Katie Shillingford's Beautiful Wedding










Katie has been one of my favourite stylists as long as I can remember, I love her vision as well as her own personal style. These pictures by Amy Gwatkin show for me the ultimate fashion wedding, a breathtakingly beautiful Gareth Pugh gown accompanied by soft pink waved hair by Alex Brownsell of Bleach and bold berry lips courtesy of Alex box. Her husband; another Alex, in a simple black suit whilst the bridesmaids wore Craig Lawrence. The rings were designed by Dominic Jones and Katie's evening outfit was a gold dress from best friend and long time colleague, Gareth Pugh's aw collection.

A Balletic Performance...











" A BALLETIC PERFORMANCE…"

PHOTOGRAPHED BY BEN TOMS
STYLED BY KATIE SHILLINGFORD
MAKEUP BY ALEX BOX
HAIR BY GARETH VAN CUYLENBURG
MODEL: RANYA MORDANOVA

Katie Shillingford is one of my all time favourite stylists, she is everything I hope to be as a stylist myself and I hope one day I could work for her,
In this recent editorial from Dazed and Confused I love how she has used (as it says) Springs raw edges and powdery textures, I think the way the colour has been used is exquisite, I feel a real Edward Scissorhands vibe as if Ranya was the child between Edward and Kim.

My favourite details of the shoot are mainly the layering and mixes of textures like the leather and badages , loose knit from Gareth Pugh, sheer pink pieces paired with the amazing Burberry trousers and the tiny hint of a latex t-shirt by Topshop Unique with a Gaultier trench,a rose Lanvin dress and paper Margiela trousers.
 A perfect Burton-esque creepy romance story. I love it.
