I was stoked to be able to link up with Tim B. and Rad Collector for this shoot at the Bowery Hotel, to kick of Rad Collector’s “Girlfriend” series featuring some the forthcoming WeSC gear. MarLen Diaz is the model. Styled by Tim Brodhagen.

N. Hoolywood chose an interesting venue, this fall. The show was at an auditorium at BMCC. Theater lighting was in effect which made it a bit challenging to shoot. But it was also a nice variation from the typical runway show.

This was a great show. General Idea was one of my favorites last spring, as well.

My favorite part about the Richard Chai show this fall, was the super bold lip color used on the women. The clothing was great too. But in my opinion, the makeup made the show.

The Native Son show was a hybrid runway/presentation. It went down at Chelsea Piers. I arrived early to shoot some back stage stuff. There was a moment after hair and makeup, where a handful of the models climbed through a window out onto the roof for a smoke. I followed them out. On the roof is where I snapped a few of my favorite images from this round of fashion week.

Shipley & Halmos held their Spring 2010 preview this week at their Greene St. showroom in NYC. I was a fan of basically everything that I saw. But, I particularly liked the green leather shoes and accessories. Check the coverage over here.

KAWS recently teamed up with Hennessy on a new bottle design. They kicked things off with a soiree at NYC’s New Museum, on Bowery. ?uestlove of the roots was manning the turntables. KAWS, was of course on hand mixing and mingling. Recap over here.

Olek, the famed crochet artist (who once completely covered the Wall St. bull in crochet work), had a private exhibit at Primary Wave, near Union Square. The exhibit was complete with live models donning crocheted full-body suits.

This week KAWS installed one of his pieces at the Standard Hotel in NYC’s meat packing district. The “Companion” will be on display at the MPD location for the duration of the summer. Here is the coverage on Curated and Highsnobiety.
