Have had it in my hands already, can only say brilliant idea!

[will6er]

@Steve This is awesome

[ZackB]

@Steve such a great idea, can’t wait to get one.

[Jett129]

Agree with @Chap an absolutely brilliant idea. Any possible backstory as to how it came about?

[Giles]

Yeah, @Steve is creative

[Steve]

@Jett129 I normally spend a decent amount of time just looking at the collection before actually doing any design, trying to get a feel of what's in it - sometimes it feels urban, or outdoor, or military etc etc. This one didnt have a specific feel, but what I did get was that while there was a lot of different pieces, they all worked together.

So that was the basis of the idea, I then start scamping ideas on paper or I see will something out and about that triggers an idea.

This idea was triggered seeing a kids mix and match book in a book shop, it was then the idea all linked together.

Then its a case once you get the idea, how to put it together - what model(s) to use, what backdrop, what is the best paper stock (the cover is very heavy, to hold it all together) and how to set up the photoshop file so every photo s roughly in the same position

I really love the lookbook, but unlikely to be making a purchase until S/S 26. Doh! Probably not worth the shipping cost on its own.

[Jett129]

@Steve Thank you so much for the response. Glad it wasn’t one of those if I tell you I have to kill you kind of things. Makes it even cooler for me.

[Twistlock]

This is fun @Steve.

I need to hold off on my consumerism for a bit, so bummed I don't have the book in my mitts. It's like classy/stylish adult Garanimals w/out the guardrails.

Close your eyes.
Headphones on (not too loud).
Take a break from the world.
And enjoy a snippet of our life in the workshop.
