Guerilla Fashion with Elle Muliarchyk

One girl. One camera. Invading the world's most exclusive boutiques, stealing a moment in time. Elle Muliarchyk is a Belarusian model/artist that has been producing amazing photographs for the past few years. She goes into the world's most expensive stores with her camera, tripod, and various props hidden in her bag. She then transforms the changing room into her own set, snapping photos before suspicious salespeople come to check in on her. She's been caught several times, even arrested, but for Elle, stealing the soul of the clothes is worth it. Most recently, she's caught the attention of English designer Bella Freud, and the two have collaborated on a series of photos.

For Elle's complete portfolio, check out her website.
