Yves Saint Laurent: The Perfection of Style

Yves Saint Laurent {August 1, 1936 – June 1, 2008}

Tonight was all about YSL fashion. The Seattle Art Museum presents Yves Saint Laurent: The Perfection of Style, showcasing highlights from the legendary designer’s 44-year career. Drawn from the collection of the Fondation Pierre Bergé – Yves Saint Laurent, the exhibition features new acquisitions by the Foundation that have never been shown publicly before. My friend {Maggie} and I had a fashion date and really enjoyed the work of YSL – master couturier and fashion pioneer. The exhibit features over 100 couture pieces. It’s quite spectacular. Here is a glimpse…

GK Krew // photo shoot

Last week it was all about the GK Krew. This summer I partnered with IFBB Pro Bodybuilder, Mark Sindayen to build his brand {GiantKiller Krew} and create the look of his GK Krew Apparel line. The logo features Urban typography and his signature pose. It has been great working with Mark {@filipinogiantkiller} and his wife Loraine. Support GK Krew and buy cool apparel. The theme for the photo shoot was { ATHLETIC . STREET . URBAN}. Location: An elementary school on the Eastside.We wanted to keep the photo shoot urban and authentic to the brand. Loved working with all the models. Here is a glimpse of the photo shoot of the GK Krew photo shoot…

{dom + elle look book cover options}

It has been a busy, busy, busy summer. I wanted to share my latest project with you. Last March, I partnered with a couture luxury swimwear designer for dom + elle {see original blog post}. We partnered again to create the first look book for the brand. I absolutely love creating look books {fashion + graphics} my two favorites. I love doing graphic layouts and making each page unique and stylized to the brand. For the typography, I went with a modern serif font that was inspired by fashion magazines like Vogue + Elle. Love the thin quality of the type and mixing it up with the sharpie-like handwritten font. This was such a fun project. {You can see the online look book here} Here is a glimpse of the final cover and completed dom + elle look book…

backstage at Rodarte

The word for the look of the Rodarte 2016 Fall Fashion collection is ethereal. I personally think the backstage scene is more interesting than the Runway show. I love that these backstage photos show you the fashion behind-the-scenes in a cool and edgy way. Fashion, Hair, makeup…everything was on point. Here is a glimpse of the 2016 Fall Rodarte collection…

ps…sorry I’ve been a little quiet on the blog. Life has been extremely busy, but I missed you dearly.
