Our latest 16sixty model Daisy came over last week for an absolutely wonderful photoshoot at our studio. Daisy is a vivacious, sharp, intelligent and wonderfully confident young lady. She's currently studying to become an actress. She's had loads of experience in theatre, musical theatre, TV and commercials.
No doubt we will be seeing a great deal more of this amazingly talented  young lady.

   Jessica Ennis








'Jessica Ennis is fat' screamed the headline from a tabloid newspaper recently. Apparently, a ‘high ranking person’ within UK Athletics had made the deeply disparaging remarks about Miss Ennis. Most sane people reading this article must have scratched their heads in complete bewilderment at such a strange statement. Jessica is one of our top athletes, and certainly fitter than most people in the country by the looks of her washboard abdomen, lean, tight body and her undoubted athletic  prowess. One can only guess that the person who made such comments must have gotten her mixed up with someone else. Since when did 'fit' become 'fat'? 


The recent obsession with obesity in the media has launched a flotilla of fat-busting experts and self-styled obesity gurus who're making a fortune out of people's ignorance and misery. Fat does not necessarily mean unhealthy, nor does it mean that we should become paranoid about eating nice, good, wholesome food and living an enjoyable lifestyle. The confusing arguments surrounding obesity has made many 'normal' people feel unnecessarily guilty about being big or fat or 'over-weight' and is getting more and more confusing as healthy people are being stigmatised. Some people no matter how much they diet, will never look like an anorexic super model. In this respect, the fashion industry has been guilty of promoting unrealistic views of women. 


All human beings come in a variety of sizes, shapes, shades and colours and until we can be genetically engineered to fit into a onesize-fit-all society, celebrate your life, no matter what size you are.

Where's all the Men's clothes, then?...




16sixty Men

Where's all the men's clothes then?... said my mate the other day. He was referring to the fact that on 16sixty we don't seem to have as many things for men as for ladies. OK, women spend more on clothes than men so fashion has always been geared towards getting the attention of ladies. Of course, nowadays, more men are spending a lot more money on looking good, (not just on clothes but hair and grooming stuff). Guys tend to be more practical about clothes. Jeans, T-shirt (and maybe a suit for work or a special occasion) are the usual suspects in a guy's wardrobe. I must admit that I've been a bit guilty of buying too many items of pointless clothes when I was in my 'fashion victim' phase.  Now it's more about quality and that inner feel-good factor that defines my own individual style. Less is more, that's now my motto.
