My worked was scoped by Manchester Fashion Network

…Banners, flyers, 6 sheets, posters etc… my work was found all over the city. 
My Images were used by Manchester Fashion Network to promote their Vintage Threads market.   Here are images of the promotional material displaying my work. 
It was excited to see my work on display, it all seemed a bit surreal.   I had to laugh when I saw a girl holding one of my signs in the city centre.

A series from my ‘Steampendous’ photo story was also exhibited at the fair.

The vintage market was really good, i met a great lady who runs a store ‘Clothing With a Conscience.’ in Afflecks palace.  She stocks some amazing ‘recycled’ clothing lines.  I’m really into this ethical, eco,and up-cylced fashion movement.

Adnan - Haute couture Genius

I went to put up my styling shoot in Manchester’s Triangle today, as part of MFN’s Vintage Threads market.   I wandered downstairs to browse the stalls, and stumbled upon this jaw dropping exhibition.   There is no sign outside the shop, I thought it was a studio.  
Everything in here is stunning.   The designer creates Haute-Couture looking pieces all from recycled fabrics.  There are pieces ranging from mashed- up patchwork jeans and purses, to stunning theatrical gowns all made from recycled materials.    One gown was completely crocheted Sainsbury’s bags. 
There is not only fashion pieces, there are walls that resemble Haute Couture textile canvases, and intricately folded paper swans… etc..
Adnan the designer has been working in the studio for 6 months, the amount of work produced was incredible and beautiful.   This lovely and talented guy will definatey be making millions soon.   If you have a chance, I suggest you go have a look.   110% worth your while!
