Skin Two Rubber Ball

In 1992, Olley instigated the now-famous fetish club night the Skin Two Rubber Ball, which in the 1990s went on to become the largest and most high-profile fetish party in the world. The original Ball was held in aid of the MS Society and Cruisaid (the 1995 Ball alone raised £16,000 for the latter). Guests on the opening night included John Paul Gaultier,

In that time it became an international event with people coming from all over the world to attend and to participate in the increasingly elaborate fashion shows and performances. Of the inception of the Rubber Ball, Olley said: :''"We decided that we wanted to do a 'public' fetish party because in the early 90s there was a lot of tabloid/police interest in fetish clubs and people were getting closed down by raids in the summer of 92, so we decided that instead of hiding and going quietly, the thing to do would be to hold a more open event, invite the press, let everyone know that the press were there, get them to show up in the mood for a fun party rather than anything more full-on and have a public celebration of dressing-up and general sauciness.'' :''It grew from an event for 2,000 people in 1992 to a bursting to capacity 4,500 people crammed into Hammersmith Palais by 1994."''


Club Nights

Olley also ran a club night called Disco Scum – an electro-punk night that was held in a gentlemen's club in Piccadilly – which she ran in 1993 with Mark Carter (who also ran punk club Penetration and managed the band Superblond). And, in 1995, a club night called Street life that Olley ran with her band Salon Kitty and which was held at the

The tumultuous history of Salon Kitty was described in their own words as: ''"9 lives, 8 years, 7 members, 6 near death experiences, 5 Countries (if you include Wales), 4 Managers, 3 record deals, 2 arrests, One hell of a ride."''


Alexander McQueen

Whilst at Fable, Olley was chosen by the British designer
Alexander McQueen Lee Alexander McQueen CBE (17 March 1969 – 11 February 2010) was a British fashion designer and couturier. He founded his own Alexander McQueen label in 1992, and was chief designer at Givenchy from 1996 to 2001. His achievements in fashion ...

. Olley also modelled for Nick Knight's ''Sister Honey'' series created for '' Dazed & Confused'' with British designer Peter Saville. It was the McQueen show that brought Olley to Nick Knight's attention, as he later said of it on his SHOWstudio.com blog:
''"The girl in the box was Michelle Olley. She modelled for me in a story I did called Sister Honey... She was a writer and I remember she wrote a great piece on being the Butterfly Girl in the middle of that (McQueen) Glass Box show. I was sat on the front row, in between Alexandra Schulman and

Alexander McQueen later described his thoughts on forcing his audience to stare at their own reflection for over an hour: :''"Ha! I was really pleased about that. I was looking at it on the monitor, watching everyone trying not to look at themselves. It was a great thing to do in the fashion industry—turn it back on them! God, I’ve had some freaky shows."'' In spring 2011, Olley was asked by the

The diary relates details of the show and encounters with McQueen, ending with the account of when Olley returned home after the VOSS show to find "...a MASSIVE bouquet of flowers has arrived, with a note saying, ''"Thank you for everything – you were beautiful! – Lee xxx"'' " Olley was interviewed for the documentary on the life and work of McQueen, directed by Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui, released in 2018.
