| COMING UP IN CAMERA: LADY GAGA | |
| The countdown has begun - quite literally - to our eagerly-anticipated live IN CAMERA interview with LADY GAGA. Mere hours before her appearance at London's O2, for two hours from 12:00 - 14:00 BST on Sunday 30 May Lady Gaga will exclusively answer a dazzling array of questions submitted by her fans across the globe, and a selection of her friends and supporters. In classic In Camera style, a live transcript will be typed during the unedited broadcast, allowing an insight not only into Lady Gaga herself, but into the process behind the interview. | |
| COMING UP IN FASHION, STEPHEN JONES - LIVE | |
 | |
 Master milliner Stephen Jones joins us at 11:00 BST this Thursday 20 May for an exclusive live interview which promises to be as unique as the bespoke creations he is famed for. Credited with revitalising modern fashion interest in millinery and with an incomparable career catapulted from the eclectic London club scene of the '80s to the heads of the Royal Family and every pristine up-do at Ascot, Jones' honourable history will come full-focus on Thursday as he becomes the latest subject of our In Fashion interview series.

| CURRENT OBJECT FETISH | |
| | |
 Fashion fetish stereotype number one? Shoes. Odd, then, that this week's Object Fetish is showcasing only our second pair of the A/W 2010 season - Loewe's flirtatious, fetishistic fur-throttled Mary Janes. A bold choice for any fashion follower, there is evidently more than meets the eye - references to Surrealism, Louis XIV and the buttoned-up primness of a middle class housewife are thrown around in deciphering the meaning behind their triple-buckled charm. But they do look terribly pretty, also. [more] | |
| COMING UP RAW POWER | |
| | |
 What do fashion and martial arts have in common? Beauty, certainly. Technique, definitely. And cold, hard discipline. Filmmaker Sean Capone combines all of the above in a series of abstractly elegant art films celebrating the Alexander McQueen PUMA S/S 2010 collection, launching this Friday on SHOWstudio.com. After winning our Raw Power contest last year with his dynamic entry Tigersprung, Capone took both the title and inspiration for his final series of video vignettes from the philosophies of legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi and his Book of Five Rings - combining fashion and martial arts into a beautifully synthesised (and flawlessly choreographed) whole.

| FROM THE SHOP BLACK TIE, 2010 | |
| | |
 According to London style-maker and artist Alister Mackie, as well as last weekend’s New York Times, the bow tie is back - a simple style statement at first glance, but as ever, there are a myriad interpretations. Owing something to Hogarth's satirical Five Order of Periwigs - and not a little to those glass-imprisoned bug studies spicing up many a museological back-passageway - Mackie pins down a selection of fashion's finest specimens to chart the evolution of the humble dickie-bow from its archetypal 1920s form through to Dunhill and Lanvin’s latest au courant iterations. And in case of a sartorial emergency, you simply need to break the glass (we don't advise it though). [more] | |
| FROM THE ARCHIVE IN CAMERA: BJORK | |
| | |
 We're gearing up for our live broadcast of the latest In Camera with modern musical icon Lady Gaga, so the time seems ripe to look back to our October 2003 interview with pop pioneer Björk. Rather than a live camera stream, the progress of Björk's revealing and intimate interview was shown onto the site through a series of image-captures, and a transcript typed real-time as the Icelandic star answered questions from fans across the world, including fellow industry legends Kylie Minogue and Michael Jackson.
