The Fox & the Hound

Last weekend I had some free time to play with my new camera, my friend's slippers ballerina and some newspaper.

I came out with the concept of "The Fox & the Hound", an old Disney movie.
The softness and romantic mood of the ballerina is in juxtaposition with fold papers and the straightness of its lines.
This shooting was a testing of my new camera, and I might say that the money spent on it were worthy.
Here you can have a look to the shooting.

Talia and her brothel.

Talia is a playful and creative designer how challenged herself with her first collection by choosing an intriguing theme: "how does it feel to grow up in brothel".

The subject was inspired by the story of a boy who grew up in a brothel in Scotland and his experiences as a child. And because Talia's approach to design is innovative with a little bit of madness, the final collection is definitely unexpected.
