Take a Drag or Two

*Photograph by Heather Key

Creative Media Manager, Photographer, Artist, and Fashion Enthusiast Fred Holston, is one of the most inspirational people I have met in my life. I am so honored to have his electric enthusiasm and creative mind involved in SHE WAS AN AMERICAN GIRL. For the store, Fred has hand created deconstructed knit shirts and dresses. But his talents go far beyond apparel. Fred was recently interviewed by Stylelikeu.com, he has created a series of photographs for Pamela Love's FW 2011 presentation while in New York for fashion week and continues to enspire his readers though his blog Take a Drag or Two.
