Event

Alice McCall transformed the lavish award winning restaurant, Porteno in Surry Hills into a live instillation of models lounging around in chantilly lace and cute rompers. Just think 60/70s, 1999 Galliano, or Opium Den styled sets to go with each outfit. Each look had “Alice” written all over it – it was playful, sensual, and feminine. The presentation felt like a live fashion shoot but minus the luxury of time and space. Basically all the shooters were given about 5 minutes to work with the models within a confined area, whilst the stylish onlookers were right behind us catching all the action. Well you know me, I love the challenge to think quickly on my feet and make the most of any situation to produce images that I am proud to publish. ‘

So here they are and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them. Thank you Electric Collective PR for having me xxx.

Diner en Blanc, a sea of people dressed in all-white popped up at a secret location which was only revealed hours before the event. Around 1,500 guests brought with them their table settings, chairs, cutlery and food and parked themselves at the Waterfront City, Dockland. It was definitely one of the largest pop-events I have ever seen, with free-flowing bottles of Fiji water, boxes of sandwiches and nibbles packed by the Atlantic Group and live entertainment. This concept began 26 years ago in Paris, and in most recent times, everywhere around the world has taken part of this phenomena.

The most memorable part of the night was the waving of their napkins to kick start the dinner, the lighting of the sparkles to end the night; and of-course spotting my favourite white outfits as seen below.

Thank you Vincent of @Your_Ensemble for my snap.
