1
Are you wearing Zaylar?
2
See you.
3
Go on, Jay.
4
Get out the wrong.
5
Get me here, please, mate.
6
This is our mate Max.
7
He isn't famous.
8
He isn't a model.
9
So what are loads of people taking photos of him?
10
Well, this is the story of how we got our unfashionable mate to the top of London Fashion Week wearing the worst outfit we could find.
11
The world of fashion is a strange, strange world.
12
A world most of us normal folk will never understand.
13
A world where we're in a paddling pool, a human backpack and this utter trollop is regarded cool.
14
I mean, that literally is just a tent.
15
Essentially, anything goes.
16
Well, we wanted to put this theory to test and get our seemingly normal, run-of-the-mill Englishman to the top of London Fashion Week.
17
The only trouble was we had one day to do it.
18
The Secondary Show!
19
The plan was simple, we'd buy the worst outfit possible, turn up to fashion week and try and cause a scene, but first it was time to find a model.
20
We needed someone who exudes confidence but is understated, someone who's comfortable on camera but not in the fashion world.
21
We needed a confident, unfashionable blank canvas of a man.
22
that our mate Max Foch from the YouTube channel Street Smart was the perfect candidate.
23
I mean look at me, do I shout style?
24
Yes you do!
25
Thank you, you're such a liar.
26
So the brainstorm started.
27
We knew for a male to make it in Women's Fashion Week that it had to be a statement.
28
Okay right, so we're taking the piss at our fashion week.
29
Can we get like a temporary shelf and fit it to your chest?
30
You can put on their emotional baggage.
31
Yes.
32
No, just carry a bag.
33
This is my emotion.
34
So with time ticking we headed to a store well regarded as the bottom of the barrel for quality clothes.
35
If we could get Max to the top of Fashion Week in Primark, we could do about anything.
36
So the search for the show-stopping outfit began.
37
A Balenciaga Kanye West thing which was like two shirts.
38
You could wear this literally like this.
39
No, these are better.
40
And we're not going to the gym.
41
Okay.
42
Jamie, how are we feeling?
43
Full of anxiety.
44
I think they're in them big long flare things I think.
45
Like you know, Jack and Zay.
46
Yeah, Deppo, Deppo, yeah.
47
100%.
48
I like that a lot.
49
What's inside the bag?
50
Oh.
51
Hot air.
52
Oh, I like that.
53
I do actually like that as a collar.
54
Oh, it's like royalty but plastic.
55
Yeah, plastic...
56
Royalty.
57
It really does.
58
I'm walking for the catwalks later.
59
Do you think what it looks like?
60
Well, in the catwalks I've seen you'd be a hit.
61
You know my guys, we've been to a lot of catwalks.
62
That's very black and more gilet.
63
This is the time for the sunglasses montage.
64
Just, yeah, yeah.
65
Strike a pose.
66
I'll definitely look like I need to see the manager.
67
It looks like I like to cycle around Richmond Park on a Sunday.
68
That's the power.
69
Wow.
70
Do you like the clothes in there?
71
Yeah.
72
You don't seem too sure.
73
Do you think Max will look good?
74
With the shop assistant not even thinking Max would look good, our job here was done.
75
So we grabbed a few final bits and headed home.
76
Hardware store safety glasses, free.
77
Duct tape and fragile tape £5 each Girls cords £5 reduced Fake Balenciagas £16 Horrible bag £6
78
Zack and Jay keyrings, 4 quid.
79
Fake lashes, 2 quid.
80
Tacky rings, 2 quid.
81
And our blank canvas of a man, priceless.
82
So with two outfits and less than 50 quid spent, it was time to bring our creation to life.
83
I'm going to go on public transport looking like this.
84
God, it looks so rude.
85
It doesn't look good.
86
This is dumb.
87
Get the labels on.
88
Yeah, yeah, they're going back.
89
It is.
90
That looks like a nappy.
91
No one's going to be taking photos of that.
92
He don't look that cool man.
93
I'm not being funny guys but no one's taking a photo of him are they?
94
Come on.
95
With our confidence in the Candy Floss Man outfit very low, we decided to switch to a more understated look.
96
We whipped out the cycle shorts, a bit of fragile tape, we were playing on emotions here.
97
More fragile tape, more emotions was the logic.
98
That's what I was thinking.
99
Where's it gonna stop?
100
It looks like a prosthetic limb It looks like a prosthetic limb
101
Yeah, boy So with a bit of cut, sticking and colouring later We had something which looked full of meaning But in reality meant nothing Perfect They look great They don't, do they?
102
I just get it all the way through I look like Syndrome from The Incredibles Just Just keep rubbing it.
103

104

105

106

107
Life Rage Gag Roar.
108
What the fuck does that mean?
109
What the fuck does that mean?
110
I just feel like this would make too much of a statement.
111
Since when did you have an opinion?
112
You are the world's most famous model.
113
Look at this outfit, this outfit.
114
Even with the zipper undone you look great.
115

