You are having the great honor of reading the blog of the official "CANDIES" brand Fit Model- ME.
No, this is not me (damnit)
this is obviously Jenny McCarthy in her controversial ad for Candies Brand Shoes,
I'm the FIT MODEL for Candies...
Here I am! Great photo hey? My eyes really stand out in this photo don't they?
I get to be behind the scenes while the garments are in a delicate stage of the design process and need to be revamped before being put into mass production. Not quite as glamourous as having my own billboard in NY, but I'm no Jenny McCarthy either.
What I get to do is travel to L.A. to meet with the other fit models Candies uses and they are going to make a MOLD of my body. Yes, I said a MOLD of my body, so when they need to fit garments that will eventually be sold by Kohls, they can use my body in L.A. without me having to be there all the time.
Personally, I wouldn't mind a visit to LaLa Land every couple of months, but that whole, "married with kids" thing just doesn't fly with the big wigs.
So when I was told that a mold was going to be done, I was a little freaked out at first. The only other time I'd ever heard of body molding was on a "Skinamax" special about adult toys. I think you could purchase a mold of Jenna Jameson's panooch or something...or was it - BUY the mold that grew on Jenna Jameson's panooch? Whatever.
I will ask the "mold technician" in L.A. if I can have a mold for my husband when he's away with the military- just so I can see the look on his face, actually BOTH their faces!
Currently, I visit Kohl's corporate office weekly and they try their upcomming fashions on me to see where changes need to be done, right now we're fitting shorts for summer '06
So the next time you go to Kohl's or anywhere Candies brand is sold and are trying on a pair of size 7 anythings...they were designed specifically to my core body demensions, so don't bitch when they don't fit right! I warned you.
