The Milan fashion week has just ended. It was the second edition for me, and I began to like it, even though it was not so easy. Until I got myself involved in that event, I had thought that everything was simply fascinating, the life has been just as pink as possible, with 12 cm high heels, just like the ones of superstars that I used to see when watching TV. But only when you really start working in this field, you begin to feel and understand the pressure that you never see on TV. You begin to feel, to feel the stress and the pain in your legs, after one or two days of running from one presentation to another, whilst in the evening you need to attend to some other events, that are going to finish way after midnight. Even so, I simply adore this world, it just gives me an enormous satisfaction. Running from one place to the other, I got used right from the period when I was a student in journalism, when I understood that being a journalist is a job that it has to be done with the head but also with your legs. The field work, continuously looking for new subjects, at first, I felt it was terrible, but shortly I began to see the full part of the glass and discover that that was the exact thing I needed, in order to keep the adrenaline popping up into my veins. Sometimes I just miss the first two years of college. I consider them the best ones, even though they were the most difficult ones. Now I remember them, running on the streets of Milan, from one event to another, from various shootings to other fashion presentations.
During the Milan fashion week, there are more than 100 events, all in different corners of the city. It’s practically impossible to attend to all of them. Many of them are scheduled at the same hour, in this case you only need to choose between them, which one is more important for you, what you really want to see. Others are scheduled within an interval of no more than 10-20 min between the end of one and the beginning of the other, and of course the locations are in different parts of the city. So it’s a real challenge to try to reach out to them. In order to resist to this period, you need very well tricks and precise schemes.
