The theme of our latest print mag, Diary Vol. 6, is technology and so, of course, it was only logical to capture the extent to which technology has become such a vital part of our daily lives in the context of a fashion editorial, shot in and around Westmount Square, itself a technological feat in modern architecture ahead of its time, thanks, in large part, to the genius of its architect, the legendary Mies van der Rohe. Hope you enjoy, Social Gals and Social Gents.
Cheers too to a spectacular team; Teamwork does indeed make the dream work, and what a team we had!
