Last Thursday, Dallas had a small taste of Paris Fashion at the V.O.D. Boutique in the midst of high heat. Allison V. Smith, Dallas photographer, recently released “Le Zine”; a beautiful 29 page magazine of full color photographs from her work made in Paris at the Fall and Spring Fashion Weeks of 2012. Le Zine is a limited edition of 250, signed and saddled stitched, available here for $20. (There are roughly 90 zines left!) The signing party was full of friends and fans decked, some in berets, while Kirby Brown performed an acoustic set of his folk derived music.  Fellow Dallas photographer, Steve Visneau projected his V.O.D. Boutique Spring 2013 video onto a wall of the Dallas Boutique. It was a definitive Dallas photography event of the summer, bar or not.
