STORY: I needed a wedding dress! It was a few days before the big day and I was obviously not in the market for a traditional gown, not even close. I found this in a posh consignment store and just grabbed it: this'll do, I thought. I was working flat out at the time--I'm a food stylist--and didn't have time to mess about. Partly because of our work schedules, we hadn't done all the wedding nonsense, including not hiring a photographer. So how did this shot turn out so great, you may ask? One Annie Leibovitz happened to be working in the adjoining studio and my fiance-now-ex-husband used to be one of her assistants. So she stepped in, offered to take our portrait, and here you go. Unfortunately that fancy shoot didn't make the marriage work. So, you win: take my dress! It looks great with the ivory moleskin (original) Helmut Lang jacket in a separate listing here.More to see here...
