A Colour-Rich Fashion
Shoot for Tallula Vintage

Tallula Vintage’s reworked fashion called for imagery with the same individuality as the clothes. The session moved between mirrored low-key portraits, a warm orange set, saturated colour and hard-edged shadow play—giving the collection several moods while keeping the styling, models and visual direction connected.

Individual Clothes Needed An Equally Bold Story

Tallula Vintage transforms vintage textiles, deadstock fabric and overlooked materials into distinctive reworked clothing. A straightforward catalogue treatment would not have reflected the personality, texture and movement of the pieces.

Hyde Studios gave the team room to build contrasting visual setups around the same collection. Mirrors multiplied silhouettes, concentrated light picked out sequins and jewellery, and the orange set introduced warmth, movement and hard-edged shadows.

One Collection
Several Distinctive Moods

The shoot used changes in light, colour, pose and reflective surfaces to create variety without losing the collection’s identity. Each setup revealed a different quality in the garments—from shimmer and movement to silhouette, texture and handmade detail.

01

Mirrored low-key portraits

Concentrated light and mirror reflections created layered portraits that draw attention to sequins, jewellery and overlapping silhouettes.

02

A warm orange set

Orange light transformed the same studio space into a warmer fashion world, giving metallic and lace garments a visibly different energy.

03

Hard-edged shadow play

Direct light, bold hats and graphic shadows introduced cleaner editorial frames that balance the darker mirrored images.

One Fashion Story With Real Archive Depth

The completed archive contains 91 final photographs. That depth gives Tallula more than a single hero image: it supports a full case study, a varied six-image gallery and multiple social sequences without relying on the same frame repeatedly.

Warm light, metallic texture and a second viewpoint created in-camera

Styling and Light Worked As One Direction

The orange setup demonstrates how the studio treatment responded to the clothes rather than competing with them. Warm colour emphasised metallic texture, while the mirror created a second viewpoint within the same frame.

That relationship between garment, pose and lighting carries through the full gallery, helping several very different looks feel like parts of one fashion story.

Selected Images from the Tallula Vintage fashion story

The final gallery brings together highlights from across the session—from mirrored low-key portraits and shimmering sequins to saturated orange sets, expressive movement and graphic shadows.

Although each setup has its own mood, the distinctive styling, rich colour and playful direction connect the images as one complete fashion story.

Rooted in Wigan’s Creative Community

Tallula Vintage is Adele Atherton’s Wigan-based vintage and reworked fashion business. From its creative studio at The Old Courts, the label gives vintage textiles, deadstock fabric and overlooked materials a new life through distinctive one-off clothing.

Features from The Old Courts, People Make Wigan and Wigan Council connect the business to the area’s wider creative and sustainable-fashion community. The portraits on this page show how that individual approach translated into a studio fashion story at Hyde.
