- Ta da! Happy Valentine's Day from me, from Tory,
and enjoy the show
Hello, my name is Lineisy Montero. Hi Vogue.
And today you're going to follow me to the Tory Burch show
So, come, enjoy
This is my first fashion week in New York after pandemic
Really, it feels really amazing to be back
And something that I always love about fashion,
Every show you are a different character
This morning you can be like, sexy lady,
But after you are elegant, a princess, whatever you want.
It's like, different.
Something that fashion shapes about me is like,
Before fashion I didn't seem like something special.
But it's like something that I think that
Defines me everywhere that I go. That is all.
Step one.
Step two.
So, I'm from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
My last name is Lineisy Montero Feliz, from
My second last name means "happy" in English.
So I always try to do my second last name proud.
So that's why I'm always happy.
The first time that I fly off to Dominican Republic
Was the first time that I do everything alone, like
Everything was like a whole new world for me
Because in that moment I realized, like, oh yeah,
You are no more a kid, you are an adult now.
The first year was difficult.
I remember that I called and crying my mom like,
Oh I know I can do it but I feel, like, really alone here
Because it's a different language, different people,
Different place, and I remember my mom and my grandma,
They would call me and would say, like, you are here.
You know that there is a reason.
Try everything you, just, you have to try.
And even now, one of the first things that I do
In the morning after wake up is helping my mom
And with my grandma.
So right now, we're going to bring something to you
Before the show.
So let's go.
The camera's like, aaaah
One of my hobbies is maxi, so here in New York
Is the polaroid. I love it to take pictures of the people
When they are not looking at me.
Those moments are the best because they are not
really posing, they are just being theirselves.
- Hi guys!
- Hello!
- Hello, welcome in!
- Hello, can I have an avocado toast?
- Sure! Do you want an egg on that?
- Yes
So, there is one of my favorite places to go to eat
And one of my favorite dishes is the avocado toast.
Good!
It's sometimes it's too easy to be like,
Oh, you are this or you are that but you don't know
What the person is happening behind and because
In the moment, like, you say something like,
Being like, oh, I need help or I need something.
The first thing that people say is like, oh my god
You have an amazing life, why you need more than that?
They think, like, because you have the candlelight,
You don't have the right to feel bad.
That's something that, like, one day and we all
Have to start to change.
Oh yeah.
Pick your one
Right now we go to the part, so let's go.
I'm a little bit nervous.
It's always like that. I think it's feeling emotion
Before the show. But still, I've still been nervous
Until the last moment where I go to the calm, like,
Oh yeah, I'm ready for that.
Hi
Right now we're going to go to see the cobbler.
When all the models, we go down, the first thing that
We're going to see is, like, the New Yorker sign, like,
And it's going to be amazing.
So really confident, really straight, looking at the mural,
This is your moment so just enjoy it.
And here is when you get the picture that goes for
All the runways. So here you turn and go.
I always get the feeling that I get for the clothes.
It's like, okay, what makes me feel the clothes.
They make me feel confident, they make me feel sexy,
Or what. And that feeling that I have is what in the caller.
So right now we are running out of time for
They're going to do hair and makeup at the same time.
How are you?
- I'm good.
- Nice to see you again.
Hi Sherry, how are you?
This is my first Sherry, say hi Sherry.
So, I'm a really big Harry Potter fan.
My Ron and my apartment, is like, full of funklepuffs.
My two favorite characters from Harry Potter are
Luna Lovegood and Remus Lupin.
I feel like it's, I have a lot in common between me
And those two.
This is my collection.
- [Gasps]
- So this is like the runway models for the show.
I'm here. I'm here again.
And my little cure is the number 28.
- How are you?
- I'm good, how have you been?
I've been here like, the diary of a model for Vogue.
- Wow, that's exciting!
- I know, it's really nice!
What is the advice that you're going to give to, maybe,
To yourself or to someone like want to go into modeling?
- I would say to just stand your ground and to
Believe in yourself no matter what anyone thinks of you
In this industry.
Always be sure to have fun.
- Yeah.
And don't be so hard to yourself sometimes.
- Yeah, have fun!
- Thank you!
So right now we're going to put the shoes because we
Are going to do the rehearsal.
I work with Lady Gaga in the Mardi Gras show.
I think it was 2017.
The shoes was really high, like, platforms but really high.
And you know that she always wore, like, those crazy shoes
In the video, like, everything's so crazy.
The group that we was in front of her, we were like,
Oh my god, we are really scary because we never walk
In so high shoes, so she was, like, we asking like,
How do you do it?
And she was like, oh you only have to put your toes in
The front like that and try to walk in the front part
Like that and don't think like you're going to fall
Because that is the trick.
We off the book? Sorry.
When are we going to do the rehearsal, so each model
Finds their number and their name, like here.
28 Lineisy
So we do the line and we do the house before the show.
- What's up?
- What is your name?
- My name is Selena Forrest. I am backstage here at
Tory Burch with Lineisy.
- Hi, hello.
- She's a star, you guys are lucky.
Don't tell them too much now.
- Yeah, I'm going to keep everything a secret.
So now I met my new friend. Her name is Majesty.
What are you thinking is the fun part about to be a model?
- Trying on all of the most beautiful clothes.
- I know, you know, I know I'm not the only one that
Thinks that.
- You see it?
- I sell it, it's good.
- Start dressing. First looks. Make your way, dresses.
- So, right now we're going to go to the first look.
You're going to love my outfit.
It's really amazing. So, see you in one moment.
First look.
Right now the show is about to start so I'll see you
After the show.
So we are done.
