| CURRENT 200 PORTRAITS | |
| This week we once again focus our attention solely onto one of Nick Knight's trio of cover stars for the 30th anniversary issue of i-D magazine - iconic British model Naomi Campbell. Captured live on the set of this celebratory shoot, Campbell - powerful, feline and inspiring as ever - takes captivating centre stage in her video portrait. They didn't dub her a Supermodel for nothing… Each Wednesday at 15:00 BST, SHOWstudio.com will launch a new selection of video portraits captured on a specific date, the series as a whole documenting not only this ground-breaking live shoot but a slice of twenty-first century popular culture.

McKnight's career reads like a who's who of fashion - from styling the latest Spring S/S 2011 offerings at the likes of Chanel and Fendi to creating the most unforgettable looks for over three decades of the most influential photographers - from Richard Avedon and Irving Penn to Nick Knight and Bruce Weber - not to mention the countless designers, supermodels and magazines that McKnight's talent has played master for.

| FROM THE SHOP LONE SIGURDSSON | |

 Since working on the SHOWstudio.com project Plasticine almost ten years ago in which a selection of A/W 2001 fashions were cloned, Lone Sigurdsson is back to sculpt another selection from the collections. Teaming up with the Shop on our In Wolves Clothing: Re-imagining the Doll exhibition, the celebrated Danish sculptor has now replicated the work of Hussein Chalayan, Yohji Yamamoto and Viktor & Rolf. Intricately accurate, the delicately posed figures emulate the shapes, contours and colours of the designers creations. Encased in glass domes, each plasticine deity exhibits the diversity of the latest catwalk looks. [more] | |

 Without a doubt one of the most nonconformist fashion houses in London, Brian Kirkby and Zowie Broach's label Boudicca is a favourite amongst those seeking conceptual, politicised and above all subversive beauty. Back in 2004, we were allowed a rare intrusion into the Boudicca studio, observing every detail and process, days before their S/S 2005 show. Alongside an interactive tour of their space, a short interview follows, where the enigmatic designers describe their inspiration for the studio as 'Scavenging Night Time Thieves and Daytime Believers'.
