Models and Art.


I really adore and admire beautiful art. Love this work from David Downtown . His ability to create such unique and stylish artwork of some of the world's most stunning women is amazing. I really enjoy seeing the interpretation of a model's beauty beyond an editorial feature. Aren't the ones of Lily Cole just divine... He is has captured her doll like features and style beautifully. Happy Friday... Which means it's flower markets day tomorrow! xx














The stunning images are by David Downtown from Art-Dept. xx

    completely amazine. these very fluid images, create a flow for the fabric, the movement of the models, really a unique style of giving you that look. happy 4th!
