Strike a Pose: Playboy Intern Becomes Model on TV for a Morning.

As some of you may have caught on...working for Playboy leads you towards some of the most random side-jobs and side-tasks ever. Luckily, this one was sa-weet!


How it happened: Joseph DeAcetis is the head honcho (Fashion Director) when it comes to fashion at Playboy Enterprises, Inc. In our August Issue, Joseph composed a piece about modern day Cowboy Fashion as a tribute to the top American Bull-riders (Cannot imagine how to spell their names for the life of me). Jessica from the Public Relations Department was asked to gather some models to showcase Mr. DeAcetis' picks for a modern cowboy wardrobe and one of the models chosen was me!

Where was it?: It was in New York City at the studio for the CW11, which is one of the more popular channels on basic TV here in New York. The segment was filmed live for the CW11 Morning News Show and was broadcasted to milli0ns of people throughout New York.
"Insert West Side Story Line here, haha"

What was it like?: Not what you would think, I'll tell you that much. Call time was 6:30a.m. So, you can imagine how tired I was. After hanging out in the greenroom and changing into the outfits we would be showcasing, they gave us a brief walk-through of what we would be doing. One thing stuck in my head from the overview..."Look Straight". I started to get nervous when I realized the pants were slowly sliding down and did not want to mess up the segment. When it was my turn to go down the runway, a couple of the camera guys are waving at me to look at their camera, but I try to look straight and get confused.

What did I wear?: Jacket and shirt by Paul Stuart. Jeans by AG. Boots by Donald Pliner
