Every July, Medellin plays host to Colombia’s annual fashion week, Colombiamoda.
Billed as one of the biggest fashion events in South America, the 3-day show is an opportunity for local and international designers to share their latest collections, both in a public expo-center setting by day, and on the runways at night.
On the first day, I headed over to Plaza Mayor with Dave to catch a glimpse of Colombia’s notoriously curvaceous supermodels and snap a few photos. Entry to the show cost 80,000 COP, or about $40 USD, and our badges stated that we were “International Buyers.”
Swimsuit models! These girls rocked and were fun to photograph. Every time we walked past them,
they struck a pose for us.
The first model of the day that I shot. I awarded her as the winner for best smile!
I used an Orbis Ring flash to get this photo effect. I love it because it makes the eyes pop and gives a soft shadow around the body. Voted her for best eyes! Go figure on that one huh!
Lingerie model that was about 6'2" (189cm) tall! I voted her the sexiest model of the show!
We did an interview with her for the "Faces Series" ...more to come on that! Voted her as the "Girl Next Door!"
Yes, something for you ladies too. But the ratio of female-to-male models was about 15-1.
Street clothes models! Voted them "Please tell me they are single and looking" award.
