VEGAN PHOTO SHOOTING

The second photo shooting as a part of London College of Style curriculum was for the vegan clients. We picked up the clothes according to the vegan clients and their expectations. We were very attentive to the fact that our clients were vegan and our choice of clothes, shoes and accessorizes shouldn't have included any animal product. We planned the photo shooting for the 2017 Spring/Summer collection. We agreed on using the trend bold colors and frills for the looks of the photo shooting. 



We are divided into two groups. Each group made their preparations as if they are actually working for specific magazines. My group decided to work for Love Magazine. Therefore, we set the our theme as rebellious, city-dweller, young, joyful and free-spirit.



We created a mood board according to this theme, from make-up to the clothes. I really found it difficult to find vegan clothes. There were barely no choices for vegans in most of the brands. Morever, there were not many clothes that reflect the definition of rebellious, crazy and off the beat. 


That’s why I decided to create my own vegan clothes. I adapted a pareo which I purchased from Primark. I have cut it and have a tailor sewed it as a top. I wrote vegan slogans on the underwear that again I purchased from Primark with watercolor paint. The slogans read as: “Love animals. don't kill them”. Lastly, I clung some leaves of lettuce into the big hoop earrings. 


I have discovered the creative side of me, creating something from nothing and give it a life and form along with a philosophy behind it.

MY EXPERIENCE OF WORKING AT BACKSTAGE OF A COLD WALL AND BELSTAFF Thanks to London College of Style, I had the chance to work at the backstage of  A Cold Wall  and  Belstaff  during the London Fashion Week Mens’. I would love to talk about my experiences and what kind of skills you can gain if you are at the beginning of your career as fashion stylist as myself or if you inspire to be one.  At the backstage, I had the greatest opportunity to see the whole process of backstage from beginning to the end, to the catwalks and presentations. It made me realize many aspects to see what it means to be working as a fashion stylist at the backstage.  For example, I put all the clothes, shoes and accessories on the rails in an order that they have decided before for the day of the show and each of what belongs to the specific model. After having make-up and hair done, I dressed the models by relying on what looks has been set and sty...

First thing was picking up some samples from PR companies. Thus, school wanted us to pi...
