It's now time for Niall to blog about doing new and interesting things, here's a photo a few years back thinking about his career in fashion striking a pose...........
Hello, my name is Niall and my good mate Angela has for asked me to contribute to her blog, so here goes…
So last week was London Fashion Week, my job involves managing one of the venues used for Erdem’s Autum/Winter 2011 show, it was certainly an eye opener. I was looking forward to seeing models behaving like crazy, drug hungry whores but alas, there was none of that mischief. The show was super slick and professional, as were the models…BORING! I even caught some of the super skinny minnies stuffing their faces with…SHOCK/HORROR food!!! Anyway, I got to meet a plethora of cool (and not so cool) celebs including the Prime Minister’s wife Samantha Cameron & Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of American Vogue.
Wintour has become an institution throughout the fashion world, widely praised for her eye for fashion trends and her support for younger designers. Her reportedly aloof and demanding personality has earned her the nickname "Nuclear Wintour". I thought she was fabulous. Here’s a backstage snippet :-

By the week’s end I was ready to enjoy a fun night out with my friends but I felt shattered with the beginnings of a cold brewing…destination…the sofa!
So come Sunday I’m slowly climbing the walls and feeling better and so head out to meet friends. I Discovered a new pub called The Nelson’s Head, a gay place in ‘gay free’ Hackney. Nice crowd with DJ Scrangelina, AKA Angela putting on some top tunes on the free juke box, courtesy of Blondie & Madonna!
One bottle of brandy lead to another bottle of wine and Sunday night melts away into Monday morning, I don’t do this often so don’t feel too guilty about it on this occasion.

Tuesday it’s back to work and another new installation and launch to organise, this time courtesy of American Avant-Garde artist Anthony McCall, who specialises in cinema & projected film. McCall was a key figure in the avant-garde London
That's all for now folkes have a good week love Niall x
