A few months ago I lent some garments to Manchester based model agency, Maverick models. They were used for the agencies’ new promo shoot, shot in the south of France as well as the vampire themed fashion show that opened Sheffield fashion week. There is a video of the shoot here and the fashion show here.
A selection of my favourite images from the shoot.

This month I was selected to feature in Bella Morte magazine’s Alt girls issue, available to purchase here. They chose a set of photos I shot a while ago, in Chester with Gareth Hickey. There were a few hundred entries and only 20 girls were featured which makes me feel quite good.
They chose a set of photos I shot a while ago, in Chester with Gareth Hickey and gave me a double page spread, which you can view below.
My favourite image from this set and the one I use for my book is the one below but the feature has definitely make me appreciate the other two a lot more.

Last month I was contacted by singer/song writer Laura Steel who had been invited in as G3 mag‘s November issue guest editor. She was looking for designers for her fashion feature and wanted to focus on independent female designers who are making it on their own which is an idea that really appealed to me.
They ended up using two of my outfits in a double page spread. I think the image and the clothes look great but was slightly disappointed to see that the blurbs for Eustratia (my label) and Andrea Billard had been printed the wrong way round so people who don’t read the the whole thing and realise it sounds wrong are going to end up looking for underwear and visiting a latex site and vice versa.
Edgy designer clothing. Innovative latex fashion. Bespoke commissions.
