Lucas_Ossendrijver at Lanvin by The Selby

Sometimes I think that fashion is an evil beast. Why would anyone want to work in/patronise it when you hear stories of young manipulated girls, predatory photographers, excess consumption, unthinking slaves to the next trend etc etc etc. But then I see photos like these, the latest post by The Selby, and I remember why. These photographs capture everything that is great about fashion. I love seeing the team of people who work with these amazing materials and push fashion forward, their amazing studio and Ossendrijver, who The Selby says is "super down to earth gentle guy". I could go on, but I will let the images do the talking. See the whole thing here.
