Living on the ramp
Amidst the clacker of heels, background music, and applause, how does one listen to the faintest sound-the inner voice? It gets all the more difficult when one is lost under layers of make-up and a cloud of glamour. Still it's the only sound that gets carried back with the models from the ramp to the green room.
