— Spring/Summer 2015 Fashion Films Gareth Pugh Long-term fashion film champion Gareth Pugh caused a stir for S/S 15 by eschewing his usual slot on the Paris schedule and kicking off New York Fashion Week with a dynamic installation made in collaboration with Lexus. The event featured three short films that combined Pugh's designs with performances by models choreographed by Wayne McGregor. SHOWstudio is proud to release the films - 'Megalith', 'Chaos', and 'Ascension' - alongside a gallery of images that show off Pugh's S/S 15 collection in detail. — Editorial — Sans Couture Nick Knight, Amanda Harlech and Alexander Fury Earlier this year Nick Knight, Amanda Harlech and Alexander Fury shot the beautiful 'Sans Couture' editorial for The Independent. You can now view the images and re-watch the full shoot! Playing with the literal idea of 'sans couture' - 'without sewing' - the editorial focused on veiling, wrapping and unwrapping the body, using garments from Chanel, Dior, Giambattista Valli and more. — Fashion Film — Girl Nick Knight and Rei Nadal This pioneering film was created by combining the visions of two directors; Nick Knight and Rei Nadal. It features fashion by over 30 different London designers including Meadham Kirchhoff, Shrimps, Ryan Lo and Christopher Kane and explores the trend for overt, almost cartoonish femininity and girlishness. The film was funded by the BFC Fashion Film initiative, which is sponsored by River Island. — Interview — Girly Arvida Bystorm Our 'Girly' project continues as Lou Stoppard talks to artist Arvida Bystrom about her hyper-feminine aesthetic. Bystrom discusses girlishness in the internet age as well as the inherent nature of femininity. 'Everyone, regardless of gender, can be fabulous and be serious in pink, glitter, dresses and makeup' she declares. — Audio Mix — Girly Rei Nadal Adding yet another facet to our ongoing project, you can now listen to the sounds of 'Girly', in the form of a playlist put together by 'Girl' co-director Rei Nadal and played during the shoot. Mirroring the opposing ideas of strength and vulnerability that exist within the film, Nadal has chosen tracks by the likes of No Doubt, Rhianna, Kelis and Tatu. — Collections — Paris Fashion Week S/S 15 Paris Fashion Week Panels and Coverage It's the last leg of fashion month and we've been covering the Paris collections in our usual manner with live discussions on key shows.

This week's interview is with Kate Moss who talks about her involvement in Alexander McQueen's A/W 06 show - although Moss did not walk the runway, she appeared in the form of a ghostly projection. 'I really miss him. He was a massive, massive world,' she said of the late designer. — Interview — Transformative Sam McKnight 'Transformative' seeks to reconsider contemporary fashion imagery from the point of view of those behind the scenes; make-up artists, hairdressers and stylists. This week Nick Knight talks to Sam McKnight about working with Princess Diana on her December 1991 British Vogue cover. — From The Archive — In Fashion Lucinda Chambers It's Paris Fashion Week! What better time to revisit one of our greatest ever 'In Fashion' interviews - Lou Stoppard's chat with British Vogue fashion director Lucinda Chambers? Chambers discussed everything from applying to art school to her relationship with Grace Coddington.
