I was privilaged to spend more time with this wonderful young woman this year and we managed a couple of shots away from Somerset House. The 1st 2 shots were taken on Waterloo Bridge (which is my favourite in London because of the views in both directions of the city). The next 3 were taken after the Masha Ma show in Covent Garden. The 1st of these 3 was the one we had set up. The 2nd 2 were a gift as by pure chance we stumbled across this wonderful leafy location in the middle of the city. You can take the girl out of the country.... Our final shot was in Somerset House on Rosalind's last day in town. She had just had lunch with her Dad and honorary Uncle and popped by to say hello before heading home. Thank You Rosalind it was a pleasure.<br />I have just noticed she has just posted about her trip to London too. So you can <a href="http://clothescamerasandcoffee.blogspot.com/">pop over there with this link </a>to read her perspective on her time at LFW.<br /><br />You can <a href="http://www.vogue.co.uk/spy/street-chic/2011/09/milan-fashion-week/milan-fashion-week/gallery">view my MFW Vogue shots here.</a> All 39 up there now.

As you can see from her ticket she was on her way to the Marni show which was held in a lovely sun trapped courtyard full of beautiful morning light.<br /><br />I had never been to Milan before and was thrown in at the deep end. The 1st day there I spent mostly walking from show to show. Not easy I can tell you as they are not always close together. 2nd day I managed to get a couple of press buses. Not ideal either as at times they leave a bit to early to catch people as they leave the shows or not early enough to reach the next show in time....hey. Public transport or taxis I hear you cry, well the trams are lovely but not extensive and the Metro also has little coverage. Taxis, you cant flag down a taxi you have to call (language barrier) them or find a hotel to call one for you. And when you do get a taxi oh boy they are expensive, makes London cabs look positively cheap. It was a great experience all the same though. And to be shooting for Vogue was just so amazing.<br /><br />You can <a href="http://www.vogue.co.uk/spy/street-chic/2011/09/milan-fashion-week/milan-fashion-week/gallery">view my Vogue shots here.</a> There are 24 up there now.

It was a role he had at Uni that has just developed further. His style influences are British heritage and Ralph Lauren. Favourite places in London are Chelsea for lunch and Embankment for dinner. There are 2 surprising things about Robert. Firstly his height, he is 6ft 6 and a half. I had been looking at some people across the road and turned and suddenly there he was. I was so amazed he at first thought I was going to ask for directions. Secondly, he is training to be an officer in the TA. Robert wears, glasses from the Tie Rack, jacket by Feraud, kerchief by TM Lewin, tie Smith and Rutherford, shirt M&S, trousers Topman, vintage shoes and is carrying an ASOS bag. <br /><br /><table style="width: auto;"><tbody><tr><td><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/e5Ot0BfFaZSyOYp4LutFNg9FgPmIgFtkXsv-pnik548?feat=embedwebsite"><img height="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFFHQFiFHQx_C-ey8adj5hEUbGv_TeX_7AYpLX4qAnoMnnzc7KPWvWxq95lDAu7W1mZRQ6qxmrlGkTW1AMqfX8_8dwouMCURNIw3Ajk3X_2xcB-HVrZWQK0hhu474EdRew2HXYO2Dte4g1/s800/Nikoleta%252520Petrof%252520sig.jpg" width="500" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-align: right;">From <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/fashionistable.blogspot.com/Fashionistable?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCMaR78ym_NjXywE&feat=embedwebsite">Fashionistable</a></td></tr></tbody></table>Nikoleta Petrof is job hunting and would like to do something creative. When she lived in Greece she worked in Marketing and has her own blog <a href="http://create-in-marketing.blogspot.com/">create in marteting.</a> One of her surprises was that she was getting married in a few weeks, back home in Greece.

