  2. Behind The Look: Part 2

From Up Here's October issue, here are more of photographer Hannah Eden's shots from the fashion feature and few words from the creative minds behind the looks:

Model Allyson Menzies wears SKOOKUMbrand’s ‘Yukon Parka’ in magenta.

 


SKOOKUMbrand

The Designer: Megan Waterman

The Place: Yukon

The Story: “We use only Canadian furs. My favourite changes week to week. Coyote has so many different textures, it goes with anything, it’s so versatile. But Arctic wolf has that poufy dramatic flair. Then there’s the Arctic fox, feminine and sleek. And the wolverine is just the punk rock of furs: spiky, unique, different. It all depends on what mood you’re in.”
