— Collections S/S 2013 Simone Rocha talks through her collection After a much lauded Spring/Summer 2013 collection, Irish designer Simone Rocha sat down with SHOWstudio's Lou Stoppard to discuss the vision behind her showcase and the moments from her own personal history that helped inform it. 'I really wanted this collection to have a part of me, from early on', she explains. From school uniform to teenage kisses, Rocha's collection drew on a range of occurrences from her Irish upbringing, all of which she dissects candidly in this exclusive filmed interview. — Tumblr — Guest Curator Laura Dettingmeijer Each month SHOWstudio hands the reins of our Tumblr over to a guest curator, offering them the chance to turn our page into their personal scrapbook of images, artwork and text. Following in the footsteps of the likes of Simon Foxton, Anna Trevelyan, Rei Nadal and Peter de Potter, Dutch multimedia artist Laura Dettingmeijer will be November's guest curator. Her approach centres on creating new worlds by combining colours, images and music. Visit our Tumblr from tomorrow, 1 November, to see her dreamworlds take shape. — Discussion — Cartes De Tendresse Amanda Harlech In an exclusive preview of 'Maps of Tenderness', her forthcoming, reflective ten-part collaboration with SHOWstudio, Amanda Harlech addressed crowds at The 2012 Edinburgh International Fashion Festival. The self-declared 'map-reader and pathfinder' discussed poignant 'flashpoints' in her fashion journey, including her life-changing collaborative relationships with John Galliano and Karl Lagerfeld. — Project — Restricted Love Atsuko Kudo This week Japanese latex doyenne Atsuko Kudo took part in the Lingerie London show benefiting the Seven Bar Foundation. To compliment the retro feel of the collection - which drew inspiration from Wong Kar-wai's 'In the Mood For Love' - SHOWstudio captured the evening's events using a variety of vintage feel apps including Instagram, 8mm and Cinemagram. The results are displayed online alongside a range of Kudo's personal design sketches. — From the Shop — Flora Nick Knight In a bold departure from the fashion photography synonymous with his name, Nick Knight is currently presenting a solo exhibition of floral still lifes at SHOWstudio Shop. In two stunning bodies of work, Knight captures and explores both the beauty and the brevity of the flower. See these incredible works now at 1-9 Bruton Place, open weekdays 11:00 - 18:00 GMT. — Audio Mix — Fashion Mix Camilla Morton Writer Camilla Morton, who you'll remember as a key panelist during our season of fashion commentary last month, offers an invigorating infusion of Aerosmith, Spice Girls, Wild Cherry and Liza (with a 'Z') to this week's 'Fashion Mix'. Inspired by the trends of S/S 13, Morton's fashionable playlist will have you dancing from 9 to 5 all week. — From the Blog — LiveStudios A series of Flora LiveStudios Timed with Nick Knight's 'Flora' exhibition, November will see three flora-themed LiveStudios, featuring Fashion East's Claire Barrow, lingerie couturier Carine Gilson and milliner Piers Atkinson.

Drawing inspiration from the macabre, nightmarish illustrations that litter vintage childhood fiction, Knight presents a vision of Karlie Kloss that is part Grimm's fairy tale, part Parisian opulence. The haunting vintage-inspired editorial is juxtaposed with pithy death app mini films, which see Kloss suffer various violent deaths all while clad in the best haute couture from A/W 2012.

— From the Shop New Exhibition - Flora SHOWstudio Shop is pleased to announce the debut presentation of Nick Knight's first limited edition portfolio, Flora. The portfolio contains fifteen prints selected from the specimens Knight captured from the herbarium collection at the Natural History Museum, London. These images are representative of the arresting diversity in botany that he found so exciting when he first gained access to the herbarium in 1993. Alongside Flora, Knight will also debut a new body of work - monumental still lifes depicting roses that are poised between photography and painting. These prints showcase a new, never before exhibited, experimental printing technique that Knight has been tirelessly developing. The exhibition will be on view at SHOWstudio Shop, 1 - 9 Bruton Place, London, W1J 6LT and will be open from tomorrow, Friday 12 October. — Collections — Round-Ups New York, London, Milan and Paris Feeling behind on S/S 2013?
