DEAN SHOOTS FOR LEVI’S VINTAGE COLLECTION!
For Winter 2007 A fantastic thought; facsimiles of garments worn from the 1900’s
to 1960’s, recreated stitch by stitch into a true resemblance
of these classic clothes. These images are a light hearted homage
to the photographers of the FSA (Farm Security Administration) such
as Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange, Paul Strand and of course the
body of work by Richard Avedon known as ‘In the American
West’.
The shoot was produced in West London as opposed to the wind swept plains of the USA but with, cleaver lighting, amazing casting and a little ‘roughing-up’ of the subjects this series of images reflect a time where blood sweat and tears meant not only survival but pride, passion and honesty.
