since 2002, simona weiland has been producing styling for fashion photography and video commercials.

simona's approach is to reflect zeitgeist through a choice of details and hints. she freely combines clothes selected from second-hand stores or personal wardrobes with those provided by fashion boutiques.

the photo-session 'to feel like a pensioner' was published in the saturday supplement of latvia's main daily newspaper 'diena' on the occasion of publication of 'rigas modes' catalogue.

'iconography' was made in an abandoned church in northern latvia.

'couch tigers' was made from modified clothes originally purchased in one of riga's bazaars.

simona assisted the fashion designer keita a.k.a. iveta k. karklina (ba, ma in fashion, central st martin's college of art, london) in producing 'auto-nomy' for the latvian women's magazine 'santa'.

'footballer's weekend' was an (unpublished) proposal commissioned by 'sepp football fashion 2004', a special publication dedicated to the world soccer championship by the berlin-based magazine 'achtung mode'.

between 2002 and 2004, simona made styling for various video commercials at 'vilks studio' film production company.
