How Top Model Meghan Roche Gets Runway Ready | Diary of a Model | Vogue

[Music] my spirit that one looks like my cat oh my god this looks like me when I get too much cereal loaded and chubs hi Vogue my name is Megan Roach today you're coming along with me to the brand and Maxwell show but first we gotta eat and run a few errands let's go I'm from Pennsylvania or and raised this is my family it's little me I was called the devil growing up because they always had a stank face during my finals week in high school I got an email saying you have to come to New York we had like a really prestigious brand and photographer that wants to work with you they didn't tell me exactly yet who it was but once I got to New York they said okay you're me Steven Mizell possibly gonna shoot the new campaign for G Munchie with Claire wait Keller it's her first debut with we dope at every one it's like the dream team and in my head I like I didn't really realize how important that was so right now it's New York Fashion Week it's probably the most stressful week of the whole fashion one everyone thinks that you have a schedule but you don't you kind of find out a rough schedule the night before then when you wake up it's like you have to go here and then you go there just a mixture of running from casting fitting show hopefully food in this pack it's kind of crazy my first season I was fortunate to be so hot the new face a new face is a fresh model usually super young there's always really one new face every season who does every show and I became that girl that season it's kind of like you can be a one-hit wonder and you could have a great season and then nothing comes out of it you have a great season and then your career kind of blasts off after that it's just kind of up to luck people in this industry want whatever the look is during that moment it's that is out of my hands like it's either they want me during this time or not and being into person of course nobody wants to work with a crap person okay enough team let's get going what do you think people ask me I make up routine and really the only thing I do is brush my brows I'll spend like ten minutes just moving hairs they really have a mind of their own em for Megan or W for winner so final look why wear heels when it's fashion month and you don't have to shades protect those eyes right now where my favorite cafe was cafe how's your talk - peanut butter Bowl really good okay that reaction is good [Music] that is you and eating off a able don't ever mix it I think the people that mix they're offset evils are serious like legit serial killers when I was younger growing up I was always told to model oh I got scouted when I was about 15 by who's my hairstylist now any kind of like pulling me aside and said you had to model you have to model and he called who became my mother agent at the time at this point I had a quit soccer so I said you know what I'm gonna meet this lady let's see what happens and she told me that I was very much killer and I had to lose all the muscle in my head at this point I still didn't think about modeling I just thought of it as a task if people don't think I could do something I want to do it and do it better than they'd ever expect I feel like any girl considering modeling has to be ready to to leave home and to kind of take on a responsibility of taking care of yourself mentally physically financially - it's really tough for me I I moved to New York when I was 16 and a half and I was fortunate enough to have a really great support system back home and friends who believed in me and we never felt alone a lot of people think that I'm either Russian or Eastern European I'm here to clarify that I am American when the main goals is a beauty contract of course for most models the biggest hit really in your career is a beauty contract usually when a girl gets a beauty contract that's when they become the face of that brand and there's just there's only so many brands to be on the face for in there there'll be the face for a few years so it's very minimal how many people get a beauty contract I want to say year ago I started journaling because that's when I started to get a little in my head with stress and dealing with things and I just couldn't let it out it's there for whenever I need it that's why I always bring it so I have to I have my blue one is for just my daily routine schedule things I want to get done land at 12:00 p.m. arrive home water food cleanup unpack work out question mark shower question those getting I definitely showered and then I have my personal journal this baby is like sacred to me and I end up like drawing in it here we're at the Museum of Natural History so this will be a really cool that you come inside to see it Kinney Kouga I so can't are you checking in for Megan Roach should be under I thank you so much I was thinking to see it already looks like a lots gone when you're looking to pick out the right burger you got to look at the fluff factor of the button because if it's squished it's not as Airy it's not the same this fluff factors really good but the meat it's not hard enough this one stunning I always bring my own lash curler because my lashes are really difficult and only certain ones work they're as annoying as my eyebrows curl these difficult voice funky smack tongue are we gonna throw down take this outside stop now I see and also in the end the inside is bad boys they're so stubborn some hairs stay down all right let's still see one that's now [Music] she's coming back you're gonna throw herself I believe you better effing Carlos get those lashes up right now here final make it's gorgeous okay so I found dressing and you're allowed to come on in so for every Fashion Show there's always a big board of every single life so it's like an organized way to see the line up here the veil what my girl is opening the show opening and closing of course are the two most important positions in a show opening it like it sets the mood you the first book is first it's exciting to get an adrenalin rush me like what is the collection that we like what's the inspiration and then the last look the closing look which is usually the most important is typically a gown or something more extravagant this is the closing look for Brandon and this number 10 is me this is my look and I'm really excited because this is the exact look I wanted for the show this is the most crucial hour this is where everyone starts to get a little antsy Meghan is wearing two super tall boots a white coat dress yes it's like chocolate belt beanie I try to look at the women around me the models the women and who work in my office you know what I mean like ask questions and I'm not a woman so you need to ask like what what do you like is too much what would you want I asked to come here my very first collection and they said no and four years later they have said yes the finale look is going to be taken right off the runway and put on display in the museum for like how many years a lot of years we're in year these teams work so so hard and you want to be surrounded by people who lift you up and make you feel seen and in this moment when everyone's exhausted and has been working forever and this is the finish line they need hype girls you know and we're lucky to have them oh that's so sweet you're the best it is an honor to work with you every time Vogue I have to go now and I have to get my hair done for Brandon kills me I feel you feel second-best it's lunchtime look how many people are out here right now so after a few seasons there's some things that I've learned with my runway walk so this is the moment where we're about to go out I take a moment to breathe close my eyes and then I open them and I'm focused first tip confidence the entire crowd can feel your energy it shows in your walk now this is the most important part cameramen are right there second tip breathe you look like a mannequin if you don't breathe third tip is the body language kind of make sure you pop a little hip pop a little shoulder make sure your arms are behind your back and please make sure you move your body [Music] my final look love it pray for me these shoes are high [Music] all right folks that's a wrap thank you for coming along with me on my day it was so much fun and I enjoyed Brandon is like he gets so nervous we show it because he's so humble and just so passionate so passionate and I knew how to take collections and every time he just out story [Music]
