Rumi Neely x RVCA Machinery Dress
Second time ever in a tanning booth..these things freak me out. But they also look awesome.
The pieces I designed for RVCA are out! The Machinery dress is a tribute to Milla Jovovich's bandage gear in The Fifth Element and the Triad tank is an extremely generously cut and wearable basic. Check them both out on RVCA's site here - they'll also be available at Bloomingdale's and Pacific Sunwear. Thank you to everyone at RVCA who was involved in this collaboration, it's such an honor to be part of the RVCA family...the way Pat brings together creative people from so many different walks of life is inspiring.

I love your photos!!!
With my claustrophobia, I definitely cannot do tanning booths (hence my pale skin, haha) - incredible photos though!
Holy crap!! Love it! :) I could see them doing an editorial like this in a magazine and then cautioning people about all of the harmful things it does to you. (ranting)
Congrats on the collection. :)

these pics are sooo insanely cool! i love light...can't believe you guys managed to do this in a tanning booth.
and of course love the dress!!

i especially love the third photo
Striking, to say the least. Congratulations on the collection.
i am in love with that dress!!! didn't know my wardrobe was missing something until i saw these pics!
good job rumi!
Congrats!!! The lighting in these are amazing. Photos turned out great!

nice touch... great photos..
love the idea :)
cool pictures and i love the dress...especially the fact that it was inspired by lee-loo in fifth element but coe on girl get out of the tanning booth! those things are soo sooooo bad for you!
The dress is absolutely amazing, nice work.
Congrats on the collection! Great photos, I'm scared for you...using tanning beds! eek!
xoxo
These photos are really rad!
I was actually looking at these two pieces yesterday on the website! super cute! congrats!!
Beautiful photos. That dress is amazing! I will definitely check out your designs ;)
I love these photos! The tanning bed lighting is great with your beautiful dress!!

This is perhaps my favorite set of photos of you ever!
Such a crazy idea taking pic's in a tanning machine, but I love it!
Oh god, I really hope you the only purpose for visiting a dreaded tanning salon was for these pictures, that turned out amazing! I REALLLLLLLLY hope you don't go tanning, you might as well start smoking too.
The two pieces you designed are cute, but they look the same overall. I could make them in less than an hour from scratch. But i am glad they are less that $100. I was actually surprised they were priced kind of low, knowing you.
Awesome pictures dude!
Love RVCA so glad your designing with them, Pat is actually my cousin :)

HANDS down coolest post, you've ever posted wowww
Jen Aniston's smart water ads got nothing on this hahaa
Wauw rumi, you look fantastic. Your such a pretty girl and you always have the ability to create new looks. And the idea about taking photos during tanning - who would have thought about that? very creative. I adore you (:
Love Sophie

Brilliant concept, awesome poses as usual.
Wow those pictures are sick!!!
Great thanks!!

I really hope the only reason for you even stepping foot on the tanning bed was to take these photos. Tanning beds are extremely bad for you! Even if you use a tanning bed only once, your risk for melanoma - the deadliest skin cancer - increases by 75 percent. It's just asking for skin cancer.
Love the dress! I'm def buying it with one of my paychecks this summer. It's fabulous.
And the tank, need that too. I think I may wear both all the time!
Congrats on the collection!
This is probably the only reason tanning beds should be used anymore. I never thought about how cool the lighting would look! With the poses and the lighting, the whole look is very sci-fi chic, I love it!

Cool concept for the shoot!
I really like that you used Mila's character from the 5th element as inspiration because her get-up in that movie was super badass!

