Lauren Bennett Fashion Editorial by James Hickey, Los Angeles Fashion Photographer

Lauren Bennett Fashion Editorial for Astonish Magazine

They say timing is everything, and this post is no exception. We’re thrilled to announce the latest #houseofhickey editorial featuring Lauren Bennett (@laurenbennett) for Astonish Magazine, hitting the newsstands now. Meanwhile, the singer, dancer and model best known as a member of the girl group G.R.L and Pussy Cat Dolls just released her latest single Hurricane on iTunes! Indeed, this multi-talented creative is bringing it. She’s on the pulse of pop culture and continues to reinvent herself. Lauren’s strong sense of aesthetics and fashion industry experience have given her vision and decisiveness. She was a major player in the creative process, and her ideas were totally befitting of our House of Hickey sensibility. Wardrobe stylist Judith Len (@judystylexo) provided a color palette of pastels and burgundy, mixing retro styling with modern edge. Hair by Andrew Miranda (@andystylist) and makeup by Satya Linak (@satya_linak) were tailored to complement each look, while maintaining glowing, contoured skin and no-fuss hair. In post, we kept the edits minimal, allowing for imperfection and authenticity, while applying what James calls “a touch of retro haze finish,” and voilà, the final images emerged. Enjoy!
