A Floral Couture workshop hosted by Françoise Weeks and Alicia Schwede in Seattle, Washington.
The workshop took place in October and the autumn season played an integral roll in selecting the color palette, the amazing textures available were key in adding flair to the botanical couture designs.
The finished couture floral dresses, masks, and botanical jewelry were photographed by Alexandra Knight. Keita Horn of Smashing Petals took the reigns of organizing and styling the photoshoot with Alexandra and the models on the last day of the three day workshop.
Workshop attendees & creators of the pieces seen here: Nicki Ivins of Branches, Melissa Sullivan of Le Bloomerie, Jing of Mirror Floral, Heather of Vinnocki Farm, Tara of Specialty Floral, Dora of Petals of Provence, Cathleen Vanek, and Barbera Brooks.
Models for the workshop are: Erin Reinholz-Alden, Isobella Bloom, Maddy Sullivan, and Margaret Cho.
