As part of the Two Blocks festival – an event bringing street art and fashion into the spotlight – some of our favourite local talents will be performing/working on a live fashion shoot that they are inviting everyone in Melbourne to witness.
Now I love photoshoots – it is fantastically rewarding to watch all the dressing up and creative elements come together if you are involved and just plain voyeuristic fun if you are simply a bystander. I’ve been lucky to take a peek onset or help out on a couple (invite me to come along to your own projects, people – I’ll show the world your stuff and be an extra pair of hands ;) ). The only downside is they usually take much longer than you think!
If you want to see what really goes into the creation of that one perfect image you can watch as stylist Philip Boon, photographer Christian Blanchard, hair and makeup artist Narelle Hall and a pair of gorgeous young things (thanks for the heads up Ben!) from Vivien’s bring it all together this Saturday 25th July from 3pm in the Shot Tower Square at Melbourne Central. Judging by some of their previous creative work it’s going to be a sight.
