THE SHORT BLACK BLOCK JACKET FROM NICOLASSI
Nicolassi has become such a great “friend” I was able to immerse myself in. I have always loved my own clothes to look different and unique and since my early twenties had been interested in sculpting, designing and making different clothes that most certainly wasn’t like every mainstream clothing line or look you could find literally everywhere. Sincere learning new garment construction and pattern design skills, and having a keen eye on how a garment might be put together when I’m inspired by something on Pinterest, I’ve been able to make a stunning collection called proudly The Nicolassi Brand, for the exclusive use of Loci Photography’s shoots, and it’s proving to be so successful.
I am happy to have had boudoir become my preferred niche over the years, and working with so many women I have seen and learned a few things. In general life, but especially within the time spent with you as their booked photographer, they definitely want to feel empowered and strong, and shapes created with the Nicolassi range are all made to have any woman wearing one of its garments feel like we’re power dressing them.
The shapes created make for amazing lines that photograph well, and I’m inspired anew with everything we get to style together in the studio.
This lovely jacket seems to be a very cool little success story, where it consists of only a few panels, and two detachable shoulder panels, which makes for a great addition to the studio.
The bodice stays the same black leather, and its shoulders are interchangeable….which makes for a fun shoot, each set of images different to the previous ones. This bodice has both a short- and longer fringe set as well. This one has magnificent, glossy fur, which looks awesome on camera, if I may say it so bluntly, pure awesome.
The Nicolassi Brand clothing range will only be used with the Loci Photography booked sessions in the Pretoria studio, where we’ll create magic together with your shoot and a strong shaped garment to accompany that. The short black block jacket from Nicolassi provides a lot of options for strong and beautiful image sets.
