the shoe of the season
At the Launch of When Tommy met Anna at the room, the shoe that the cool boys were wearing was the Prada Creeper from the Spring collection. Both Kirk Pickersgill and Tommy Ton donned them, they have also been seen on Susie Sheffman of Fashion Magazine and Tu Ly.
the Fashion Editor
A modern day Diana Vreeland was the inspiration for an upcoming editorial for a Fashion Magazine story. The concept was the idealized behind the scenes vision of the day in the life of a fashion editor, Fashion Director Susie Sheffman pulled so many great accessories, unfortunately only a few actually make it to the pages of the magazine, here is a sample of all the gorgeous Hermes, Celine, Bottega bags and Tom Ford shoes that were on set.
Black Fleece
I think what Brooks Brothers is doing with their Black Fleece line is spot on, I visited the shop on Bleecker Street, the staff was super helpful and the vibe at the store was relaxed and unpretentious.
everybody is doing it..
It is all about collaboration, even Hermes is working with Colette on a bunch of hip new scarves to appeal to a different target market. The scarves will be in the Shop for Fall 2010.
Lovely Bones
I love Riccardo Tisci’s collection for Givenchy, it’s not very Audrey, but then again there will never be another Audrey.

Martina Sorbara of Dragonette is hot
I recently shot the captivating and intelligent Martina Sorbara of Dragonette, check it out in the current issue of Dress to Kill magazine.
heaven is a place on earth
I’m often asked where is my favorite place to shoot, I have been to some great location, some stunning ones here in Canada, but one that rates amongst my top five would have to be the secluded gem that is Cape Santa Maria,Long Island Bahamas….
The beach is pristine and I mean PRISTINE, one can wade for hours in the ankle deep water, it’s paradise.
Rivini in Martha Stewart
The new ad campaign featuring the stunning Olga Maliouk for the talented designer Rita Vinieris of Rivini is in the current issue of Martha Stewart Weddings on new stands now. Check out the full collection at White Toronto
The Fashion Jungle
Animal print was out in full force in the crush that led up to the eagerly anticipated Dolce and Gabbana show.
The devotes were out in full force, including Rachel Zoe and Bryan Boy. The Gentlemen did not disappoint, many a fashion editor was almost moved to tears, widely considered to be one of the top shows of Milan Fashion week,the show was presented online and watched all over the world. Kirk Pickersgill from Greta Constantine was full of emotion after the show and revealed that it reminded him why he “wanted to be a designer”
Prada kink
I had the pleasure of viewing the Prada collection for fall 2010 in the spectacular Prada show space. The Prada collection is one that must be seen up-close to appreciate, it is a world that “Fast Fashion” can not compete in.
The whole feeling I get from the Prada collection is subversive sexuality. Only Prada can make p.v.c. Lady like.
I’ve believe you have more sexual power when you leave something to the imagination, Mrs. Prada seems to agree with me. I’ve always had a weakness for fashion from the late 50′s early 60′s when so much was happening behind the doors of the perfect lady’s home… I feel this collection reflects the power of such masterful directors like Wong Kar Wai, The sexual tension in movies such as In The Mood for Love is exaggerated by the emotion repression the characters are engulfed in.
The only shoes that felt new this season were the ones presented by Prada, all those stacked platforms one sees on the streets and in other collections just seem tired and old. The Fall 2010 Prada colection is the perfect wardrobe for Eva Marie Saint to seduce Cary Grant in a modern North by Northwest.