Rumi, what size do you have on that dress? I can't decide which to buy and we seem to be the same size, so it seems like a good idea to ask!
so excited for your RCVA collabo
Love the pics. What are they fore?
Fucking amaaaaazing photos.
the most original photos i have ever seen that are still boarding on sane
esther xx
oh my god i've been waiting for this dress forever. And for some reason I thought it was gonna be over a 100 bucks. but it's NOT! so i bought both colors. ahhhhhhhhh! milla jovovich has always been a creative inspiration of mine so the fact that you channeled the fifth element into this dress is absolutely craaazy.
you're awesome,

tanning booths terrify me. skin cancer no thanks. but the eerie lighting here is so creepily futuristic! in a good way. the third pic is my favorite. i dont know if its the way your hair is falling in a beachy way or how you're unscrewing the water, but so good! xo aly
p.s. congrats on RVCA!!
AMAZING!
beautiful photos
and congratulations on the wonderful pieces
i cant wait to go out and buy 7 of those tank tops
(one for every day of the week so i dont have to worry about timing the wash)
they are just that awesome!

XOXO
Ale!
the colors! the dynamic posing! Love the photos Rumi- I can definitely envision them in any fashion magazine!
gorgeous everything, shoes, dress. I want to buy the tank, but i'm broke...
also, yes, tanning booths are bad, but it would be quite entertaining to see someone with a tan of that dress!

AWESOME SHOOT! THESE ARE A-MAZING. KRISTIN IS DEF. A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER AND YOU'RE A GREAT MODEL.
5e element, of course =)
Great dress! And I love how your pics mirror the scene from Fifth Element where she is first waking up, espcially the second-to-last pic there. Very cool.
Much love for the photos and the dress! I desperately want to buy one, but RVCA don't post to Australia despite having an Aus specific site!?! I'll be visiting Bloomingdale's at the end of the year - do you think they'll hold me a couple until then? haha.

these photos are ridiculously stunning; I swear they could be straight out of some ridiculously cool high fashion magazine and you just look ridiculously gorgeous in that dress.
This is such a sick shoot. Where do you come across this stuff? I want a cut out dress too preferably on the natural waist though.
These photos are A-MAZING! What a great idea :)
Poses look great. Everything is stunning..amazing
How can we buy this dress from Australia??? Rvca doesn't ship here....
You're right...it makes for some awesome pics!
Rumi, you have to watch this...with you're obvious love of photography & originality, "Fighting Gravity," they appear to float mid-air.
http://lisapetrarca.blogspot.com/2010/06/americas-got-talent.html
I love these photos! They're so futuristic.
i'm glad these images are finally out, they are so cool and innovative
cute dress
It's awesome you can design for RVCA, designing always was my biggest dream..
And the pieces are awesome! I'll defenintly buy one! And the pics are too, the light in the tanning booth looks VERY cool.
xoxo Sootjeelina <3
These photos are sooooo awesome, i'm speechless :)
Congrats for RCVA!:) and I love the dress and the idea of shooting in tanning booth:)
Love the lighting! I want to try this out, but you risk getting odd tan lines! This is my favorite post of yours<3

holy fuck you have no idea how much i love/am obsessed with this idea. the fifth element is like my favorite movie ever....im being leelu for halloween...yes i already decided..but not the scotch tape outfit in the beginning but the second one.
..i work at american rag and......BRUCE WILLIS came in...i melted and specifically told him as i rang him up "by the way fifth element is seriously the best movie ever..." he was stoked. wow this is an embarrassingly long comment. anyway MILLA RULES!

These are incredible! A cool and unique concept.
Looks like a fun little photo shoot. Love the dress ;)
I agree it seems a shame that a lot of what Rumi wear is gifted nowadays but remember she did build this blog up to be a very successful one before all the free gifts started coming.
That shoot is such a creative idea! I had never seen it before.
Love it, keep it up <333.
Check out our blog!
these pictures are sickkkkkkkk :)
there's nothing wrong with gifts! everyone should quit complaining. rumi has clearly worked very hard and still does. it's amazing that we can follow her through this blog everyday and seek inspiration from her as she submerges herself in the industry. hard work does deserve reward!
go rumi!! great photos, and congrats!
AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHY! Love the dress too!

I want this dress! are there other colours?
