When one watches The Bachelor, one might be alluded into thinking the famous on-set mansion is as picture-perfect in real life as it comes off on-screen.

And for the most part, your allusion would be correct – one Bachie alum has indeed confirmed the validity of its sweeping lawns, fancy lounge rooms… oh, and a secret room filled with something us normal folk could only dream of having.

We are talking an entire room, filled to the brim, jam-packed, positively oozing with gorgeous dresses.

Yep, those fancy creations the girls don during each cocktail party don’t just appear out of thin air.

According to Clare Lange, 26, who spoke to Now To Love following her departure from the show in August, there’s an entire freaking room dedicated to dresses.

So when can we get one in our own digs??

Clare says there’s an entire room filled with glorious cocktail outfits.

“I was completely obsessed,” Clare told us.

“I absolutely loved everything I wore on the show, and I got to try on anything because they have this this room of dresses. Tons and tons of them,” she explained.

“It’s an absolute fairytale.”

We won’t argue with the sound of that.

In terms of the glam-up routines each girl undergoes ahead of the big cocktail parties, Clare said things are surprisingly straightforward.

“They bring in these amazing makeup artists who do our hair and makeup. It’s so much fun. You feel like such royalty,” she explained.

But they do it for a reason – the lengthy filming time means the girls are putting their best faces forward for hours at a time.

“They always use such good quality products, so they’re all so easy to wear and last a long time,” she said.

By choice or not, the contestants are extremely close by the end of filming.

That said, it’s always a bit of a palava when it comes to taking off said makeup.

According to Clare, the women flock to the bathrooms and have to take it in turns to wash up before bed.

“It takes a shower and a good face scrub,’ she explained. “We generally get it done pretty quickly because we’ve got to get in there and out.”

Living in each other’s pockets is something that takes some getting used to, but the niceties are thrown out the window pretty quickly.

“We all became such good friends, we had to – we’re all seeing each other in our bras and undies! You’ve just got to be like, ‘who cares?'”

With a crib like the mansion, we’d be pretty happy to shack up with our girlfriends too.
