Lily Donaldson (in) Model’s Street Style
Before Anna Sui FW 12.13, I was taking a break on the sidewalk, and suddenly, this magnificent blonde with heels was walking down the streets alone. I had to look twice, three times to make sure I was thinking right and was not out of my mind dreaming on such a great image opportunity. The
Best Dressed Model of Day 7 was Miss Donaldson! Lily was everything and beyond when I asked to photograph her. She was sweet and so welcoming. Lily made it such a wonderful pleasure to photograph her- the English rose, au naturel in the concrete jungle of New York City. I could not ask for more. Lily was perfect walking down the streets in heels - all professional and yet extremely sweet and nice! She said that she was happy to be healthy and back to walking the catwalk! How perfect is Lily! <3
This moment was just divine, and it brightened the end of the weirdest NYFW season ever - unanimously voted by photographers in the streets and backstage and many of the models. This season, positive energy and happiness from the models were an ALL-TIME low, and everyone felt it! =( Something about Fall/Winter 2012.13 is very off, and I have not found all the words to describe it for you guys, but my lack of sharing posts hopefully gives you an idea of the lack of inspiration and exhaustion that I have been feeling alongside all my photographer friends, who go model hunting with me during fashion week. Even with some less than enthused experiences from my
tweets and the low energy, a happy moment with one of my favorite models of all time reminds me how it’s all worth it to do what I love and enjoy regardless of how others may misinterpret me. =)
