— Round-up Panels On-demand footage Review the season with on-demand footage of both the couture and menswear round-up panels! Expert panelists have commented on the fashion from London, Milan and Paris. Listen to the encyclopaedic knowledge of Alex Fury, Charlie Porter, Jodie Kidd, Gordon Richardson and many more. The shows have sparked rife debates about the mystery surrounding the couture customer, the spectacle of the show overshadowing the clothing and the lacklustre feeling from Milan this season. — Collections — Fashion Illustration Kukula's Couture Over the past week, our resident couture collections artist Kukula has drawn a series of beautiful imagery depicting looks from the couture shows. From Giambattista Valli's romanticism to the folkish raciness proposed by Ulyana Sergeenko, Kukula has captured Paris couture designs with a fantastical twist. — Exhibition — SHOWcabinet Iris van Herpen Firm couture favourite Iris van Herpen's SHOWcabinet is only open for a few more days! Featuring her SHOWstudio-crafted 'Splash' dress and other key pieces from the Dutch contemporary, the show examines the hotly debated collision of art and science, spotlighting key artworks that are reflective of this stance. Immerse yourself in van Herpen's revolutionary vision now, at our gallery space in 19 Motcomb Street, SW1X 8LB! — Tumblr — Tumblr Guest Curation Alex Fury At the beginning of every month, SHOWstudio hands over complete creative control of our Tumblr page for seven days. This month saw SHOWstudio alum Alex Fury give the page a couture make-over. Fury has been in Paris soaking up the finest fashion, whilst offering candid shots from the shows, general musings, personal greatest hits, and pithy quotes. Fury finished the week by responding to fashion questions from across the world. Check out the couture-themed takeover now. — From the Archive — David Weightman Ordinary Taken from our archive is a series of images presented by David Weightman that are at first glance ordinary, and at a second glance much less so. Weightman's objective was to photograph 'ordinary people doing ordinary things', hence he decided to shoot the images on overcast weekends or Wednesday afternoons in order to capture points in time during which nothing extraordinary would happen. The outcome is Weightman's alternate reality, where time folds and movement overlaps. — Interview — In Fashion Iris Van Herpen Following Iris Van Herpen's intricate couture show in Paris, watch the edited footage of our 'In Fashion' interview with the Dutch couturiere. Lou Stoppard asked Van Herpen all about her inspiration and motivation, her brand and her unique fusion of old-meets-new techniques. Watch the insightful interview now. — From the Shop — Micro Couture Shoes Iris van Herpen These 'Micro Couture Shoes', taken from Iris van Herpen's S/S 12 collection, take inspiration from the designer's studies into microscopic organisms. Fusing calf hair with a fibreglass base, the shoes have nine microbial-like tendrils that support the base of the foot like stilettos. These stunning shoes are a perfect example of the innovative techniques that Van Herpen applies within her work. Purchase them now and own a piece of fashion history!
