White in the Forest

Slowly but surely I'm starting to get a portfolio together of some of my favourite designs I have done so far. So this week I decided to get that going. With the help of Dirk van Niekerk as photographer, Crowning Glory for the flower crown and the very talented singer/songwriter Chantel Van T we put together a shoot in the Newlands forest.

A little bit about the design; our brief was to design for any of the Zodiac signs, me personally being a Scorpio I designed my conceptualized dress around the personalties of the people that falls under the zodiac sign but also concentrated on the physical built of a scorpio. Like for example his pinchers (I think that's what it's called) at the breast area. His layers on his body I showcased on the neck and the center back, but just to make it a bit more feminine and suiting I used mesh as my main fabric to get that flowing effect, I also used a lot of lace applique and lace shorts just to make it more appealing and feminine.

Not even joking there were soooooo many great shots I literally couldn't choose. So I could only decide on a minimum of 23 photos and nothing less. I'm pretty sure I still have to make it shorter to probably 5 photos or something for my portfolio aaaahhhhhhh #fashionproblems.
Enjoy!
And that's it for today folks!!
