Fashion Planet - Season 1 (2014)

Gay and female staff savors one of their fashion jobs' greatest perks: watching an underwear models casting. However willingly magnificent men showoff superbly-sculpted six-packs, the designer rejects all for lacking 'natural ease'. Ellis panics when her boyfriend Michel bursts in, but the casting team eagerly strips him down to his boxers and offers him a contract, which he would turn down for her but accepts when she explains that's a great opportunity for her pristine career.

Mike had a wonderful gay night in bed with gorgeous delivery boy Igor, who gives him a lift to the magazine, yet tells him there it can only be a one night stand. However, after the designer rejected all professional models and just Rick isn't enough for an underwear shoot, Igor is picked, who eagerly accepts being man-handled and recruited. London can barely keep his hands of that near-naked lovely boy meat. Rebecca, stressed by family drama, fails again to seduce lowly Hector.

The magazine prepares a gala for its name change from fashion World to fashion Planet. 'Guest of honor' is former editor Jane Gargiulo, not grateful but vindictive, now in charge of a modeling agency. Editor Rebecca is even more troubled by her flawed flirting, the Belgian investors family and, worst, family troubles: her parents' medical misery and her useless kid sister Nathalie-Jane wriggling in as utterly incompetent, meddling 'deputy editor', whom real deputy Mike however handles ruthlessly.

It's Amsertdam fashion week, but Rebecca keeps turning down every suggestion for the next issue. It looks like Diego's photo-shoot was a complete waste, until Ellis's idea for funky page editing works out. However that turns her established colleagues into virtual hatred, and instead of crediting her, Rebecca openly looks down upon the intern 'which you could also sit upon' in a meeting, so she has a breakdown and decides to resign and return home to her simpleton Brabant country family.

Mike can't hide his infatuation for courier Igor, but refuses to admit so, even when caught by proud gay assistant London copying the hottie's pictures. Rebecca rejects the photographer's entire shoot concept and uses the modern editing executed by Oscar after Ellis's ideas, yet refuses to credit the intern and even calls her furniture. So the disheartened country girl resigns and returns home to her patronizing yokel family in rural Northern Brabant. Resuming dull life there isn't easy, and her father warns against giving up on dreams, either career or local suitor ...

When Igor calls on Mike unexpectedly, he finds the elder serial lover in bed with another gay one-night-stand and simply leaves. Mike manages, unlike her family, to convince Ellis not to give up her dream and return to fashion, but is still cruelly ignored as far too devoted boyfriend, dumped without reason. Rebecca only takes her back by exhaustion due to her lush mother and airhead sister, who is allowed supervising a hairstyle photo-shoot.

Things get more hectic then ever at the fashion magazine HQ as the grand gala approaches when it officially changes its name, celebrating the 'first edition' with a celebrity awards event. Rebecca however is more interested in her father's unexpected sudden recovery of speech and curtailing her mother's wine abuse, while Ellis is stunned to find her father once was their family driver. So Nathalie Jane is supposed to step in, a sure recipe for additional flaws.
