It looks seriously fun.
Richard Avedon introduced Nick Waplington and Isaac Mizrahi. Avedon had seen the then 22-year-old British photographer's work while Waplington was still a student at the Royal College of Art and, as Nick recalls,"Dick decided that Isaac and I should work together because, well, we were both kind of young." The idea was for Waplington to document the inner workings of Mizrahi's studio as the then up-and-coming New York designer prepared for fashion weeks.
In between moments of frenetic energy — herding models, going to work on mountains of silk shantung with scissors and pins — there was all the waiting around and late-night delirium that comes with working long hours towards a deadline."There'd be music playing, lots of joking. Then the serious bits. It was long days, when there was only a week left until fashion week.
In the mornings, Waplington would walk from his apartment on lower Fifth Avenue across Washington Square Park to Isaac's studio in Soho and after late-night fittings he'd continue on to The Sound Factory or Save the Robots,"a funny place with sawdust on the floor."
