My sincerest apologies for the flighty, few and far between updates as of late; I've been engrossed in a flurry of exhilarating, albeit labor-intensive projects with several magazines, photographers, designers, and organizations slated to be released throughout the forthcoming festive season!
While I cannot reveal too many details quite yet, one of my pet holiday projects is an upcoming benefit that I am co-chairing with designer Rachel Antonoff to raise awareness about animal cruelty as manifested on two fronts: barbaric factory farms (with funds proffered to Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary) and merciless puppy mills (to benefit Maddie's Fund).

Scheduled to betide in a magnificent historical Manhattan haunt this winter, a killer hosting committee will preside over a silent art auction featuring works created especially in a forest and fauna theme [including the original painting above] by the likes of Kime Buzzelli, Kate Wilson (of Little Doodles), Caitlin Shearer (of The Bleeding Knees Club) and Danny Roberts alongside special musical performances by fun., Steel Train, and other sublime surprise guests.
In the meantime, tweet at me @bunnyBISOUS!
ox, Jules
