SNEAK PREVIEW OF HON 2012 FALL LOOKBOOK!!!

The HON Fall lookbook would be available in a matter of days... It was shot some weeks back and it was so much fun. LOVING what I do makes it alot easier for me to work on a garment for days just to get a perfect result. This collection was shown at AMFW 2012.

We started by designing and sketching all the looks, then sourcing the right kind of velvet before production started. The bead work, feather stitching, studds and spikes placement and all took a while to get everything in place, but we did.

The shoot started with makeup and hair, trying different pieces on the model etc. Obi Somto provided us with humour, music and dance steps because he kept dancing between takes.  Dude is sooooo funny!
Hope u like>>>

 The intricate beading of this piece took dayssssssssssss, abt 10 days to be exact but its sooo amazing and it shines in the dark.... watch out for this piece on the red carpet soon.
