Thomas Giddings

Photographer

Bio

Thomas Giddings’ first ever camera was a snappy-snaps disposable which he bought for a family trip to Los Angeles when he was 6, and so started an ever growing passion for photography and travel. Thomas has gone on to shot for various clients including British Vogue, Vogue Hommes, Nowness, Twin, Garage and WSJ. He balances this with personal projects and is currently working on his third solo photography show and accompanying book to launch in 2016.

ADAM LIPPES

Last June, Adam Lippes did something that few designers get to do: He got control of his label back from a big-time fashion conglomerate.

St. Louis-based Kellwood (whose holdings include Vince and Rebecca Taylor) acquired Adam, the designer’s popular men’s and women’s contemporary line, in 2010. It aimed to enlarge the scale, and started amping up production to match. The movement, Lippes recalls, was “more, more, more.” But now that he’s bought it back, he’s taking Adam the other way: small, elevated, personal. And with the exception of its celebrated t-shirts, it’s entirely womenswear.
