Sully’s Bed

without comments

My friend, Sully Walsh, invited me out to his loft-to-die-for in Brooklyn a couple of weeks ago, and I spent a day taking pictures of the lovely Sigail Currie for my fashion portfolio.

The centerpiece of the shoot was Sully’s hand-built metal bed, which is an amazing piece of functional artwork.  First, it’s an ingenious bondage bed because you can use it to tie somebody up a million different ways. But it’s also a very elegant piece of sculpture, and I’m sure a lot of people would be happy just to live with it and sleep in it every night.

Sully makes all kinds of custom metal furniture, and also little specialty items.  He happened to have a pair of small hand-tooled custom handcuffs on hand and let us use them too.  I thought they made wonderful accessories to one of the evening gowns that our stylist Tanya had pulled for the day.

Gentleman that he is, Sully even sacrificed a piece out of his tee shirt collection so Tanya could make a feather hat out of it.

Of course, most of the credit for the overall beauty of the shoot goes to our amazing glam team – from left to right, Andrea Wilson genius hair stylist, Khush Singh brilliant makeup artist, our model Sigail, and Tanya Seeman stylist to the stars!
