After successfully planting a fake model for photographers at last year’s London Fashion Week, Zac and Jamie of The Zac and Jay Show wondered if they could do it again. And they got even crazier this time. They hired Elizabeth, a beautiful and charming 78-year-old lady to be their model. They dressed her into a wonderfully ridiculous creation consisting of a green suit, plastic clothes pegs, and bubblewrap. And she totally rocked it in front of photographers who thought that she was one of the actual models
The boys hit a local dollar store to look for clothes and accessories to create Elizabeth’s outfit. I love it that they tried to match it with her personality and the things she loves (the color green, rain, and toast and jam). And expectedly, they bought some hilarious items such as green grape-shaped earrings and a plastic, translucent green purse. Paired with a bright green dress, clothes pegs, rubber gloves, and winter cap, they made Elizabeth “the green goddess.” And for the purpose of Fashion Week, her name was temporarily changed to Elicia Verde. Verde is “green” in Italian so I believe that it rounded up the concept perfectly. Way to go, guys!
Elizabeth Elicia totally rocked her roll of a top model, and all eyes and lenses were pointed at her. She even ended up being featured in Vogue! So I guess that this London Fashion Week was even more successful for Zac and Jamie, and no less hilarious than the previous one. Make sure to watch the entire video, it’s really fun. And if you want to follow the newly-discovered fashion icon Elicia Verde, you can find her on Instagram.
