you sure do love this western cowboy stuff

 

[softgrey]

i'm actually working with a western them right now...but i'm trying to make it more rock n roll...lenny kravitz....don't want it to get too goofy western...ya know?...

i wanna be a cowboy....and you can be my cowgirl...
had a boyfriend in college who sang that to me...
that's when i knew it was time to break up with him...

 

[purechris]

OOOH! Soft, when you're done you can send wardrobe my way, you know how I love that look.

JLindeberg has great stuff that would work for that, esp their denim shirts (which I thought I would NEVER wear).

 

[softgrey]

actually...you just gave me an idea chris...i think i need to go get a tuxedo shirt and rip the sleeves off...don't i?...

 

[purechris]

Very HOT! ruffles or pleats? What about bandanas/scarves around the neck. I love this look in editorials and on runways, but feel like it looks "superfag" in real life.

oops, I think we hijacked HedKandis topic.

Sorry

 

[softgrey]

i think it looks 'superfag' on the runway too!!!

maybe knotted in front like a bolo tie...i was thinking of trying that...
more punk-a-billy than yeehaa... :

got some great wrist cuffs at urban just now...
there are only a couple of men's looks though...mostly girls...
it's weird ...cause i'm having more fun with the guys looks...
it's so rock-n-roll...like dressing a band....

I was totally seeing punk-a-billy, not yeehaa! Maybe tear a strip from a bandana so it looks rough and tumble. You said "bolo tie" and I got scared--maybe just leather cording?

got some great wrist cuffs at urban just now...

I was thinking of your cuff with the straps-or is it too celtic?

How are you dressing the girls? In the same theme, or juxtaposed?

Jealous. The last job i got styling was for kids in a commercial for the Historical Arms Museum.

chris...i've got three sections-one sort of punk-new wave(gwen stefani)
one hip hop/dance (beyonce)
one rock n roll (lenny kravitz)

this one is the rock n roll

i was thinkink about how to do the bracelet w/cord hanging-like my celtic one ....i need a bunch....i'm gonna get some leather cording...and also add some metallic sequin and lthr tops and accessories to make it really pop on the runway...

it's a lot of work...but it's really fun...i have complete creative freedom...

trying to decide if i can mix blk and brown in this section...

 

[purechris]

Sounds fun.
Runway? What's it for?
I'd mix black with a dirty rusty brown. How about a little fur (real or fake)? You could go with a fox type that has reddish brown, white and black. Is faded black denim too white trash/Van Halen-esque. I personally love it.

runway...and i'm mixing all different washes including blk and dirty bleached out...
i think the rock n roll is winding up more hippie than hard rock...so no van halen...plus i hate those hair bands...
...lol...there's some suede and fringe...i can't dirty up the models or anything...no time during a show...and it's not the right market...

also just found out-maroon 5 is playing at the event...
don't tell belowen...

 

[purechris]

eeew. It's not like I LIKE VH! even though I have a strange love for Guns and Roses, now not then--I think they're funny.

What happened to the punk-a-billy? Is it more "Almost Famous" Penny Lane and the Band Aids type of a look on the girls?

 

[purechris]

Are you going to Magic in Vegas? I know they have a runway event going on with Maroon 5 following.
