Elite Model Look 2009 – Swiss Finale

The finale of the Swiss Elite Model Look contest took place last week at the Maag Music Hall in Zurich. Several hundred girls applied for the Swiss contest, which will lead to the world finale in China in October. Unlike myriad beauty competitions or TV model “reality” shows, the result of the Elite Model Look competition is often a real opportunity for the winners to enter the business as established models. Some of the world’s top models have been “discovered” through this contest over the years.

Summer In Milano, Looks for Now

A few months ago I was in Milan and had the opportunity to shoot this fashion editorial in the Italian National Showroom of the Herman Miller furniture company. It features Herman Miller’s new Embody chair, which is the next generation of ergonomic office seating beyond their iconic Aeron. I love the spine on this thing, it’s such an interesting form. So are Jolita and Barbora in these fabulous summer looks.

Missoni, Spring-Summer 2010 Collection at Milan Moda Uomo

A blanched hardwood runway, like a long pier, is lit as if by moonlight, setting off the warm pastel accent garments in Missoni’s predominantly sky (comfort) blue Spring/Summer 2010 men’s collection.
