Circus - A step too far?

The fashion industry is a funny thing isn't it. I don't know how trends start really, but it kinna annoys me how something comes up and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. I don't really know, either I am subconsciously being manipulated by the media (most likely) to like a certain style, or I have some amazing foresight into the whole trend spotting ting (prob less likely).

So last year I saw this wee clown puppet when I was in Europe. It was Picasso-blue period-esque with a cool ruff and a wee jump suit. Proper clown-age! So I grew a slight obsession with this clown and his clothes and started designing clothes and styling photo shoots based on this circus stuff....




Jump to AW '08 and every chump and his monkey has circus themed things. Britney Spears album 'Circus', Take that album 'The circus', Pink's Album 'Funhouse'. Eh...WIT?!? Why so many!!! And then to topshop...



How does this happen?

Heather New York 2007

I've finally gotten around to processing some of the photos I did in New York last Fall (How very US of me). These are from a shoot I did for a fashion assignment, with my Pentax and developed some on site and some in the UK. I uploaded them all to Flickr and these are just some outtakes.

Enjoy. (Sorry its taken me so long Heather!).
