The book explores the abandoned North Brother island which served as a multi- purpose medical facility as well as housing complex for city of Manhattan since the 1920s. Overgrown with plant life and brimming with feral animals, this verdant terrain has become the creative inspiration for Chris Payne&#8217;s new work. After seeing a lecture of about his new book I was instantly fascinated, obsessed, and became overwhelmed with a sense of urgency to shoot our next Posture fashion editorial in this fabulous location (we\u2019ll figure out the legalities of this matter later).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">In any case, I thought I\u2019d share with you some of the themes and ideas I had for my ultimate dream editorial aptly titled Vestiges-Dreamscapes for a Queer Summer Romance. This moodboard\u00a0 explores and indulges on a more nuanced twist on summer romance but with a lush visual vocabulary. The shoot is broken up into three parts: High Tea &amp; Absinthe featuring Laverne Cox and Andrej Pejic, Swedish Solstice Aperitif with Andrej Pejic and Erika Linder, and who can forget the most romantic of any editorial: a Midsummer Wedding with Andrej Pejic and Laverne Cox. I invite you to check out our Pinterest Board by the clicking the link below to see some of the ideas I\u2019ve come up with.
