L’Oreal Colour Trophy

Blog

I got the chance to work with this amazing makeup artist/hair stylist Martin Carter and his creatives at his salon Mr Face. They had to send in the images for L’Oreal Colour Trophy competition and I helped them with styling. One of the images made it to the southern regional final and when they had their big show we won with our second look. We are now in the Grand final!

We work really good together as a team and we have so much fun!

 

London Update

Blog

A lot have happened since I moved to London. Working with commercials and short films, but the best thing was when I found about LCS. I missed working in fashion so much but with no network its really difficult. Through the college I met so many industry professionals which led to paid jobs during the course and I also got friends for life.
When I started to work as a stylist I did it with a “learning by doing” philosophy. Now I feel a lot more confident and I learnt so many tricks about styling, as well as the business side of things, here in London.

A COLD WALL – LONDON FASHION WEEK MENS

Blog

When I received the email that I was going to work backstage for A COLD WALL on London Fashion Week Mens I got goosebumps and I felt really excited. This time as a dresser and not as a makeup artist as I am used to. I started to count the years when I last worked on a Fashion week and I counted it to 8 years ago. It was on Stockholm Fashion Week for a jewellery brand called Miljaki. At that time I worked only with makeup and I had a lot of shows behind me as a makeup director.
I remember all the preparations before the shows, casting models, come up with ideas for the makeup looks and set up a crew and all meetings with designers and so on…Exiting times and my God I have missed it so much!

When I first had a look at this brand I immediately thought about Off White. After a google search I discovered that the designer Samuel Ross worked with Off White as Virgil Abloh assistant for several years. A COLD WALL is a brand to have your eyes on.

Here is what BOF writes about the brand:
“Within just two years, the brand — known for its logoed t-shirts, distressed hoodies and utilitarian outerwear, which takes style cues from the tribes of the British class system — has seen rapid success. Between 2016 and 2017, A-Cold-Wall reached £1.3 million ($1.7 million) in revenue, while its stockists, which include Ssense, Barneys New York and Antonioli, grew by over 110 percent between Autumn/Winter 2017 and Spring/Summer 2018 seasons to 52. Recent collaborations with Nike and Fragment Design have further increased the brand’s exposure amongst street-savvy Millennial shoppers.”

Me in the middle surrounded by such nice girls, all of them worked backstage as dressers. Most of them are now in my class on London College Of Style.
