FIRST EDITION IS PRINTED...

Just a little sneaky peek at the first box to arrive of the look books- very exciting.

Sorry about the blurry pic, taken on BB.

Keep submitting work; we are already starting to collect work for the second edition and as every one is graduating and finishing up projects i'm sure everyones got exciting work to share and get EXPOSED!

One more thing- don't forget to spread the word. The more people involved the better!

SPEED DIAL> Rosie Beard

Rosie is a graduate of Fashion Illustration at London College of Fashion. Her way is to go through more traditional techniques of etching, quilting and embroidery. Heavily influenced by the works of Egon Schiele, Aubrey Beardsley and Toulouse Lautrec as well as 18th century fashion and style. They seem to have such a personal unique style, eye catching!

SPEED DIAL - Hannah Robson

Hannah Robson - Fashion Stylist and Photographer

Hannah studied Fashion with Photography at Southampton Solent University. Here are a few words that describe her motive with these stunning photographs on the subject of females feeling pressured by the fashion industry.

"I wanted to be able to photograph females that have body issues and suffer with low self-esteem. All of the photographs that are featured in my book are tasteful nudes that showcase beautiful bodies that are natural and textured without the need for air-brushing."

WHY THE TITLES?

Dial has a new angle to help share all the information in a clear way!

This is what the titles mean at the beginning of every post :

Speed Dial> : These are the Fashion Promoters- the reason fashion dial exists.

Save to Contact> : These are the Fashion Designers that we still want to share on Dial as of course they will be interesting to collaborate

Re- Dial> : These are the already established and talented people within the fashion industry that we here at Dial think we should all be looking up to.

Enjoy- and of course remember if you want to know any more information about people on the facebook page or on here then email us: promoteme@fashiondial.com

CHRIS PRESTON- STYLIST

Currently in his third year of a styling and promotion degree, Chris has concentrated his efforts firmly into getting himself involved with the active fashion industry rather than hiding in his warm student cocoon. Work experience and freelance work at various mens magazines and assisting the likes of Frank Strachan and Luke Day is putting Chris in a good position for when his student card gets left behind.

Chris is currently working on a 'Manalog' (magazine/catalog) so we'll hopefully see some more shoots and articles from that soon!

FASHION DIAL HAS STICKERS

Please excuse the image quality taken on my bb

In an attempt to get more people on board with Dial ( ---because we all know it needs to take over the world ;) ---) I have had stickers made.

I will be out an about in town (London) handing them out and spreading the Fashion Dial love. So if you see me be sure to say hi.

Also please be telling any friends about Dial if they are working, studying or recent graduates in any of the promotion field.

SESSY WATKINS - STYLING

Sessy Watkins- Stylist and Research Queen

Sessy's images all come from an extremely in depth place, very personal and sometimes controversial. In my opinion the more personal styling can be the better. The point of conveying a story, and telling it with clothes that understand that. Sessy does this- especially in one of her most recent shoot (the last image). Hopefully we will see more of this shoot later as she currently working on a piece involving decay, death and animals.

Again.. contact me if you want to see anymore or to get in touch with Sessy.
