True that, and hearing 'those critiques' at the 'go-sees' as a teenager....
Hate-love for Paris and Milan fashion week and esp. NYC fashion week for the chaos, but fun being in Paris and Milan. Miami swimwear shows....was alright, but hated the [few] touchy feely handsy fashion people trying to seduce or touch the goods. At the Miami swimwear shows wearing tiny little speedos and thongs things. I remember, as an 18yo HS swimmer at the time, looking at one 'speedo', and saying, "you're telling this is a speedo and not a tiny piece of cloth?" LOL.
Dude, don't even get me started about swimwear. I'm... well... not like most. And every dirty ass old man (gay) photographer was handsy af. it's just apart of the industry. I got used to it, but yeah... they're all dirty fucks. And they expect you to put up with it... or get black-balled. End of story.
