Today was strange. Strange good, I mean. I was blown away by the Rick Owens show, please by Juun J, pleased by Dries van Noten, struck by Yohji Yamamoto, entertained by Adam Kimmel. One thing that all of them had in common, not to mention yesterday’s Mugler, was the unusual cast. Especially Yohji, I guess. Beyond any pure formal quality of the garments, I am sensitive to the “social” value of an outfit.

I will post about all this in extenso later, but here are already a

i have 200 images of today’s Mugler show. It will take me a couple of days to process them.
Here is just Jason farrer and his freind whose name I have forgotten, Rico & Nicola, and Dario (not in that order).

Saying that you don’t have an interest for fire arms is denial. Let’s indulge ourselves sometimes.

today we tried:
44. Taurus Raging Bull
9mm Glock
AK 47

under the guidance of our friend David, who is also one of the most stunning tattoo astist I know. And completely self taught.

This looks real heavy man, real heavy.

I haven’t had the opportunity to post since I last left for Europe. Our calendar has been jammed and after warding off several “subtle” hints from my long lost brother in Louisiane I finally have a Sunday morning free. No rest for the wicked. As I work my way backwards on the chain of events that have kept our studio occupied over the past couple of months, please, excuse the time warp.

Last Monday, Rich, our team, and I had the honor of actively participating in GMHC’s Fashion Forward event as the stylists of a runway show featuring Narciso Rodriguez, Yigal Azrouël, Richard Chai, Anna Sui, DVF, and Simon Spurr. Monday evening’s event raised $250,000 for Mr. David Geffen’s GMHC organization which is dedicated to HIV education, prevention, and healthcare. We had such a wonderful time thanks to Tonya Miller and everyone at the GMHC who were so open minded and forward thinking in regards to our work. I enjoyed my first working experience with, long time friend, Mr. Andrew Weir and his team who worked so hard with us casting models for this show. It felt so good being backstage with the 56 models that donated their time and exuded such enthusiasm and joy towards this cause. There were so many notable pros on board and it wouldn’t be fair to start naming names but safe to say, with Sang Bleu in the house, there was no shortage of beautiful inked bodies.

I want to especially recognize Shakir Najieb who selflessly put in some serious overtime and exhibited full commitment and dedication to our team and this event. Props.

Legends and ladies who love ladies first…

Found this just now on my camera… such a good night in Stockholm! Big thanks again to everyone involved and all those who came down to represent. But most of all thank you to Eugenia for making it happen.

continuing from the previous post, a few snaps I did on my way through the backstage.
