We Are Metal Heads! / Fashion Series Magazine + Dylan Dias!

Our good friends over at Fashion Series Magazine continue to produce quality coverage and tasteful publications of rich, Canadian talent every month! Providing readers with an actual, true insight into the industry; Fashion Series is devoted to the bustling and vibrant growing community of Toronto-centric Fashion Talent - from models to moguls in almost every field. Real interviews, real words, and real representation; and not to mention some fabulous Fashion! I am an enormous believer in providing strong support for local talent - in other words, I love this magazine. What they stand for is what I stand for, and I hope together we can elevate the real, local talent that bubbles in this great city of ours.  

If you remember, we recently participated in an Editorial for Frugal Fashion Week this Summer (Le POP!) and were lucky enough to have our spread featured in Fashion Series Volume 3 / URBAN! An exciting treat for us as well as our entire team. And now, to take it just one step further, I was privileged enough to also be featured this month in Fashion Series Volume 6 / EDGE! I not only had my latest Editorial, Metal Head, featured in the iconic magazine, but I was also interviewed as their featured Hairstylist of the Month!

I put together a fantastic team of some of the best people I know. Young, fresh, and full of ideas; we collaborated to create a brooding and sophisticated approach to hair, metal, and darkness in our production, Metal Head. The spread was published in Fashion Series along with an in-depth conversation (with yours truly!) discussing the correlation of hair, beauty, fashion, and Toronto!

I am deeply appreciative and so privileged to be featured in Fashion Series. It was an honour not only to create a spread for them with some amazingly creative and wonderful people, but to simply be an active part of the creative fabric of Toronto. We have incredible people here, I am thrilled to be able to work with so many of them. Thank you Fashion Series, and everyone involved, thank you for all you've given me and Toronto.

I recently had the privilege of collaborating with Directors/Producers Jossyl Bacalla and Toni Francis for a Spring 2013 Fashion Film. The clothing is a colourful and flowing display of colours and textures that mirror the shadow and light of the forested area. A concept developed by all parties involved; the result is a romantic and ethereal display of femininity, softness, and newness. I was Key Hair for the shoot, along with a fantastic production and beauty team that included Arjun Mano (Director of Photography), Philip Cheng (Production Assistant), and Natalie Hudaj (Makeup) - Featuring the talent of Jessica Wanuch and Cy Speckeen.
