Man did we hear that word a lot this past weekend. The “Fashion” industry. It’s a crazy one.

On Friday and Saturday we attended the first ever Fashion Palette seminars to hear from some of the industries most respected experts. For any young designer that missed it, you should probably check it out next year. It was an awesome experience full of valuable insight. Here’s a few of our favourite highlights:

This is Arturo Elena. He is a sick fashion illustrator from Spain. These photos really don’t do his work justice.

Kate from Stylehunter.com is on top of the game at the moment when it comes to working out the web. Really intelligent stuff.

The lovely ladies from White Sands.

This is Peter Dwyer. At one point he looked like some sort of weird reptile dude giving a presentation that would really freak out the kids.

But he did have some awesome work.

Rodd and Gunn. For the man’s man.

InStyle showed us some awesome shoots they’ve worked on lately.

Daniel Herman showing some sexy latex underwear and some really sick techniques.

Insight dudes.

That’s where it’s at.

And last but not least, Peter Morrissey. Absolutely killing it.

He probably hates it that I link to his bio on the Morrissey brand website (read: latest news), but just check out what this guy has done. Note to Peter: should start your own Wiki page.
