D’Arcy’s “Pink Dream” Photoshoot

pd6

On Super Bowl Sunday, when most people were cheering on their favorite football team, D’Arcy was styling hair in an exciting editorial photoshoot!!

The tour de force driving this opporunity is an emerging fashion designer named, Bo Choi. She received her MFA Fiber from the University of Washington and now teaches fashion design. Almost the entire fashion line in the shoot was constructed from plastic grocery bags. The central theme of the shoot was,”Pink Dream.” Bo was very detailed and organized with her vision and aided us by storyboarding some of the practice shoots for us.

Bo instructed the photographer, models, makeup artist and D’Arcy this shoot would be a representation of her first arrival in America from Korea as a young child. The two Asian models were to signify her experiences and were to evoke a simple, naive, young and modern version of the “young Bo Choi.” The other two Caucasian models were to be,”the mean girls on the playground,” and would evoke a prissy or evil sensibility.

Bo gave me some guidance on what she envisioned for the hair but left it up to me to use those ideas as inspiration for my own creativity. Here are some of my faves!
