As some of you heard, Generation T taped a short segment with MTV last week. It’s going to be super short (30 to 60 seconds!), for a show called 10 on Top with host Lenay Dunn. It won’t air till after the 4th of July, but I thought I’d give you guys a sneak peek behind the scenes of our shoot in Central Park! The bikini that Lenay is wearing is made from a custom Fanta logo T-shirt. I call it the “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Fanta Polka Dot Bikini.”
Here’s the before and after: From XL T-shirt to X-tra Teeny Bikini (project #49 in Generation T: 108 Ways to Transform a T-shirt). I had a lot of fabric left over!
For taping, we sat, chatted, and refashioned a bikini on the blanket — like a bikini picnic! And then Lenay bravely modeled the little number.
Lenay talked to the camera while the director was rolling and the still photographer was clicking away.
We’ll keep you posted when we have an air date for the episode!
