I am almost fainting with envy on learning that Hepwright’s friend and client Jennifer Anyan will be jetting out to Rome where she is styling for a shoot at the Sorelle Fontana Foundation.

The thaw may be on its way, but the temperature is still way too low to think about taking your vest off. It’s all about layers, people. And what nice layers than these? I could not resist taking a few wintery pieces out and taking these photographs amidst the deep and crisp and even. The 50% Sale [...]

If “vintage” is 20 years ago – then in January 2010 the 1990’s joins our gang! Are you ready to play with Lycra? Grunge? Combat trousers? Sportswear?

Today I found a home for the head shot of my esteemed father which has been floating around the studio for a while. Angus (for it is he) was a producer/director at Southern/Meridian television in the 60s/70s – hence he had his mugshot taken several times. Those glasses are just fab. He is still a snappy dresser [...]
