little late 70s androgyny and early 80s romance stirred up with dashes of punk rock and images of Rod Stewart, David Bowie and the Ramones. All this inspired Ricochet, a raw and gritty photo collection produced by TIGI’s international creative team and launched at the company’s World Release in Las Vegas on September 24, 2006. The international creative team consists of Anthony Mascolo, James Morrison, Nick Irwin, Akos Bodi, Zak Mascolo, Heath Grout, Fabio Collucci, and Thomas Osborn. 09.12.06
