It was raining heavily the day of this shoot but rain or no rain, it was shoot day and the scattered rain drops added a little bit of authenticity to my farm like editorial. Inspired by Saint Laurent’s all black and sleek collection of Spring 2013, I wanted to showcase my version of that collection, taking small references like the wide brim felt hat and oversized batwing arms of my Fendi dress paired with the YSL belt I picked up in Milan from the Foxtown outlets. I suppose minus the fact that this dress is Fendi (mind you, I picked it up at a designer second hand store for $400) you could easily re-create this look with any little black dress you have and accessorising with gold jewellery, a great hat and some ankle boots.