116

124
Yeah, go on Max.
125
Yeah.
126
Oh my God, that is mean.
127
When you were taking photos of Max and everyone was looking as if he was a celeb.
128
But, what have I done in my life that's led me to this moment?
129
Let's do a little run through, okay?
130
This is fucking mean, Max.
131
Can you see Max?
132
Max, Max, Max, Max, Max.
133
Midway through our test run, a wild photographer appeared.
134
The fashion gods had answered our prayer and our test run had worked.
135
Two minutes of being at fashion week and Max was already turning heads.
136
How do you feel about that test run, Maximus?
137
All right, Max, well done, then.
138
Why don't you take a picture, Stephen?
139
Max was in the zone, in character.
140
He was no longer Max Foshman Street Smart.
141
He was 16 year old modeling prodigy Maximus Bucharest from Bucharest
142
It must have went to his head because he stormed ahead against the plan where the photographers hang with no warning without his bag without Taking off his trousers or coat with an out mismatched outfit.
143
This was getting messy, but we only had one shot of this It was game on I'll take you back.
144
Take you back, mate.
145
Max.
146
I'll take you back.
147
Guys, Jake, get out the road.
148
Max, what's the message behind the bag?
149
Max, what does the bag mean?
150
What's in the bag?
151
Who are you wearing today guys?
152
As if this whole charade isn't enough, the guy still has Primark tags sticking out of his trousers.
153
But it wasn't long till images started surfacing online.
154
What's his surname?
155
Maximilian Bucharest.
156

164

166
Today was a big day and we needed to do better.
167
Today Max needed to make it into a show to solidify his place as the most popular male at Female Fashion Week.
168
So we brought him a few new things.

176

177

182

183
Hello.

189

190

191

201
Professional stylist and all-round top bloke Scott Croft have managed to get the hottest new model in town access to a show.

229
Heads were turned, necks were snapped.

242

243
So as the final few pictures were taken, they made their way towards the exclusive invite only show.
244
All Jamie and I could do was stand and watch on like the proud fathers we were.

250
All of them wanted a slice.
251
Maximus was in town and boy, he looked gorgeous in his plastic bag packaging collar thing.
252
So with all this attention, it wasn't long before he started rubbing shoulders with some real celebrities.
253
He had now ditched his stupid YouTuber mate, Zach and Jay, and was climbing the social ladder making friends with none other than Jessica Woodley from Made in Chelsea, the lucky bugger.
254

Perché praticare parlando con questo video?

Praticare il parlato con video come questo offre un'opportunità unica di immergersi in un contesto reale di conversazione. Nel video "We Faked A Model To The Top Of Fashion Week", gli autori si avventurano nel mondo bizzarro della moda, presentando situazioni divertenti e linguaggio colloquiale che riflettono le interazioni tra amici. Questo tipo di pratica di conversazione in inglese non solo migliora la comprensione, ma offre anche spunti su come esprimere opinioni e fare battute, un elemento cruciale per comunicare in modo efficace. Guardando e ripetendo i dialoghi, puoi affinare le tue capacità di ascolto mentre sviluppi la tua fiducia nel parlato.

Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto

Il video offre vari esempi di strutture grammaticali e espressioni utili. Qui ne analizziamo alcune:

  • “What are loads of people taking photos of him?” - Una domanda retorica che invita a riflettere su situazioni inaspettate. Utilizzare What are è comune in conversazioni informali per esprimere sorpresa.
  • “So the plan was simple” - Una struttura chiara per presentare un’idea. L’uso del passato semplice qui stabilisce la sequenza temporale, una chiave per comunicare eventi.
  • “Can we get like a temporary shelf and fit it to your chest?” - L’utilizzo di like come parola di riempimento è tipico nel linguaggio colloquiale, una buona pratica per sembrare più naturale.

Queste frasi non solo ti aiuteranno a costruire frasi simili ma ti forniranno anche il giusto contesto per utilizzare espressioni colloquiali.

Trappole di pronuncia comuni

Nel video, ci sono alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero risultare difficili da pronunciare. Ecco alcuni punti su cui focalizzarti:

  • “Fashion Week” - Presta attenzione alla pronuncia della sh in fashion, che può essere confusa per chi apprende l’inglese.
  • “Confidence” - La difficoltà risiede nel suono della en che segue una consonante, cercando di enfatizzare la con iniziale.
  • “Statement” - Assicurati di pronunciare correttamente la t finale, spesso trascurata dagli studenti di inglese.

Praticare questi suoni e parole ti aiuterà a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a sentirti più sicuro quando partecipi a conversazioni reali. Utilizzando risorse come imparare l'inglese con youtube, puoi ascoltare e ripetere per affinare la tua pronuncia.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
