that's the look and spotlight joint feature - Jenny Schwars AW13 Lookbook

Today I am jointing two features up within one post, unusual I know! 'That's the look' and ' spotlight' features of this blog are being jointed together as I am not just sharing my work with you today but also a new AW13 collection for you all to see.

Just before the Christmas break, I worked on the look book for amazing menswear designer Jenny Schwarz AW13 collection. Jenny's collections always feature pieces that are beautifully cut and tailored. This is a rare quality to find but tailoring has been in Jenny's family for over a decade, and some would say it is in her blood.

Jenny asked me to do the styling on her latest collection and I was delighted as I have really wanted to work with Jenny for along time. The look book was photographed by Michael Furlonger and Bunny Allen did hair and make up. Props and set designer Lorna Kelly, was also brought on board to bring Jenny's visions alive for this shoot.

I have been following Jenny's collections for a few seasons now and I can honesty say that with each collection, she grows as a designer. As I mentioned above, Jenny’s cut of tailoring and attention to detail (a girl after my own heart) is beautiful. It is hard to pick out my favourite pieces within this new collection as I believe that this will truly be the collection to push her work and name out there into the spotlight.

For this collection Jenny was influence by Jesse James and the tailored jackets and trousers worn by him and other horsemen of the era but she still manages to stay true to her signature that she is now creating for herself including leather jackets and coats with sheepskin collars, cashmere jumpers and long johns (which Bunny and I are hoping Jenny will be made in women's sizes so that we can purchase a pair), shirts and panelled trousers.
















Jenny really is a designer to watch! Check out Jenny's website to see previous collections and stockists.

I hope you enjoyed today's post and check back soon to view my 'Behind the Look' feature that will show how we created the look book.
