JMD on the Cover of Sideview Magazine

After shooting with the amazing milliner Louis Mariette last November, finally out in its quarterly magazine is the lovely couture creator himself, Louis wearing a custome made Jeffrey Michael Design piece on the cover.

Made to match his supple brown hues of eyes skin and hair, this piece was conceived after an exciting meeting with the editors of Sideview magazine last fashion week between sips of coffee after shows at the ON/OFF venue at Chancery Lane.

Visualized for the cover, the artist Jeffrey Michael created the piece using his typical organic and found materials to create this soft, cozy shoulder zip bolero. The piece soft lights through its dense organic material to illuminate soft brown lighting over its wearing party.

Made to be slightly asymetrical and to be worn open on the cover, Louis made this piece come to life. Shot by the amazing Karl Lake, and brought to life in the garden area outside Louis's studio space, we spent the day with him getting the story of our lifetime from a true gentleman. Thanks to the Sideview team and luscious editor Dumebi !!!!

London Fashion Week & JMD

A new season of fashion with Jeffrey Michael Design presented in many new and exciting ways. Several amazing contacts have been made for new projects with fantastic new magazines and online publications, as well as the royalty of British Pop. JMD was a contributing editor during fashion week for the ongoing tweeting and response to all the fashion shows seen by LABB magazine (current issue below) and all of its emerging artists, and had an opportunity to view new and exciting designers and fashion shows this season at the ON/OFF venue, and with Vauxhall Fashion Scout. JMD seen with LABB magazine at the Lako Bukia show above enjoying the fierce and flowing creations of a truly inspiring and talented creator.

Some of the exciting new upcoming projects brought from meetings at the fashion runways of London Fashion Week include negotiations for a second piece with Diana Vickers, who this month is on the cover of Random Magazine wearing a couture one of a kind lightup paper dress by JMD (below, at newstands NOW ! ), and with Shingai Shoniwa of the Noisettes who will be soon wearing her own one of a kind creation made specifically created for her persona.

Other collaborations include a featured piece on the cover of Sideview Magazine on their exciting yet to be announced covermodel (who I know and am so excited to be working with!), and a cover spot on the upcoming Womens Issue of LABB magazine (more info as able to be printed out to the world). Finally a new spread in Idol Magazine with a custom made piece specifically for the magazine, and negotiations to begin with the luscious BLOW magazine.

During fashion week JMD was also contacted by TOP10 Magazine to contribute his piece to an exciting article about "Young Fashion Week" in which Daria Shopovalova (above) , famous model, presentor, and magazine editor, wore and glamorously displayed upon herself the couture showpiece that is the "bauble dress". http://top10.ua/fashion/2010/09/29/young-fashion-week (third picture in) and styled by the ever amazing Sofia Shershunovich (who has her own amazing blog - click here)
