect silhouettes need fuel too...
