Photography by Liam Warwick.
I was most bemused by the London College of Fashion’s decision to create an exhibition labelled with nothing but numbers. So, lacking the requisite crib sheet I did what I always do: took photos of stuff I liked with the number to check up who was who later on. But then I got spotted by the security guards who made it their business to chase me around the basement at Victoria House. Which means that I didn’t manage to grab shots of everything I liked… and I hope I’ve got my credits right. The LCF Showtime website is hellishly difficult to navigate…. Here’s the best fashion photography from LCF this year.
Ellie Sullivan chose colour themes for her very striking fashion portraits. It worked well.
Akil Verma’s dapper man with cigar made for an interesting image.
I thought that Ted Mendez‘ portraits of young kids by night were particularly arresting.
As were Liam Warwick’s dreamy portraits of a young gentlemen, porcelain perfect against a fuzzy backdrop of foliage.
Emma Gibney’s black and white portraits kept things simple to good effect.
I was very drawn to Beinta A Torkilsheyggi’s surreal fashion portrait with fish. It’s hard to do this kind of thing well but she’s managed to create something fresh and intriguing.
Yuirim Roh’s classic portraits took a tribal turn to great effect.
Next up: best of Fashion Illustration…
