A few years ago I declared myself a supermodel.
I figured if anyone can go around calling themselves an influencer, then why not adopt the same approach with supermodel-ism?
It all started back in Covid, when we were stuck on the farm for the mandatory 2 weeks in isolation…Which was great, mind you, because we weren’t sick and the local bottle-shop took pity and agreed to do gate drops.
There was only one small problem.
I was due to launch a new business selling re-purposed, high fashion horse feed bags and it meant that neither the photographer or the model were allowed on site.
However, I once modeled* for Vogue when I was 3 years old and Anthony had an iPhone, which meant the crisis was averted.
After assessing our strengths as fashion afficionados, we decided to build a portfolio in one particular style…
It’s a genre first immortalised by the incomparable Celeste Barber, that she coined Celeste Challenge Accepted… And to me it’s a form of supermodelism, much like a conversation between two artists.
As we honed our skills around the farm, it became apparent that I was quite talented at making alluring shapes with my body…but sometimes Anthony would just happen to candidly capture me at exactly the right moment 👇
Anyway, if you know one thing about me… Let it be this.
I start and finish a LOT of little businesses….And sadly it didn’t take long for ‘Old Bags’ to end up in the bin.
However, I always try to take a little something from my failures. And my greatest learning was this…
I am fashion.
And like all generous creatives I thought, “I must continue to share this gift”
So over the coming months, whenever I opened my online store – I’d dig deep to produce some truly exquisite art.
And weirdly, as it turns out…
The high fashion folk use a LOT of horses to sell things, which made the job much easier for me.
And even more conveniently – most of these high fashion horses are grey.
Which is a good thing because standing still is my grey horse’s one and only skill.
And over time – if ever sales were looking grim – I’d just rip off my clothes and start posing.
Because as we all know, sex sells…especially with a banging bod like this 👌
Most recently we seamlessly re-created ‘Cowboy Carter’ with our own interpretation called ‘Chafed Thighs’
I think you’ll agree it’s quite a masterpiece.
As you can imagine, it takes a village to create this kind of art… So if you ever see something that you think needs re-creating.
Please – for the love of God – don’t hesitate to send it through 😎🙏
