for the past few seasons i've been completely obsessed with embroidery, whether new or vintage, i'm always on the hunt for it. i managed to pick up an embroidered/jacquard vintage jacket in korea and have been trying to get my hands on some equally dope jeans which seems to be impossible. 

i've always been really into unique fabrics and the techniques designers use to create their pieces. i'm just a sucker for it and pretty much am just drawn to different textures. 
it's those details that just set things off.

a few weeks ago i was asked to style a shoot for the upcoming issue of the intercontinental hotel's "view' magazine. it was a different aesthetic to my usual street styling with a much more luxurious tone throughout. of course i still added my own signature, combining the luxury pieces with a little edge. the shoot came together amazingly and the final shots look dope.

an awesome team was pulled together including my friend kiri modeling and my homie jordy shooting behind the scenes.

check out some of his shots below and keep an eye out for the upcoming "view" mag this october.

instant vintage

a couple of weeks ago i was asked by my mate sam from volklore to style his upcoming ss14 collection. there's some really dope pieces coming, lots of pattern and print, and while it's quite crazy, it has this really timeless feel about it that you would see it available in vintage stores in years to come.

i called the homies and we pulled together a pretty rad little shoot. it was a really fun day... beers, pizza, skating, music and plenty of laughs.

check out some of the behind the scenes shots below.

i picked up this gridiron inspired tee a little while back, i love it. take's me back to the 90's when i used to rock oversize jerseys everywhere with my pants sagged below my ass, as well as when i lived in sydney and had numerous nicknames from my homies with a standout name being loc(o). it was basically made for me.
