Henna, Hairbands & Other Projects

The Boden Summer Catalogues have launched and it seems the weather too is playing along and actually being quite warm for a change which is lovely! So as the catalogues come out....so do my creations. For Summer 2013 I have made props for Womenswear, Johnnie b, and Mini and it is lovely to see them all now in the catalogues.

The Summer Johnnie b catalogue, shot in LA but with an Ibiza-y vibe. We shot at a gorgeous house on the beach in Malibu, and then at another beautiful location up in the hills. Our art director had a picture of some henna-d feet which she wanted as inspiration for this shot, but of course we couldn't put actual henna on the girls as it had to come off for the next shot, so I managed to do these lovely swirly decorations with a brown felt tip pen - looks pretty real doesn't it??

It seems like so long ago, when on October 1st I posted a picture of the lovely silk headbands I'd been asked to make for the Summer Womenswear catalogue. Little did I know that these would end up being used in many many shots in the catalogue, which was very exciting to see. 

And finally, in the Mini catalogue, I made some little cloth toys for a previous baby shoot and these ended up in the Baby Boden summer shoot, although in the hands of a rather scared looking child. I love seeing my creations in print so the summer catalogues have proved to be very exciting for me.
