Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a fashion shoot? You might be surprised to discover that it’s not always glitz and gloss but it is glamorous, nonetheless, in fact even when things get dirty we don't lower our fashion quotient.

Watch Splash TV presenter Clare Geeves as she goes behind the scenes of Splash Fashions’ latest video shoot. She joins resident Splash model Masha and the glamour girls and boys, on location amid industrial cranes, pipes, hardhats and makeshift green rooms for the 'Get Dirty' campaign of the new DNM collection by the brand.

It’s an unusual backdrop for the fashion industry, but the cement, dust and sand provide the perfect setting to accentuate the new hard hitting denim collection. So get clicking and check out the making of a campaign which will make you want to roll in the sand wearing your favourite denims.

It’s the perfect time for some more style advice from Prianca Pradhan, our regular guest fashionista (or should that be “Splashionista”?) from local blog Fashionably Yours. As the weather starts to heat up, Prianca turns her attention to summer skirts.

Summer blues

This season’s latest infatuation is for beautiful electric blue! I’ve just discovered the perfect summer skirt at Splash — it’s ideal for dressing up for work and dressing down for the evening. Here’s how the same skirt can be transformed into two completely different looks:

For Work: Team your electric blue skirt with a sheer white top and discreet gold and neon accessories for an on-trend look: a gold belt and bracelet strikes a stark contrast with the blue, while the statement neon bag adds a quirky, trendy touch of style.

After hours: Add a dash of bright pink to contrast with the electric blue, together with a funky necklace, belt and envelope clutch. The asymmetric, dalmatian print top adds drama to the outfit while the candy pink gives it a girly charm.
 

However you wear it, an electric blue summer skirt is definitely this season’s must-have item; the fact that it’s so color friendly and versatile makes it my current hot favorite.
