Looking to their Scottish heritage for this story, hair stylist Sophie Jane Anderson and photographer Emma Crichton were inspired by Perthshire born Effie Gray and the Scottish Pre-Raphaelites. This story is a contemporary take on the 1860s movement. Considered ‘real women’, the Pre-Raphaelite women were a defining feature of the movement, depicted as tall, strong and sexually empowered. Which is reflected in this casting of strong individual and unusually beautiful humans. The idea of this story is to reflect the modern day equivalent of this reactionary group. Taking style inspiration from this era and mixing it with the latest youth culture. Using both male and female models to interpret the current representation of women. Working real hair looks along with wigs and hair pieces taking inspiration from paintings from the Pre-Raphaelite era. Shot on location in Hackney, on the street and in studio.
