Today we’re delving into the effects of modelling with professional model Ethan Ashton and designer Alice Edgeley.
Ethan was scouted by an agent in a Frankston car yard four years ago. He had no modelling experience and was working at KFC at the time. But since then, he’s modelled for high fashion labels in London and Milan Fashion weeks.
Alice Edgeley has worked in the fashion industry for 30 years. Since 2010 her label ‘Edgeley’ has dressed people all over the world, including DJs, performance artists, drag queens, musicians and pop stars. Alice began her career working with Christopher Kane in London and frequently models for her own brand.
For this episode, we discussed how modelling shapes self-perception, and how to navigate an at-times dehumanising industry.
