Matthias Heiderich







In love with this guys work. 
The shapes he captures, along with the crisp detail of the subject is beautifully captivating. His use of contrasting colours and negative space makes his images visually compelling. and just pretty damn perfect.

Osman Studio

Here's a little Instagram diary from my 6 weeks interning at Osman Studio in London.
Got to see the whole production and show for S/S13 collection, such a great insight to a growing fashion brand.





Whilst I was working there, Beyonce wore one of Osman's to the Grammy awards! Such a great result for the brand, and I TOUCHED THIS PLAYSUIT... (does that mean I kind of touched Beyonce? #stalker)

Pretty Polly


Our latest uni project was a live brief from the hosiery brand Pretty Polly who wanted our help to re-position their SHAPEWEAR range to a younger audience. They wanted us to produce a viral video along with a social media and pr strategy.

Immediately we were thinking a baby monkey riding on a pig (wearing tights?) or Harlem shake edit... but we realised neither seemed quite brand appropriate and we needed to focus on the idea of shapewear being a girls secret.

So our group came up with the idea of Girls best kept secrets...with a twist. So addressing all the guys out there, this is the truth...

See what you think

Frida

so it's been disgustingly long since i've posted. crazy busy settling back into UK life, interning in London and finishing my final 2nd year term at University.

I wanted to share one of the final projects I was involved with at FIT in New York before i came home (cry). It was a huge group task- our own interpretation of visualising fashion. We chose to document it in the form of a fashion short, inspired by the Mexican fashion/artist muse Frida Kahlo (if you haven't heard of her, google NOW.) 

I was the stylist of the video- involving going out and scouting outfits and jewellery, yes, from THE best of the US department stores. Expensive shit. In order to create the modern Frida. 



























Shot at Brooklyn bridge, I give you,




'The Exodus of Dreams'






Here are some behind the scene shots on the bridge and touching up on set. oh yeh, we made her stand there in silk trousers and jacket and a jewel breast plate in NY's winter. 
commitment.







We also had an event for screening of the film and to exhibit some of the key looks from the shoot, take a look HERE. It was such a great evening, and I felt so proud to be part of such an amazing team.

never too much


Too much? 
Hell no.
Menswear needs some livening up, and Kate Eary's A/W 13 is perfection.
Hot pink clashed with sea blue merged with exuberant black create a dark undertone to the floral motifs. Her signature shimmer and modern-glam style is at its best here, and the strong aquatic patterns



 ...just wow.
