Diary of a Model, based on a real story, candidly reveals young woman’s struggle for freedom from fashion world’s boundaries. Alyssa is searching for sanity in her relationship with her drug-addicted musician boyfriend, her Sex and the City-like group of friends, her constant struggle to lose weight. As she goes from one photo to the other, she discovers that there is more to life than the modeling scene’s glitter. I’ve never slept with a photographer. I think most photographers enter the fashion business to get laid. A camera enhances guys looks the same way a soldier’s uniform does, adding a sense of importance and masculinity.” Diary of a Model shows the human side of women, whose photos you admire in magazines and on billboards. ”Last night I went to the post fashion week party. The place was packed with the hottest people of the universe. Most of them were high on drugs, discussing the fashion campaigns that they were going to shoot on Bermuda islands. I felt like the most unattractive, boring and lonely model.” This book is a must read for anyone interested in the inside workings of the modeling business and the fashion industry.
