Over the top, exaggerated

Not sure if this story even touches the reality of the fashion world, but the whole thing was so clichéd and looked like parts were borrowed from many other fashion movies.
Not sure if it was meant to be a romcom or a slice of life - it didn't fit either genre.

It could have been classified as a light hearted sweet drama - but no!
I'm sorry it is not sweet. The over acting of all the characters makes you grit your teeth and bang your head for watching it.

Except for three , EVERY other character acts atrociously over the top. It could very well be the director or writer's imagination of the behavior of people who work in the fashion industry, but those poor fashion folks should validate this overbearing nonsense.

The only one who did a great job is the supermodel. Not only was she stunning, but she flowed through her role as a supermodel and kept her emotions beautifully underplayed. She was really a superb actor.
The other two actors who stood out were the ex- boyfriend and the editor of the magazine - who had really small roles.

The ML was so lost, the FL was all over the place trying to be the eternal goddess of goodness.
And everyone else - seriously- behaved like they were in some exaggerated street mime show.
