— Hatstand Nick Knight, Ruth Hogben, Philip Treacy SHOWstudio is proud to launch 'Hatstand', an exclusive fashion film created by Nick Knight and Ruth Hogben. The energetic short celebrates renowned milliner Philip Treacy's recent London Fashion Week return - a star-studded event featuring a line up of black models clad in looks from Michael Jackson's iconic stage wardrobe. Model Grace Bol sports hats, fascinators, helmets and organic orbs from the show, all while pulsing to bassy drumbeats in this dynamic new film. — Tumblr — Guest Curator Fia Yaqub Keep an eye on our new guest curator, Fia Yaqub, as she takes the reigns of the SHOWstudio Tumblr. Yaqub, an emerging fashion stylist and photographer, will be uploading found and self-generated content from from 1 to 7 December. While maintaining a provocative edge, Yaqub's aesthetic is dominated by raw, moody and erotic imagery. You can ask her questions about all her posts via the SHOWstudio Tumblr page. — Watch again — Book Club Vogue On Panel Discussion On-demand footage of our first 'Book Club' broadcast, which saw Lou Stoppard in conversation with the authors behind the first four 'Vogue On' books, is now live. Tune in to hear Judith Watt discuss Elsa Schiaparelli, Bronwyn Cosgrave dissect Coco Chanel, Charlotte Sinclair talk Christain Dior and Chloe Fox assess Alexander McQueen in this lively literary chat. — Essay — Fashion Fetish Alison Bancroft Writer and fashion critic Alison Bancroft delivers an insightful essay in response to Lily Donaldson's 'Fashion Fetish' film. The piece unpicks Donaldson's depiction of the 'furries' fetish group, arguing that the model denigrates the codes of traditional, accepted sexuality by refusing to take them seriously. The essay also explores issues such as the objectification of women, attitudes towards 'abnormal' sex and the pursuit of unconventional sexual expression. — Watch again — In Fashion Alexandra Shulman Those who missed the original live stream can now catch uncut footage of our 'In Fashion' interview with British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman. Shulman discusses her unexpected journey into publishing, the beast that fashion has become, her views on femininity and fashion and her proud moments at Vogue over the last decade. The on-demand footage is available for a limited time only - don't miss out. — Audio Mix — Fashion Mix Virginia Bates Leading the charge of the vintage resurgence, Virginia Bates and her self-styled store Virginia's Antiques champions eternal style. Aptly, for this week's 'Fashion Mix', the vintage doyenne casts her mind back to some of the greatest hits from the last century. From tracks by Miles Davis and Frank Sinatra to George Michael's 'Cowboys and Angels', Bates' playlist is a flurry of historic hits that conjure the ghosts of fashion's past. — From the Shop — Flora Piers Atkinson Piers Atkinson created this embroidered dragonfly wedding veil with peonies and cherry blossom during his recent LiveStudio, 'The Language of Flowers'. Drawing inspiration from Nick Knight's 'Flora' exhibition, Atkinson created a collection of three hats which were all made and modelled live in our studio. Now all the hats are available to buy from SHOWstudio Shop.

'The Language of Flowers' sees the milliner create not one but three headpieces live on camera, all while answering your questions. Each work will offer both a fresh take on the theme and a unique insight into his craft by showcasing techniques such as hat blocking and veil embroidery. Tune in from today, 21 November, to see Atkinson in action. — LiveStudio — Flora Carine Gilson The final instalment in our 'Flora' series of LiveStudios sees lingerie couturier Carine Gilson take up residence at SHOWstudio to create a full length sheer negligee, embroidered with a lace flower bouquet.

From playful modern hits by Azealia Banks to classics from Radiohead and Prince, there is something for everyone on this perky pick-me-up playlist. — Essay — Behind the Seams Anders Christian Madsen Our latest 'Behind The Seams' essay focuses on a season where relations between press and PRs threatened to eclipse the clothes on show thanks to a well-publicised showdown between Cathy Horyn and Hedi Slimane, and an ill-advised bitch slap at Zac Posen. Writer Anders Christian Madsen gives his take on the tension in this witty exploration of a PR system that centres on brand control and power play. — From the Shop — Rose Hat, 2012 Atsuko Kudo Atsuko Kudo's 'Rose Hat' - a key accessory in her latest collection, 'Restricted Love' - is now available to buy exclusively from SHOWstudio Shop. Drawing on retro sixties Hong Kong and the histories of orientalism, this completely unique floral headpiece is made entirely from latex and resembles a beautiful blossoming bud. — From the Archive — Fashion Film Joie De Vivre Encapsulating all the dark glamour, divine decadence and hedonistic joy of the roaring Twenties, Gareth Pugh's Autumn/Winter 2010 collection is a stylised silver and black Art Deco fantasy projected at breakneck speed into the twenty-first century.
