Sophie Turner for 1883 Magazine / Outtakes

I recently went through some of my old files to backup my computer and came across a bunch of never before seen outtakes from the feature on Games of Thrones actress Sophie Turner that I styled for 1883 Magazine.  I remember having a tough time choosing which images to use for the printed issue as there were so many amazing photographs by Alena Jascanka to pick from!  I thought I had to share them since there are such die hard Sansa Stark fans out there.  I hope you enjoy!

Love Game of Thrones? ME TOO! So I was way psyched to shoot Sophie Turner (aka Sansa Stark) for the June 2013 issue of 1883 Magazine. She was such a lovely kid (only like 17!) and loved all the looks I had for her. And who knew she isn't naturally a ginger but actually blonde? It was the first time working with Alena Jascanka whose passion for her work was totally contagious.  I've included a few shots that didn't make the printed issue (in stores now).  All in all a great day at the St. Martins Lane Hotel :)

One trend I've noticed in the FW12 menswear shows coming from Milan & Paris is the sheer volume of capes and poncho's coming down the runway.  From Dior Homme & Calvin Klein Collection to Mugler & Yohji Yamamoto, menswear designers are pushing the image of the caped crusader (though I tend to see them more as the bad guy than the hero out to save the day - an idea that is perfectly outlined in this article entitled 'Winter Villains' written for 1883 Digital).  

So of course I wanted to try rocking the super villain look myself. I've worn capes before and have had this double breasted number from Japanese label Cabane de Zucca for a few seasons now, but it's been awhile since I dug it out of the back of my closet.  To add to the bad guy mood I styled it with this Jesus crucifix body chain that Burger bought from a jewelry stall at the Sunday Up Market on Brick Lane along with these super high, super cool riding boots.  They were a gift from Korean designer DUYOUNG JUNG after I walked in his VanHart Homme collection during Seoul Fashion Week FW11.

want 0.8: calvin klein ss12 shoes

I can't stop thinking about these shoes! I noticed them on  a few months ago while flicking through the Calvin Klein Collection for spring/summer 2012 on my beloved style.com app on my iPhone, but didn't really appreciate their full potential until seeing them up close and personal last week on a location shoot. I recently started working as a fashion assistant  for 1883 Magazine and for a cover story we were working on a selection from the most recent Calvin Klein Collection was sent over, including a pair of these shoes in grey. The matching color of the leather and the laces paired with the transparent plastic platform sole in the same tone is my total dream shoe.  I want a pair in every color!  Here are just a few of my favorite looks from the rest of the collection. I'm a huge fan of the wide fitting trousers in athletic synthetic fabrics and I can't get enough of the one color head-to-toe look for men, similar to that pink suit from The Very Best of Versace for H&M.
