Model Freebies

[masquerade]

This is for what models get free from designers/photo shoots whether its the actual clothes or other goodies. Do they get a lot? What designers readily give things out and which ones are stingy?

here is a start

Giambattista Valli s/s 07 - cellphones




Marni s/s 07 - t-shirts

more, same source

Marni f/w 06-07 - coin purse/clutches




I've also read in several threads here that Catherine McNeil was given three outfits from Balenciaga f/w 07-08. Which ones did she get? I wonder if there is animosity between models that another model gets the outfit you wore in a show.

^yea i heard she got to pick 3 or 5 things from balenciaga..
i doubt it was stuff from the fw07 show though because those are all samples

I remember that when Marc Jacobs' first perfume was launched every model received it as a gift.

I'd be incredibly irritated if I was paid in clothes instead of cash.

As far as I know, Marc Jacobs gives away Louis Vuitton bags to his models, and has a bin of last seasons clothes for the models to pick out.

yes so would i! i'd rather just have the cash.

a lot of the times the models dont even get to pick what clothes they get as pay. the designer will just send the clothes to the agency.
