Girls, Geeks, Freaks - NYC Comic Con 2012

With over 100,000 attending, NYC's Comic Con this weekend attracted the good, the bad, the hot and the plain old freaky to the island of Manhattan. 
Our mission? Finding the very best and worst characters in the Big Apple!

The four day event was a claustraphobic morass of fans who descended on the Javits Center to meet their heros like Carrie Fischer (Princess Leia), Ian Mcdiarmid (Emeror Palpatine), Stan Lee, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy). Panel highlights included “The Walking Dead” creator, Robert Kirkman on stage along with executive producer Gale Anne Hurd and series stars, Andrew Lincoln who plays Rick. 

However the best characters were the ones made by fans, With self-made characters like Diabetes Man,  we have sorted store-bought costume chaff from weird-and-wonderful grain.

Fashion Week in Sydney

The runway was lit up this week thanks to the gorgeous fashion of Ilse Couture; sexy sunshine pieces perfect for the luxury resort market. Imagine sipping a succulent beverage by Poolbar or over at Vegas' Wet Republic. These are the perfect threads to wear! Inspired by the designer's own travel adventures, from St Tropez to South Beach you are well wrapped in the most magical colour spectrum of Gauguin's Paintings. 

The fashion show was enchanting; an endearing display of falling Cherry Blossoms adorned the runway, as models from Platform and Chadwicks graced the interior of Carriageworks with Ilse's Spring/Summer collection for 2013. Delightful burnt oranges, cobalt blues, stone greys and crisp whites featured predominantly, with such light silks and chiffon-looking gowns to delight the eye. 

I was shooting from the front row as a hybrid media observer and guest; I particularly love these angles which make a nice change from the usual media gallery which shoots straight down the runway. This angle gives a particular perspective and depth which tells a story of motion and magic which can only compliment the dress design. 

The particular model Shannon (above) graced the floor with poise and a most delightful ethereal charm. It was a wonderful show with angelic white lighting and memorable tunes featuring the likes of Lykke Li.
