I conceived, produced and directed this editorial for Nylon Germany featuring the model in specific flower inspired limited color palettes juxtaposed with Freakebana floral and accessory still-life assemblages for the spring issue.
Monday morning I went backstage with The CFDA to the Bode presentation to live paint. Here are some paintings and there are hyperlapses posted to Instagram.
I conceived this story where taste could be explored in food and style (Wayne Thiebaud, Irving Penn and Jurgen Teller on crack). A white tablecloth set with strange, unusual and colorful fare (such as urchins and durian fruit); an indulgent feast for one whose personal style is at once elevated, playful and eccentric. I conveyed vibe and details in visual form (check my moodboards section) and assembled a team of genius creatives to collaborate with for the story to run in Nylon Germany. See more after the jump….

Marchesa invited me backstage during NYFW to capture my perspective before the models hit the runway. Their gowns are utterly magical. The details are beyond exceptional. Models floated around in ombre toile and shimmering gold. It was something out of A Midsummer Night’s Dream rather than a rainy night in NYC. Anyway, I illustrated these images for them to share on Instagram.
Now that my book is rooted in the world, I’m excited to be playing around with different styles and collaborating with friends and clients again. Check out some new work in my photo incorporated site section. Also follow along as I collaborate with some stylists on Thursdays on Instagram using #ladiesbeautycollective.
