Sonny Vandevelde
Sonny Vandevelde is a Belgian-Australian fashion photographer living between Belgium and the outback. Born in Europe but raised on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. He had his first camera when he was about 7 , and really got into it more when he started school, taking pictures of friends , excursions etc…After school he went to college to further his photographic skills, but it only lasted about 3 months, as he felt he wasn’t learning anything, so he packed his bags and went to the snowy mountains with his best friend, Craig. From there he got into Sports photography, doing a lot of free style ski-ing photos, doing covers for the Australian ski magazines, and quickly got picked up to do the shootings for Quicksilver.

Cacharel FW10

A plexi catwalk, a voice, a schocking pink invitation. Cacharel gets an injection of youthfulness by young Belgian designer Cedric Charlier. The La Cambre graduate has been living in Paris quite a while now assisting Alber Elbaz in the Lanvin house for six years. Last year this talented young Belgian finally got his chance to step into the spotlights when he became Creative Director for one of the most ‘French’ fashion houses: Cacharel. The house was steered by a few designers the last years. Eley Kishimoto for example but the aesthetics of the English-Japanese couple didn’t wow Paris and after one season they disappeared. It’s Cedric’s second season and Cacharel becomes the young designer. He’s a fresh breath of air for the house and you notice that he did thorough research in the Cacharel archives.
