Embodying the opulence and architectural impact of Art Deco styles, the latest release from Shimmer celebrates sophistication from the 1920s to the 2020s.
Shimmer, the capsule collection for Seraphin, combines the made-in-Japan craftsmanship of Seraphin with crystal details to bring a modern spin to Old Hollywood glamour. The polished and lustrous acetates, architectural metal, and textured stones create looks full of dimension, poise, and power, the company states. Just like the iconic skyscrapers associated with the time period, Shimmer is exploring oversized styles, creating silhouettes that echo the statement buildings of the 1920s.
In selecting a photographer to capture this captivating collection, Chief Creative Officer David Duralde sought out “a master of light” to fully translate the star power of the frames. East Coast-based Tatsuro Nishimura was the clear choice. His precise lighting and framing captured the model in a dreamy, vivid tone that perfectly expressed the radiance of the frames. Like vintage glamour portraits, there is a romance to these images, but with the confidence of a modern eye. Tatsuro’s excellence has earned him multiple photography awards from Graphis Photo Annual, the International Photography Awards, Communication Arts Photo Award, Applied Arts Award, and Black and White Photography Magazine Portfolio Awards, among others.
