Bravo reality star Lilly Ghalichi is most well known for the two years she appeared as "the Persian Barbie" on "Shahs of Sunset."
But what many don't know about the 31-year-old Texas native is that she holds degrees in both law and business, and even passed the bar exam.
But instead of practicing law, Lilly started a bikini line.
Today, Lilly's multi-million dollar brand includes swimwear, beauty, fashion, fine jewelry, champagne, and How-To seminars for aspiring entrepreneurs — all of which she promotes to her over 1 million Instagram followers.
Most recently, the designer launched a new line of women's apparel earlier this month for WantMyLook.com during New York Fashion Week.
Lilly shared her behind-the-scenes photos from Fashion Week with Business Insider.
It's the day of the fashion show, so I go straight into fittings and prep.
I'm in New York City for my first-ever Fashion Week as a designer. I'm presenting The Lilly Ghalichi Collection for WantMyLook.com and I'm so excited to share this passion project with the world.
The first step today is to do final fittings with all the models to catch any last minute changes that need to be made. I'm a perfectionist with everything I do, so this is a very important part of the process for me.
The stage is already set, it's the calm before the storm.
Next up, I'm doing a final walk through of the venue to check lighting, music, seating arrangements, and everything else in between.
My favorite fashionistas will be filling this room in just a couple hours!
I do a last check to make sure models are ready for the show.
While the models are getting ready for showtime, I'm making my rounds in the glam room to make sure all the looks are coming together as planned.
It's extremely important to me for all the models have their own unique styles on the runway while maintaining The Lilly Ghalichi Collection vision — which is edgy, feminine, and fabulous.
