Glam at the Corcoran Gallery of Art.

Washington Life Magazine and their fashion squad teamed up for a high fashion photo shoot channeling creativity within the walls of the Corcoran Gallery of Art.
The WL March 2010 fashion shoot was shot on location at the Corcoran museum. The museum happened to be closed due to severe weather in february, so they had the whole place to create a breathtaking shoot showcasing the latest couture fashions. Photographed by Tim Coburn, styled by James Cornwell, and glammed up by Carl Ray, Meghan Dorsey, and Courtney Graham, this shoot is one for the history books.
Take a behind-the-scenes look below!
