Today we launch my collab with & Other Stories at Steven Alan online and in their La Brea and Nolita stores. It is my second time collaborating with this cool Swedish brand. I was thrilled when &OS enlisted my friends and favorite sisters, Mamie, Grace and Louisa Gummer, to star in the campaign, which was shot by legendary photographer Stephen Shore. The shoot took place a few months ago at my home and at CVHQ, and I wanted to give you a behind the scenes look at our day in front of the camera. Here's me in my dressing room before the shoot with one of my favorite pieces - white perf cinch sack - it'll be so cute for summer. It was so funny to see this team of professionals come in and take over the house - the living room was made into hair and make-up central. My little Paco is like me in that he loves having people around - the more the merrier. Me before hair got tamed. Sitting in the chair with a huge production going on all around me and Mamie, Grace and Louisa and Stephen Shore in my house I just have to take a moment to realize what's happening. Tom Ford lipstick anyone?? Whoa. Dreamzone. I love this little cross body guy sitting on my porch waiting for his close up. I love this shot of Louisa and Grace in my studio parking lot during a lull in the shoot. Louisa is carrying a bag inspired by one of my very first designs - only I made it out of black ripstop. It was fun to recreate it in perforated leather Shop a selection of the collection now at Steven Alan La Brea and Nolita stores and StevenAlan.com. And you'll find the entire collection (including amazing loafers) at & Other Stories and Stories.com starting next Thursday, March 5! (Also, we'll post all the Stephen Shore images of the girls with the collection next week too!) xcv
