Ellen Von Unwerth at the opening of her NYC show

It was great to finally meet Ellen Von Unwerth. I have followed her work for many years and found her rapid ascent to stardom quite fascinating. She started as a model, and one day she decided to bring her camera to a photo shoot and began taking pictures of everyone on the crew. An AD saw the pictures, and now the rest is history.

Pictured with her on the right is Erin Fetherston. Also attending the opening was Anna Sui.
