Shooting for Nixi Killick was a pleasure as expected - I was given the creative reigns again for hair and makeup, and arrived to a bubbly Nixi and Denver hoarding treasure chests full of incredible accessories and garments. Augmented reality activated as is Nixi’s growing trademark, this capsule collection Lightning Sunrise features neon-electric mismatched animal prints with cutout panels in always-comfy silhouettes. I swear, something magical happens when you put on a NXK outfit - you can feel your inner spirit come alive. Thank you to the awesome Tai and Fil for being so fun to work with as well! I loved living out my technicolour cyberpunk goddess dreams.
NIXI KILLICK - SUGAR WONDERLAND
To say this shoot was a long time coming is a MASSIVE understatement. I’ve been a huge fan of Nixi’s work for years now, and I remember being particularly wowed by the strangely perfect way her colour palettes enmeshed with shape and pattern. The longer you look at a Nixi Killick design, the more you begin to see - like a wearable Magic Eye book.
The interactivity is taken a step further in her most recent collection Cryptic Frequency, with the implementation of augmented reality tech. In collaboration with AR app EyeJack, garments feature imagery that trigger in-app animations and sound design - easter eggs adding a whole new dimension to style.
Fashion just became more immersive than ever.
