A lot of planning goes into something that lasts fifteen minutes tops—and that’s with slow-moving models. Here, for example, is the seating chart for the Dior show; it’s been studied and scrutinized for weeks with migraine-provoking intensity. But those brief and dazzling runway minutes are really just the final product of a long and passionate process.
