Happy Holidays and a really HAPPY new year!!!

Hi everyone!!
I hope that all have had a safe and wonderful holiday season! As the new year is approaching (a little too quickly) I wanted to share a few things that Ghinda is looking forward too!
We will be producing a bridesmaids collection! Our bridesmaids collection will be completely different from a tradition bridesmaids collection! We are so excited to share our thoughts and inspirations with you. We are building a rather large inventory of eclectic and incredibly unique fabrics for our bridesmaids!! We will bring you more details soon!

We are beginning to create an accessories line! We are creating hand made belts and head pieces!!! These pieces will have a very bohemian and free feel to them just like our bridesmaids collection! We will offer custom pieces as well! We love our Swarovski bling, raw silk, and feathers!!! I can't wait to show you our pieces!!!!
Here are a few photos we have been enjoying as we get into the spirit of bridesmaids and accessories!!!

A Rare Gem

Just a quick post to show you some GORGEOUS photos we took at a photo shoot for one of our very talented designers!!!

This gown is our take on a princess gown...we love the hand work in the lines of the bodice. Each fragmented pattern piece has been meticulously hand sewn together to create a beautiful  fresh look! Just to add a little more glamour to Rubi, we gave her a plunging sweetheart neckline. So much beauty in one gown!!!

Photo Shooting :)

Hi All!
As Thanksgiving is approaching I thought it would be neat to outline some of the amazing people who have helped Ghinda create so many beautiful photo shoots!!! The creation of a photo shoot takes many people all syncing at the same time. A lot of the syncing starts with the inspirations we find and share with each other.
As inspirations are pulled together and shot around via text and email each person's perspective adds to the depth of the shoot.
This shoot, in particular, was so neat because each person's perspective played off and enhanced the last person's inspirations! Seeing so many talented and creative people all collaborating to make beautiful moments is a really amazing thing!
Claire of  Rouxby Photography sent this inspirational photo for the feel of our shoot! This photo is called Little Red Riding Hood's Demise by My Modern Metropolis!
We loved intensity of the moment captured!!! The feel of this shot was perfect!

 I love getting our models involved in the narrative and aesthetic of our shoots. I fully believe the models should be very involved in the creation both before and during the shoot! Model's know what they like and how to create specific looks using the tools they are given. I love getting inspiration form the model's perspective because this is often where the emotion of the shoot comes from. All of our models are get to learn the entire story and feel for our shoots.
From our beautiful model Erin~
 These two looks really took both our hair and our makeup ideas and gave them life! Thank you Erin!

Our hair stylist Jenna Burchett sent along some amazing inspirational photos to bring out the forgotten and beautiful structural elements we needed! On the day of the shoot Jenna took each model's hair and styled it to a perfect level of naturally wild chaos. Each model had a very distinctive and singular look, and yet there was absolute cohesion throughout! These were some of Jenna's images!
 The whimsy and structure of these hair styles were EXACTLY what we were looking for!!! The final looks couldn't have been more perfect!



 Our makeup artist Leigh Ann from Make You Llc did an excellent job of pulling all of our inspirations together to give our models the most beath-taking and haunting looks we have ever seen!
 I am so excited to show everyone the final images!!

Here are a few behind the scenes photos from our Instagram to give you a taste of what went on during our shoot!!!


 I was afraid it would be a bit chilly, but the weather held out :)

I can't wait to post the final photos and I really hope you love them!!!
Have a very very happy Thanksgiving!!!

NYFW

New York Fashion Week
is a beautiful display of invention and creativity. It's the culmination of months and months of hard work from the best designers in the world. They come to show their works of art on the runway and inspire the fashion world.
Some of the trends we saw from Spring 2013 are STRIPES, SHEERS, and FLORALS. These themes seemed to carry to almost every designer. Beautiful combinations of soft femininity and strong lines create some of the most gorgeous designs we have seen.
Here are are few shots from our favorite designers via vogue.com.
