Megan Gale talks fashion and social media with Marie Claire


  The cost of switching to Cannes, sat David Jones brand ambassador Megan Gale with Marie Claire to discuss the industry, social media, and of course the legendary Birthday David Jones.

David Jones today celebrates 175 years - what was your most memorable moment of the brand?

I think I will always remember my first show with David Jones and my last - they are always in my head for obvious reasons! Another highlight was the trips I had to make the company - we used to go away any time in amazing places. My favorite was Tahiti, this is a very special part of the world for me. In fact, I ended up staying for a once a month because it rained during our scheduled photo shoot. We had a lot of up days, then I'm all for extending the trip! I loved it.

You've had a long career in the modeling industry - What advice would you girls to give start? How do you manage to keep them happy and healthy?

I think we should be very clear about the reasons and objectives will be a model in the first place. If it's just in the interest of, famous or supposedly glamorous lifestyle, so do not do it.

If you really have a passion for the industry, you understand photographs and understand fashion, then this is the basis for a start.

But it's not all glamor and fun, it's also a lot of hard work. It means away from your family and your friends and your partner. There are many early departures and late arrivals! There are definitely advantages, but there are also disadvantages to the industry.

So I guess my main advice is to make sure that it is because it is something you want to do, and not things personally on the side of the inevitable rejection. It's a big task, but it is certainly not as easy as some girls might think it is. I think they see some high-end models and say, "I want to be her, I want her life," but they do not know what happens behind the scenes.
Their line of swimwear, Isola is stored at David Jones - what you have come for the brand?

We just sell the range on all the different distributors, and we are now at the point where we are in production - we produce the entire spectrum for delivery in July. We are also planning to shoot the campaign, it is actually a very busy time. Then in a month or two, we provide an overview of the 2014 collection look at the planning stage. Although it is winter and the idea of ​​swimwear is a little crazy right now, there is still much to do!
They are very active on social media channels such as Facebook - How Social Media has affected your career?

I think it is definitely a great tool to connect with people who are interested in what you do, and you want a little more know. It is also a good way to increase awareness of your brand, and for this reason alone it is very useful.

There is a downside, however, is what is natural for people to have direct access, which means they have the ability to say negative things or insulting or just generally bad.

It's pretty easy to laugh man and nature, but there were times when I completely unsolicited attacks from people on Twitter got block. Then you must consider where it comes from and how important it actually is.

But social media also gives a voice to have an opinion, and if there is something on you, especially if it is correct or not, one can properly deal with it on.
They have amazing skin - what's your best kept beauty secret?

Thank you! I really think your skin and outer appearance is a reflection of what is happening inside, so I think I look better when I'm well rested and drink enough water. Lack of stress contributes, as well as exercise and a balanced diet. It really is all in the lifestyle of a lot of time.

What would you say to David Jones on his 175th Birthday?

I want to say it was an absolute pleasure and an honor to be able to have in common the last 12 years with an iconic brand and company. I think that marriage is very successful and will continue to be successful in the future. I am sure that we will come to many more birthdays together!
