— Proud to Protest Love is a human right In response to the increasing crackdown on LGBTI rights in Russia and in support of Amnesty International's campaign to raise awareness of human rights abuses in the country, SHOWstudio joined forces with Gareth Pugh to ask figures from across the fashion community to fight against the prejudice and violence directed towards the LGBTI community. Pugh and longtime collaborator Nick Knight, SHOWstudio's founder, asked respected designers, journalists, models and stylists, from Kate Moss and Giles Deacon to Henry Holland and Stephen Jones, to demonstrate their opposition to homophobia by participating in striking 20-second short videos. The first films in the series launch today, 14 February, to coincide with the beginning of London Fashion Week, which, of course, takes place while the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics are on. Also launching today is a film by Pugh and filmmaker Ruth Hogben. The work is a meditation on the themes of chaos and control, illusion and propaganda, and the need for a unified response to Russia's recent actions. Ultimately it is a call to speak with one voice: love is a human right. Show your support by creating your own balaclava clip and posting it on Twitter @SHOWstudio @AmnestyUK #ProudToProtest
