Summer of Love

May 23, 2008 by Morgan Send to a Friend Send to a Friend

What do you get when you cross the brothers Thornley (of U.S. Royalty - and self-styled, no less) with four beautiful girls and a whole lot of feathers and tulle? Our unapolagetically large “Summer of Love” fashion spread, of course. Spring’s sheer trend combines magically with all things bohemian; bursts of print and leather or metal accessories will keep even the floatiest of outfits firmly on the ground. We gleaned inspiration everywhere from Kime Buzzelli’s The Moldy Doily to Citizen’s Band and the Manson girls, so please! Get excited for summer frolicking, and enjoy:

The guys in US Royalty actually look like a band. I wish I could rock a huge beard like that.

Nice work as always from all involved. I am split between Alexandra looking up with that great headpiece or the ring around the rosey shot. Killer.

Morgan Says:

headpieces = posterboard, marker, and leather from the craft store, and the other ones are headbands, roses, and ribbons!

i didn’t ask how they were made
or what they were made of
that’s previous obvious

i like the person who does them and the style
i’m sure if i tried to make them, they wouldn’t come out that well

Kelsi Says:

i would sure like to see a d.i.y. of the headpieces, especially the feathered one. like with a pattern of the feathers. that would be excellent.
