Oh how edgy are
these glamorous shots? This past quarter I got the opportunity to play stylist and create high-fashion looks with
designs featured on past episodes of Project Runway. The goal was to
breathe new life into these garments while incorporating our own
sense of style into the look. With pieces from designers Jay Nicolas
Sario, Uli Herzner and others, my classmates and I were truly
inspired to rummage around and find the perfect items for our
visions. For my looks I envisioned a strong fiery goddess, and her
counterpart, a softer, edgier version of the goddess. I found a
beautifully stitched red, black, and orange patent leather corset
that I knew would look fabulous with a pair of my black leather
short-shorts from Forever 21. I wanted small accents of gold jewelry
and a smooth ponytail to focus solely on the corset, and black buckle
wedge shoes. For my softer look, I found a snakeskin textured leather
bolero jacket, and a pair of cream high waisted leggings with a
beautiful screenprint of butterflies cascading down the side of the
legs. I chose a high ponytail, chunky jewelry and chunky tan Steve
Madden wedges to add a glam element to this edgy look. After weeks of
research, I was unable to find the designers responsible for these
pieces! So as they remain a mystery, we can still admire and guess
who this beautiful work belongs to. My best friend Nicole served as
my gorgeous model and muse, and my friend Tiffany provided hair and
makeup. All shots provided by photography student Gabriella
