Right now I'm editing the photos from the Wiksten fall 2008 photo shoot, and I thought I'd share a few. These photos are of the Lena dress. When I found this delicately beautiful silk-screened fabric, I couldn't help but think of my new favorite book, Printing by Hand by Lena Corwin. I haven't quite settled on a date for when I'll put the new collection in the shop, but I'll be posting more news and photos here throughout the week.
It was such a treat to have the gorgeous and talented Jessalyn model for me again. She is now officially the "Wiksten spokesmodel". Emily Moore took the photos, and I couldn't be happier with how things turned out. It was pretty awesome to get to work with such a kind and gifted photographer. Frankly though, I'm just glad we got through this thing in one piece! I won't bore you with the details, but there were a whole lot of obstacles/disasters that almost kept me from getting to this point. Nevertheless it all worked out, and I'm very excited.

love, love, love. i'll be crossing my fingers that i might actually get one of your creations someday!
i just got my issue of Domino yesterday, and saw your feature. you look great, and the room they styled is lovely as well :)
Can we miraculously become best friends by November, so that you can make a dress for me for my birthday?; seeing how I don't have money??? Ha! ;)
What a gorgeous dress, Jenny! I am excited to see the rest of your collection in a few weeks and am hoping you will bring back the gray Ellybeth dress and plaid Tova top from the fall 2008 collection. :-) Congratulations on the Domino feature too! I showed my husband the article last night and said this is the designer who made the gingham tank shirt I live in!
Make that winter 2008 Ellybeth and Tova...
Jenny, you just keep getting better and better. the photos, the styling, the dress... all beautiful. :)
wow, I'm truly blown away by the clothing, styling, and the overall mood of the photos. I'm definitely getting that Toast-y vibe, which is absolutely a good thing! Makes me wish for cooler weather. I'm sure you've had a stressful time getting your collection together, but from the sneak peak, it really looks like your hard work has paid off! Congratulations!
Oh!! Very very cute! And the photos are really beautiful...
the styling is gorgeous jenny. lovely top too, can't wait to see the rest. :D
Oh, Jenny! The dress is beautiful. I cannot wait to see the rest of the collection.
It's wonderful:) and I love love love the photos.
I had to smile when I saw the fabric -I actually bought some of this recently for little girl things...:)
seems like we're always doing that:)
xo
love it want it love it want it.... This is just beautiful, but at the speed with which things fly out of the shop I think I'll never own a Wiksten piece again :(
I desperately try to purchase a Wiksten piece every time something is placed in the shop - to no avail. I have hopes for fall! Gorgeous dress.
What a beautiful sneak peek of your fall collection. Those photographs are beautiful, and I love the Lena dress. I love Jessalyn as a brunette, too! I'm so glad you made it through.
Ahhhhh! I love that dress!
I really like your designs ... and your blog is very inspiring.
Greetings from Munich Germany Ute.
These are so gorgeous! I love the mood of the photos. And the garments... absolutely stunning! I love your design aesthetic. :)
SO beautiful. I love your photos and can't wait to try and order a Lena dress when your shop goes up!
Oh my.. you are amazing Jenny! I love this dress, and I love all the pictures as well! So beautiful.
Stunning! I love this dress so, so much - and am so excited for your new collection! Perhaps this time I can scrape together enough pennies to treat myself!
Wow! the styling is great and the dress is amazing! (saw it on lena corwin's blog and fell in love)
That dress is so my style!
So very beautiful.
Lovely Blog by the way.
Greetings from Sweden.
