wednesday. weekend update

This past weekend, I helped my dear friend, Danielle, with a commercial shoot for Rent.com. We had to dress 35 mannequins in 50s galore. It's not as easy as it sounds. 
After three different trips to thrift stores and raiding our closets to no end, we were able to fashion together a stellar wardrobe. The mannequins, however, were a completely different story. 


They were so obnoxiously heavy and awkwardly set-up, it was nearly impossible to get clothes on them, let alone nice primped 50s wear. They were also as fragile as glass. 







kids were by far the creepiest
 
We had a few casualties during transportation and set-up/tear down, but in the end, it was a sight worth seeing.
We worked the guys from Conscious Minds (who made this commercial),  so I'm super excited to see how this one is going to turn out.
