This is by far one of my favorite editorials I've worked on.  It was a feature on the SS13 collection by Acne Studios and it was my first time working with Mark Shearwood, who've I've since worked on a few others stories with. I found the styling of Acne's catwalk presentation to be quite heavy and weighed down, so I really wanted to lighten that up in this story by not doing quite so much layering.  Super happy with the result and I love how both these girls worked together - they almost look like the same girl except you'll notice Mary's eyebrows are quite dark whereas Marina's are bleached out to look like they aren't even there.

This outfit shot was taken last month during London Fashion Week, I've just been way slow in updating these days.  I was so in love with this pleated neon top that Issey Miyake Men lent me to wear and the color popped so well against the navy trousers, cobalt blue clutch and sunglasses and powder blue loafers.  I'm definitely a fan of shade blocking at the moment!

See if you can find me in this adorable spread from the LFW Daily featuring a rainbow of street style.  London is so vibrant and not so into the black on black looks that many fashion cities routinely follow.

SS13 Menswear Trends

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, quite a few menswear trends have emerged from the SS13 shows during London Collections: Men with neon, specifically hot pink, being one of them.  From the bright jumpers and blazers at Topman Design (left) to the sporty stripe details at Sibling(centre) neon was making a resurgence from it’s early 90′s heydays.  Edward and Benjamin, the boys behind Meadham Kirchoff (right), even went so far as to dip-dye their models hair to match their pattern heavy neon looks.

ss13 menswear favorites

After the short but sweet three day menswear fashion week debut at London Collections: Men, the 1883 Magazine fashion team has rounded up their favorite catwalk looks for SS13. Here are mine:

(l) This sherbet yellow three piece suit  from Hackett London makes me wish I had a tea date with the Queen or knew how to bet on horses.

(r) Chinese designer Xander Zhou was my favorite collection from day one.  Not many guys can pull off lavender and prison stripes, but this look makes me want to try.  

(l) I love the pink knit t-shirt from the Baartmans and Siegel collection paired with the rose tinted sunglasses.  Plus the mesh slip-on plimsolls were totally my childhood summer shoe - I immediately ordered a similar pair online when I got home that night.  
(r) The American style football jerseys with matching shorts at Topman Design made me wish for a sportier disposition.  Alas...
