Earlier this year Bunch magazine commissioned local photographer Elizabeth Rudge and I to put together a shoot based on Northwest designers. I connected with almost twenty independent fashion brands in the Seattle-Portland-Vancouver sector (okay, and New York, too—I cheated and included the formerly Seattle-based Logan Neitzel) and put together this gothic take on regional style.
