CLEO project

Commissioned project from CLEO magazine
Actually my sister needed help on one of her articles, she didn't want to use photographed clothes and so she felt illustration would look more interesting.
Does the illustration makes the article look interesting, what do you think? :p

SUNSILK co-creation TVC

The sketches
The brief was to do a winter look for a summer ambiance :p
So it had to be very light in terms of fabric and silhouette, had to be somehow breezy but look like it's almost winter.
And so came the simple light dress with the mini open front ruffled trench.
Overall look was feminine.



All the extras had to wear winter clothing too, poor them cause it was quite hot on shoot day.

The boys from Nidji, they're very particular about how they look, but nice to work with.
By the end of the shoot, they told me they liked the look :)

The girls as groupies hehehe...

Cussons TVC

This was my first time doing 'pregnant' styling with fake boobies and tummy hahaha...
I was pretty much stressed out, trying to get the right tummy dummy, at the end I didn't have enough time to develop a new latex tummy, so David managed to borrow the tummy from a client. Thank God! Phew..
Another thing that stressed me out was the talent, Dinda, very beautiful but also very thin and small. I have to make her look 'full', fake tummy and boobies were just not enough, plus they prefer the dresses to be tight fitting a.k.a body hugging.

So these are the sketches, I need to hid her thin arms and somehow add more 'volume' to her.

This is the beautiful 'expecting mother' Dinda hehehe... well, the dress didn't exactly made her look 'bigger' but it did hid her thin arms and shoulder :) oh! I also need to add fake 'bums' hahaha!!
On this job, Dinda got new tummy, boobies and bums :D


Glam hot mama.

And these are the fabulous miss Malek the art director and miss Di Yee the director.

Soy Joy TVC 'office' part 2

Cinderella, I didn't want to have those balloon sleeves, coz they look so much like Disney, but apparently client insisted on having them.

Sleeping Beauty was pretty much easy, found the right fabric, stretch magenta velvet, just like what I wanted :)

Soy Joy TVC 'office' part 1

I had a really good time doing this job :D
It was very tiring plus it's 3 days shoot and I had another shoot just one day apart from this shoot.
But it's all worth the pain and the energy.
5 princess look from 5 fairytales, I had to re-create 5 princess to look different from Disney's princess (coz of copyright matters), but they still had to look like all those well known Disney princess hahaha! Was quite a challenge but very fun to do :D
Here are the sketches.





My personal favorite is the Mermaid and Snow White outfit :)



Detailing on Ariels costume
first progress
second progress
final look.
I decided to loose the large sea star in the middle coz it kept breaking apart and change it to small ones.




I particularly like the large lace collar on Snow white, that was the hardest part, how to make it stand up and not falling when she moves.

The fitting, she was funny, still pretty even though without make up and messy hair hahaha...

The final result.
