Fashion Shoot: Behind The Scenes

Hey!

So as you all know by now I have a full time job as a Fashion Stylist, so this week I thought I'd take you behind the scenes to see what we get up to and what its like as a stylist.

It's not always as glamorous as you think, but that doesn't mean it isn't fun! This week we wanted a very specific set, which would cost a fortune to have made and as we have a strict budget we decided to build it ourselves! 

It may have been cardboard and it might not be that neat but just you wait till we get it in photoshop! :) besides we had great fun doing it!!!

Here is Roy our grumpy photographer busy cutting out...


And he's me having a bit of fun with the already cut out trees.



Here's my clothes rail ready for the shoot, lots of gorgeous outfits! Can you spot everything you like?


All my jewellery ready to go!


Then it was time to get our beautiful model from Nemesis Model Agency Manchester Sarah Bannister ready. For the make up at the beginning we was going for a more natural look, and we built on top of it during the day.


One shot all done and ready for the edit, what do you think of my styling? Would you wear this?


Another, loving this, it's going to be great for social media... which bag would you choose to go with this outfit?



And now you can see what we were making with the cardboard... we love these shots can't wait to get them in photoshop! I can promise you it looks better on the actual camera!


And it seems little red riding hood showed up! Perfect for our winter wonderland theme :)


Finally some finished edits....



When I can access the rest I'll post the other finished photos up too!

The team for the day was...
Photographer: Roy Bridgetwood
Make Up Artist: Kat Horrocks
and obviously the stylist was me!!
(All the names are linked up if you want to take a look at them)

Screen Printing - Bitmapping

So the other day at uni we learnt a little tip to add depth to our screen prints, its called bitmapping First load the image you want to use in photoshop Heres mine - its something I'm looking at using for mothers day The you'll need to convert you image to Grayscale - to do this go to [Image] [Mode] [Grayscale] You'll then need to adjust the contrast of the image to help add depth later - to do this [Image] [Adjustment] [Levels], play around with the slider until you get the desired effect - you can also use [Brightness/contrast] but I prefer Levels Your image must be a minimum of 150ppi, although it is better to be 300ppi. To adjust the number of pixels within your image select [Image] [Image Size] and you can change the resolution Now its time to Bitmap the image - to do this go to [Image] [Mode] [Bitmap] - this will open this window change all of the settings to be the same as those in the image. Depending on your type of screen mesh you may need to adjust the

10 Most Shocking Tennis Outfits Ever

This week sees the start of Wimbledon and as Wimbledon is the smartest, most well dressed tournament there is, I thought it would be fun if we looked back at some of tennis' biggest fashion blunders. At number 10 we have Anne White from Wimbledon, it may have been 1985 Anne but that doesn't excuse turning up in your pyjamas to work. Next up we have tennis' very own Lady Gaga, Bethanie Mattek, who is famous for her outrageous dress sense, although this outfit from the 2007 US Open is relatively tame for her. At number 8 we have the five times Wimbledon champion Serena Williams with her biker inspired look from the Australian Open in 2004. Nice shin pads Serena. At number 7 sees Bethanie again, this time dressed as a cowgirl at the 2005 US Open. You're playing tennis Beth, not attending a fancy dress party!  Bethanie is still holding on to the title of worst dressed tennis player at number 6, sporting this design from Alex Nomble at Wim

Roberto Cavalli Fashion Illustrations

While I was a Fashion and Textiles Design student I was forever looking for the top designer's fashion illustrations, as I always found them so inspirational. I've recently stumbled across some I really love by Roberto Cavalli, so I thought I share them with you. This first two are designs made for Cindy Crawford and Georgia May Jagger, and they are amazing. Copyright of Roberto Cavalli This one below is for the lovely Sharon Stone. The snake back detail will look incredible, and adds a perfect little twist to the classic strapped back/backless dress. The next one was designed for Liu Wen, and it's my favourite. The colour and the indication of the pattern are beautiful. I love the expressive lines of the design and how subtle shading shows how the dress will fall. You could only expect the best from an amazing designer like Roberto Cavalli and he definitely delivers. Copyright of Roberto Cavalli There is no need to try and imagine how the finishe
