Hot tin roof

Anna sported a very Stella look for the Adventure issue. Game for pretty much anything, leaping barriers, shuffling up air vents and generally being a solid fab model, she produced some amazing poses giving the clothes an incredible silhouette against the sun.

The House of Subversion

The House of Subversion was a project in Craig’s mind for a long time. With 6 models and countless changes it was a challenging day but we were so pleased with the results. Chloe and James were the glam squad.

Burberry AW12 Show

Watch you looking at?

The trick is to keep the watches still. The elaborate behind the scenes can never be shown, for fear of giving away the trick. Much like a magician…. Still the security guards all present and carefully watching their pieces were quite impressed with Sarah and my ability to work the watches.

Damaris - Packing Heat

Damaris Presents Liberty Ross in a new short video, it was directed by Johnny Green. Based on the quote:

‘All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl’

- Jean-Luc Godard

Packing Heat transports viewers through a journey of reality, subconscious, conscious and fantasy. The colourful powder blows that mirror the beautiful hues of the lingerie can be seen through out the short film. The ultimate fantasy of girls, guns and power is reflected by Liberty here, and makes this a definite wish for both the men and the women who wear the pants (so to speak)

Temperley SS12

Decadence and old fashioned glamour walked through the British Museum at London Fashion Week…

MARNI SS 2012 show

Marni SS12 showed in a sweltering Milano on Sunday. You can watch the show here. Italian delights…

Burberry Womenswear Spring / Summer 2012 Live Stream

Burberry don’t do things on a small scale and every season the RTW Prorsum show out shines the previous season. Last February, Mr Bailey made it rain – indoors – so what ever happens later this afternoon it will have to be rather big to topple the control of weather.

Couture Lingerie

One of the first shoots of the year,  you have seen the behind the scenes and video so now the final images.  Elizabeth Gibson and I wanted to shoot lingerie with a feminine touch but without being too girly. Chloe Butcher provided powerful, incredible make up and James Langan, who you may know as a Great British Hairdresser finalist, built an outstanding silhouette of hair.

Spring is here

Bright colours and lightweight fabrics are all made for the spring and summer. Take your pick of the trends, lace, pleating or neon and wear as you like, perhaps with a little inspiration from us and our story….

A Higher Plain

So 16 pages is a fair amount to achieve, but we did it, even though we had a great deal of natural force against us. Wind, rain and ‘flu (for me). All I can say is enjoy the full results of another cracking team effort here.

Summer Light

Capturing the fading summer sun amongst the trees and fields. George and Milou were thrown in the deep end, literally, into the river and richly rewarded. See the full narrative here.

Court and Spark

Final layouts for the Soho story and Craig does it again. Sometimes getting up at the crack of dawn, working in the strangest of places and pushing the team makes it all worth while. Click here for full story.

Light fantastic

In the pitch black and tripping the lights (or so it seemed) James Stroud created these amazing visions with a handful of colours and a little movement.

Filters and gels were applied to the lights to link the images together in colour but everything is else is natural – well as natural as can be in a black hole with a runway.

Soho rocks in the back streets

Discovering the seedier side to Soho was interesting to say the least. Tattoo parlours and rehearsing studios are tucked away in the depths of Soho and Tottenham Court Road. It is not pretty but oh how it has seen some of the most creative talents, famous or otherwise.

Marionette

LohraLee Astor was strung up like a puppet, literally. She was transformed into a French marionette by Chloe Butcher and Craig Marsden, who were providing their skills for makeup and hair, respectively. From the delicate eyelashes which were becoming more and more intricate every shot to the ever growing volume of hair that Craig was fashioning into the most fabulous shapes.

Lazy lounge lingerie

Lazy lounge lingerie.

Heavier knits from Paul and Joe against the fragile underwear and silk layers from Lacivious and Paul Smith. Craig Fordham produces yet more images for the book we are working on.

Sport

Craig has had this idea for ages, so the pressure was on to perform to perfection. Going back in time and reflecting on a time when football was played in the longest of shorts, heaviest of boots and you always were in school uniform blazers made of heavy wool beforehand.
