a series of my work shot by the ever incredible @lilyvayle on medium format film 🎥 i’d been wanting to sculpt florals into pieces to complement seasonal attire for so long & finally sent it with this shoot 🌾
i’d love to hear ideas on what to call the pieces on the body outside of “wearables” or “floral tattoos.” and omg making the nails was maybe the most fun part?! now i just want to go to a fancy dinner & wear floral nails (if anyone has an event or shoot coming up where they’d like something similar, i’d loveee to make more!)
big thank u to the team behind this all coming together 🫶🏼

Girl with the Delphinium Earring
~
Made with the utmost love & respect for this woman. She’s seen it all, been through it all, and always emerges gracefully, fiercely from it all. The strongest, loveliest soul. “Vibrant” is the first word that comes to mind when I think about how to describe Michelle, and I hope this headdress encapsulates that. To Michelle — THANKU for always believing in me from day one. An honor and full circle moment to see you wearing the delphinium earrings from my venture into floral jewelry years ago paired with the headdress that you wear so well. Endless love for you, @mycheaxiong . 🤍
