Before the show I like to do a little bit of meditation.

Just close my eyes.

Playing loud music.

Find a little area to myself and say a prayer.

Drink a cup of tea, jasmine tea to make me feel calm.

Or hide out in a back room somewhere.

Definitely a lot of deep breathing.

Vodka.

No, stay.

I surround myself with people, friends, like this geek.

Lots of green tea for me.

For me it s music.

During the fashion show I ll listen to whatever performers

are singing, so I ve lip synced to Miguel, Harry Styles.

Oh my god he s so sexy. Oh my god.

Last minute workouts.