Louise was out for the night with her sister had just had a an argument with her. Louise decided to leave and literally on the way out the door of the Electric Ballroom in Camden she bumped into Duncan who spoke to her. Normally she said she would have just carried on but he convinced her to stay, they clicked straight away and the rest is history. So not so surprisingly their favourite place in London is Camden. Louise is a Brand Merchandiser for Topshop and Duncan is a musician. His grandfather was the 1st and he says maybe the only Opera singer to come from Trinidad, probably where Duncan gets his love of music. Louise is wearing a T, belt and shoes from Topshop, her skirt is American Apparel and bag is vintage. Duncan says Louise styles him and everything he is wearing is from Topshop, except his hat, which is H&M.<br /><br /><table style="width: auto;"><tbody><tr><td><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/BDU1Zobc6QU09GZ9VU63VA9FgPmIgFtkXsv-pnik548?feat=embedwebsite"><img height="707" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLdL3x8TUvaZk_poDDhAVitFtEnW6UrnVzDnHln1T3Z_RTsLQe_6_d4NjWdpuSKIU9s7am4SRe3vpfjNkNv14WHjWIEoDclqcpu956_WuneyRBofgV7PGZJW7uKMygwZ2JdoCa-LIJfI9T/s800/Helen%252520Nakato%252520sig.jpg" width="500" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11px; text-align: right;">From <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/fashionistable.blogspot.com/Fashionistable?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCMaR78ym_NjXywE&feat=embedwebsite">Fashionistable</a></td></tr></tbody></table>Helen Nakato is the manager of Jigsaw in Westbourne Grove and everything except her jeans is from there.

So, so busy it is near midnight again and i must sleep now so I am fresh(ish) for tomorrow. I got to see 1 show properly and glimpse of another. Masha Ma was the one I had a good view of. Henry Holland I was so far back even on tippy toes (and I am tall) I could only get you guys the one (slightly blurry) image.<br />Masha Ma was a mix of constructed and de-constructed lines.<br />Henry was full of colour and pattern and was a bit rock and roll as always.<br /><br />P.S - Sorry I should explain Paloma Faith is a well known singer here in the UK.

I have been speaking to Yasumi for almost 2 years now. We met online after I photographed her sister, who introduced me to her. OC has a wonderful blog. It is a mix of outfit posts, beauty reviews and generally things that interest her. She has also recently stopped working full-time to spend more time working on her <a href="http://worshipblues.bigcartel.com/products">Emporium</a>, which has a constantly changing stock of all things bright and shiny. A few weeks back I just missed out on a collection of sweetheart impressions she had made in black and red which I really liked so approached her with the idea for an extra impression. You can see the result above, beautiful isn't it. One of the meanings of Dvora is Bee so you can see why this had originally struck me (red and black had featured bee's too).  The blue was to match the colour of a ring my husband had bought me. (Hopefully in the not to distant future there will be another whose meaning create my two 1st names together.) The creation of this sweetheart impression gave us the perfect opportunity to meet for the 1st time. We had a wonderful lunch together at the Nordic Cafe on Golden Sq, where time passed all to quickly. Of course as she looked so good I was not going to let the opportunity pass without photographing her and interviewing her too. So here is a quick Q&A.</span></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">F</span><span style="font-size: small;">: What is your style influence?</span></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"> <span>OC: My style influence is a hodgepodge of confusion.

Sometimes, I laugh out so loud and with such gusto that I wake myself and the husband up. The strange thing is that I never seem to remember what tickled me.</span></span></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span><br /></span></span></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span></span></span></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span>F: Where do you find inspiration for your designs?<br />OC: My jewellery designs are inspired by my daydreams, nightmares and imagination.

She also models a little as well. I could tell this was the case when I asked her to pull her jacket together against the cold and I was treated to the lovely energy of 1st image. Style wise she told me she lives in her leather jacket "its kinda just easy". Brick Lane is her favourite place in London for having a coffee and people watching.

