Chic is back

May 21, 2014Karen Woo Leave a Comment

Jess Dempsey from What Would Karl Do is finally back on the fashion scene (although she never really left!) after giving birth to her second beautiful baby boy. She is a mummy machine with a “I can do” attitude. Her mind is constantly churning out street style ideas, texting me any wardrobe and sponsor updates, pulling out looks and of-course itching to get back in front of the camera. Her energy and excitement just rubs off on me, so naturally we make a pretty awesome team. Welcome back Jess!

MBFWA2014 Leroy Nguyen: The Blue Rose

May 20, 2014Karen Woo Leave a Comment

Leroy Nguyen was inspired by the fairytale of the blue rose from Pan’s Labyrinth – the impossible quest to attain immortality. Leroy’s range and the runway show itself was about taking us on a journey of structured garments (yet sexy and slick), one toned looks and then gradually introducing subtle prints to exaggerated prints and then ending it with beautiful colour blocking. What’s your favourite?

It was Leroy Nguyen’s first solo runway show at MBFWA2014, so it was a huge privilege to capture the excitement and talent that went behind the scenes. It was all about femininity, wet hair look, dusty soft make-up, beautiful colour blocking, subtle prints to structured garments, white flat sandals and even blue roses!

A Day in a life of a MBFWA Street Style Photographer

May 8, 2014Karen Woo Leave a Comment

I had the pleasure of befriending, sharing food and working alongside with such a friendly, talented and hard working bunch of artists – fashion bloggers and street style photographers at MBFWA. We were always on the go, on guard to snap up the next fashion forward person; sometimes hidden and crouching in the most awkward positions; squeezed out of the media pit; and running on empty stomaches. Thankfully I had my best friends, a pair of Adidas sneakers and “What Would Karl Do” tee to keep me comfy and cool.

Fashion Photographer – Mitch Doueihy

One of the things I love about what I do is the people I get to meet and strike up a conversation with. I remember stopping Mitch in his tracks (just as he finished up working at MBFWA) and asked if I could photograph his quirky street style. His combination of polka dot sweater and socks with red tartan pants and navy blazer was definitely screaming my attention, and for a moment I thought I was in Vienna! A few minutes into directing him in front of the gorgeous soft backlight, I learnt that he was also a Fashion Photographer!
