The stunning Kayleigh was asked to wear this very sexy Nortia Black Jersey Mini Dress by Necessary Evil in a recent photoshoot for Kates Clothing.
The LTB(Little Black dress) feels fabulous to wear and can be worn as much off the shoulder as you feel, and features adjustable shoulder straps. The top has a ruched bust which is scooped at the front, and ruched arms going down into a classic shapely mini dress body.
So what does everyone think of the gorgeous Kayleigh?
The photoshoot took place at Kate’s Clothing head office on the warmest Saturday of this summer. Kate had worked with the beautiful Lenore before, and when Lenore mentioned she’d be around in Birmingham, I jumped at the chance to photograph her for some new products and the next Necessary Evil collection.
I met Lenore for the first time when we sat down for a morning cuppa before the shoot. It was really easy for us to communicate with each other and to choose the right direction for the set, you can see the results for yourselves. Lenore was really professional and flexible with all of the garments even the tiny tutu skirt didn’t make the model blush (I was a bit distracted though).
She was so easy and pleasant to work with, there was no issues with posing or any awkward moments of confusion, everything went really smoothly- it was a great laugh as well! I can’t wait to work with her again.
So what does everyone think of the gorgeous Lenore? Be sure to visit Kate’s Clothing to see more photo’s of her.
