Maximalist Old Hollywood

Inspired by maximalism and Old Hollywood glamour, this editorial created by Shaina Sterrett and Taryn Ruiz features bold patterns, vibrant colors, and striking details. Blending high fashion, luxury, and rock-and-roll, Shaina Sterrett captured an anti-bride spirit that transcends traditional wedding imagery. The Lafayette Hotel in San Diego, offered a rich setting with its iconic pool, striped cabanas, and eclectic interiors.

LA-based Jaxon James Couture provided a stunning Kim Kassas Couture gown with a dramatic corseted silhouette and a sheer skirt, paired with a lace Juliet cap veil for a chic touch. The groom's look included an unbuttoned shirt and statement brooches, exuding effortless confidence.

These components come together to create an editorial that exudes a modern, rebellious, and effortlessly cool vibe, merging luxury bridal fashion with individuality, attitude, and a playful defiance of conventional wedding norms.
