the way she wears it

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of styling Julie Goodwin for a clothing label (which I will release when the ad campaign comes out). I am a huge fan of Masterchef and was extremely excited to be working with the winner from last season.

Julie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Sweet, funny, talkative, happy to be changed in and out of outfits, prodded and poked to make the outfit sit perfectly. She even discussed my new kitchen fit out with me and told me how to make perfect rice. (I can cook lots of things but rice I always screw up)

The location house we shot in was in Newport and was gorgeous. We entered it via a hill lift which was fun with all the clothing, props etc.

The day got even better when we witnessed dolphins and whales from the view.

A few behind the scenes images. Stay tuned for the actual ad campaign which I will put up soon.

The view and the table setting. I love jobs where I not only style the clothes but I do the props, table settings, flowers etc (in this image I had only just started doing the table)

I am often asked what it is like working on fashion shoots. This is a pretty extreme one, considering we had 11 models but it’s a pretty good indication. Check out the video.

Earlier this morning, actress Katrina Bowden appeared on Sunrise and The Morning Show.

Katrina plays the sexy and sometimes ditzy secretary to Tina Fey’s character Liz Lemon.

I am a massive fan of 30 Rock (I admit to having a bit of a crush on Alec Baldwin) so was very excited when I was given the job of styling her for these appearances and a few others (which I will blog about as they happen)

Katrina is in Sydney as the face of Wish Clothing. She is shooting the Spring campaign.

She has been an absolute pleasure to work with so far and I am looking forward to styling her next week for some magazines which I can’t reveal yet.