This year Jasper will be showing his Spring/Summer 2012 collection at his own private show, in the Bloomsbury Hotel on the 19th of September at 5pm.<br /><br />Q&A<br />Fashionistable: <i>What inspires your work?</i><br />Jasper: The first thing I think about is the female form. At college I was more creative, for creative sake. Working in the fashion industry has taught me more about women, so I now bring all my creativity to the female form. My inspiration for my Spring/Summer 2012 collection is the painting by Frantisek Kupka, called Autour d'un Point.<br /><br />F: <i>As your job doesn't fit into a 9 to 5 schedule, how do you structure your day?</i><br />J: I try to keep balance in my life which can be very difficult. 5 hours sleep is a must. I get up at 6am and am in bed by 12.30am. I destress by cooking, as my partner and I don't get to spend much quality time together so this is am important part of the day. I love and am very passionate about my work, which I am very thankful for so whatever comes my way I will take it. I am working towards a goal and I am lucky to have a very understanding partner. Maybe one day I will have more time.<br /><br />F: <i>Which part of the creative process do you enjoy most and which you you dread?</i><br />J: I enjoy working on every step of the creative process from concept, to illustration, designing, sewing, creating the show and the photography. Also when I create a bespoke piece and the person tries the finished piece on for the first time, this is a good moment. <br />Making the right decision at the right time and doing it fast is what I dread the most. Also presenting the collection, after 4 to 6 months of concentrated work the tension of the unveiling can be a very difficult time. <br />F: <i>It that because of any criticism that may come?</i><br />J: No, no criticism is part of it, I am open to it, open to improvement it can only make me a better person.<br /><br />F: <i>Do you have any tricks to get over designers block?</i><br />J: Yes, to quite simply to stop thinking and just do. Let my hands do the work. Then go back and see. This is the good thing about being creative, good things come out of mistakes, letting go and looking in a different direction.<br /><br />F: <i>Do you have any rituals when you are putting  your collection together?</i><br />J: I tend to lock myself away for a week when I where I immerse myself in the subject. I look at magazines, movies, I feel it. I can look at a blank piece of paper for days, then it starts.<br />On the day I show the collection I get up at 6 am and sit still and visualise the day. Everything. That way when the show is in full swing I am calm as I have seen it already. The team needs me to be calm. There are no superstitions the visualisation gets me calm and sorted.<br /><br />F: I<i>s music an important part of your working day? What are you listening to at the moment? (Jasper smiled when I asked this question....his partner works with music.)</i><br />J: I am listening to Lady GaGa The Edge of Glory. Music to me is quite significant. It is like being on the edge of a cliff about to skydive. It is the decision weather to take the leap or not. Every day I feel like I am on the edge of something amazing.<br /><br />F: Where is your favourite place/city?<br />J: I have been in London 10 years now. My partner and dog (a King Charles) are here. London embraced me and my fashion. I found myself in London, I fell in love in London. In the words of Samuel Johnson "If you are tired of London you're tired of life".<br /><br />F: Who inspires you?<br />J: Although I was brought in the Catholic religion, I am not a good Catholic. I do however believe in the power of prayer. I am aware I have been given something special and am thankful for it. I don't like to preach about the bible but do live by rules set out there, like the commandment  to treat others as you would like to be treated. Not to waste the gifts you have been given. To know you can make a difference. To do good. To face your responsibilities and the knowledge that I am here for a reason.<br />In a fashion sense I look up to Alexander McQueen and Isabella Blow I wish I had that talent and wish one day to have it. It must be balanced at the same time though as I have to be realistic about paying my staff. <br /><br />F: <i>If you weren't doing this, what job could you see yourself having?</i><br />J: There is nothing else I would do. Growing up my parents wanted me to be a doctor. All my other siblings (of which there are 5) are all academics. 2 lawyers, 2 in the medical profession and 1 professor. I did try but am just not good in chemistry or math. I only told my parents about the direction I wanted to take when my course interview came through as I needed them to send me to London. I had to follow my my dreams. I have never seen my parents so happy as I have seen them in the past few years - my fear of not being myself has gone too.<br /><br />F: <i>If you had the chance to do it all again what advice would you give to a younger you?</i><br />J: Be Brave.<br />   Be Strong.<br />   Love yourself more and everything will be alright.<br />  <br />I would like to thank Jasper for giving us an insight into the emotional journey behind the beauty of his work. I am certainly looking forward to September the 19th. More to follow then.<br /><br /><div style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://www.filofax.co.uk/">Filofax</a> Giveaway</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_230172084"> </a> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Remember there are 3 days left to the 2nd <a href="http://www.filofax.co.uk/">Filofax</a> (<a href="http://fashionistable.blogspot.com/2011/08/out-and-aboutproject-filofax-colour_25.html">Brown Chameleon</a>) giveaway draw.
