This week I had the pleasure to do the styling for the first iCandy calendar shoot, alongside the other half of the Creative Expressions team, Jodie, who was the hair and make up stylist.
The venue was the exclusive club Amika-London which boasts elegant decor with chandeliers and luxurious settings.
The professional photographer, the amazing Joby Rawlins, whose work has been featured in Zoo and Scarlet magazine and who has worked with the likes of Lauren Pope and Jakki Degg.
The winning models were blonde bombshell Genna Fox and red head vixen Siobhan Caroline who both worked three outfits each.
The first outfit I put together for Genna was a fun, fresh and funky look. She wore black and white stripy knickers with a white vest which read “I’ve got a killer pussy”. I accessorised it with bright red shoes, bangles and even threw in some red heart glasses for a few playful shots.
The second look we went for was a sexy, boudoir look. Genna wore a red and black lace underwear set with stockings and suspenders. It looked very seductive in a sophisticated Dita Von Teese way. HOTT!!!
The third look for Genna, and last but by no means least, was a rock chick look. She wore black lace bra and knickers with a denim waistcoat and fingerless black gloves with chunky black studded jewellery and studded belt.
Genna commented “The shoot day was fantastic! I had such an amazing time! The iCandy team were so lovely and made the day really special for us two winning models. The stylist and hair and make up team were simply fab, we had a huge amount of great outfits to choose from and the hair and make up to match, they made us look amazing for the shots! As for Joby Rawlins, well what can I say, a super talented photographer, was such a privilege to work with him! I had the best time on the shoot! Wish I could do it all again tomorrow… I can’t wait to see the photos! Genna”.
The first look I put together for Siobhan was a big white fur jacket and black bodice which was emblazoned with Swarovski crystals which I made myself under my “St Tailia Couture” bespoke designer label. This was a kind of dynasty look, sophisticated but still so very sexy.
The second look for Siobhan was a rough and ready worker look. I ripped up some denim hot pants to make them into very very hot pants and teamed them with a studded belt. I layered two dungaree style vests which I cut so short you could just see the bottom of her boobies popping out. Paired with cowboy style boots this look was definitely enough to get wolf whistled at.
And again third and last, but not least, was a sexy boudoir style look with a white lace underwear set dripping in tons of gorgeous pearls.
I had an amazing day on the shoot with all the crew, the girls were outstanding and I was hugely impressed with Joby’s work. Having modelled myself I noticed how brilliant Joby is with giving direction and his creative eye for good backdrops and settings. He was great and easy to work with.
The highlight of the day was that I too had a chance to jump in front of the lens and do my stuff wearing one of the iCandy vests. It has been a little while since I’ve done a shoot as I have been concentrating on other aspects of my professional life but it was enlightening to learn that ‘I still got it’ and I really can’t wait to see all the images from the shoot.
There will be a shoot every month as each month a new girl is crowned iCandy calendar girl of the month to win a shoot and the opportunity to be featured in the iCandy calendar 2012. So if you fancy your chances upload your pictures to the iCandy website and get all your friends and family to vote for you. Good luck ladies and I look forward to meeting and styling the winners at one of the shoots in the future.
