Saffron Barker's Christmas-ad dream meets dressing-room reality

What did you think?

The white feathered dress gives Saffron Barker "major Strictly vibes". The water bottle and razor in the changing room offer a rather less polished view of getting ready for a Christmas advert.

Barker's behind-the-scenes Short is a paid promotional video for Debenhams, following her through a two-day commercial shoot. Appearing in a Christmas ad, she says, has always been a dream. The clip makes room for the practicalities: hair and makeup, sheltering under an umbrella on the way to the venue, outfit changes and returning to the white dress for pick-up shots.

Posted in October, it has added roughly 31,000 views in a day, around fifteen times its usual daily pace. A separate upload with the same title is also drawing views much faster than usual.

Between the group scenes and the crew checking photographs, Barker changes into green for gifting clips before rejoining the festive party setup. Her own assessment of the less glamorous preparation is succinct: "Although nothing screams glamorous like attempting to shave your legs in the changing room."
