A POT OF GOLD

Azzedine Alaia 1990

We wanted to show Alaia in it's natural beauty so no makeup and no shoes

Amazing back detail

This weekend i spent all day Saturday going through my storage closets in my garage. I was looking to see what pieces I still had from my carefree days living in New York in the 80's and 90's. What I found was like a pot of gold! Azzedine Alaia, Comme des garcon, Matsuda, John Galliano, Romeo Gigli, and Jean Paul Gaultier. I even seem to have kept some young designers of that time like Isaia, Issac Mizrahi, Thea Anema, Brian Early and Patrick Cox. We were so excited I immediately put Camilla in the beautiful Alaia dress I wore for my wedding. And WOW! it fit her perfectly. There is so much more to come since we have to show all the beauty we've unearthed.

All That Glitters

Hi everyone, this is a photo shoot that i did with my friends. My sweet friend Lisa Inoue took the pictures for us, she's a great photographer and loves to use us as her practice. We decided to call it all that glitters because we were going with a theme that revolved around clothes that sparkle. Originally we were only going to use gold clothing hence "All that glitters is gold" but we figured that anything with some shimmer and shine would do for a good shoot. We always have a lot of fun doing these and put a lot of time and effort into doing them. I hope you enjoy seeing some of my favorite shots.
