I was recently lucky enough to
rummage through 6 or more boxes of past Project Runway designs at my school in
San Francisco. As a huge Project Runway
fan, this was really exciting! We got to
choose an outfit to style how we wanted, and collaborate with photographers at
our school to do a photo shoot. My model
was a classmate and friend Jordan Overstreet and my photographer was Miki
Hirai. The task for Miki was to use
dramatic rim lighting. I wanted to match
that with dramatic styling choices and powerful poses from Jordan.
I
wanted big hair, shimmering silver lipstick, and bold mascara with a powerful
stare into the camera. Onto the
clothes! None of the clothing was
labeled with the designer who created it, so we had to scour the internet to
find pictures of the garments. I found
an awesome teal wool jacket that appeared to be from Rami Kashou’s finale collection from season 4 that had meticulous
pleating detail all over the jacket. The
pleats that ran from the shoulder down to the elbow released to create an
exaggerated puff sleeve. The jacket also
had a large stand up collar that I had Jordan encapsulate herself in. The top Jordan is wearing was from Dimitri Sholokhov’s finale collection in
season 10. It was a sheer mesh top with
beading and applique detail along the neckline.
