A little while ago, I had the opportunity to attend and photograph Maiyet ‘s new FW 2014 collection at the Chateau Marmont. Maiyet is a luxury & Eco-friendly fashion brand that supports and seeks world-wide artisans. Because of this unique factor, not only does the brand have intricate textures and designs, but they’ve also managed to create a system where the artisan communities (in places like India, Indonesia, Italy, Kenya, Mongolia, and Peru)  can grow and prosper.

The most beautiful satin dresses and shirts were presented, with a table full of candy-like purses- including an ostrich egg clutch.   I had a great time, had the chance to meet photographer Ellen Von Unwerth and catch up with model friend and editor Natalia Bonifacci . A few of us ended up going to dinner after (it was also our friend Adam‘s birthday). Thank you to Jordanne Crantelle for making this all possible.
