Vintage Style Photo Shoot...

ELISHA FRANCIS jewellery is all about classic style and elegant beauty, so when photographer Simon Richardson showed me a photo of the model Bertha Tanaem, I knew exactly how I wanted to style the shoot.

The thing I love most about vintage dresses is that you never know when you will come across the OMG I have to have it dress!  My OMG moment came very unexpectedly at the 2012 Lovebox Festival in Victoria Park. On the quest to find something to eat I stumbled across the vintage tent packed full of vintage treasures. 

The first item I bought was  a 1920s style long peach lace dress which I knew would look amazing against Bertha's skin tone.  I teamed it up with Pearl jewellery from my Bridal Collection, coming soon to www.elishafrancis.com

The Second look that Bertha wore was the second item I bought at the  Lovebox Festival which was a black lace dress with a V-shaped neckline perfect for accessorising with a statement necklace.
The Parisian stall holder has a shop located at 65 Chatsworth Road London E5 called Thea Vintage.

The third look was a more elegant outfit, Bertha wore a vintage style dress from ASOS, with pearl and black jewellery from my Contrast Collection

 The fourth and final look was more conservative, brought together with my Nan's hat believe it or not!

So elegant...

can't wait to show you the final pics...
