— Exhibition SHOWcabinet: Anj Smith Don't miss artist Anj Smith's spellbinding SHOWcabinet exhibition. Open from today, Friday 21 November, the showcase delves into the mystical world of the painter, presenting a spectacular collection of objects that have served as a reference point for her work. Art pieces include Nick Knight's beautifully printed 'Flora' portfolio, Louis Wain's surreal 'Kaleidoscopic Cat' paintings, a garden headdress by Philip Treacy and a wondrously sculptural wax wind jacket worn by Isabella Blow. Smith's exquisite portrait painting entitled 'Apparatus' marks the centrepiece of the exhibition. Be sure to visit this spectacle at 19 Motcomb Street. — Interview — Subjective Kate Moss on Peter Lindbergh The latest episode of our 'Subjective' model interview series sees Nick Knight speak to Kate Moss about her experience working with Peter Lindbergh. 'Peter is a legend. He loves women but not in a weird sexy way. He loves who the woman is,' she says. Watch the exclusive interview now and revisit previous chats with Moss about her work with Juergen Teller, Corinne Day and more. — Essay — Girly Sarah Kathryn Cleaver Our 'Girly' series continues with a new essay from writer and researcher Sarah Kathryn Cleaver. Examining the current online obsession with Nabokov's Lolita, Cleaver explores Tumblr's nymphet community and explains the inherently problematic dichotomy that the trope represents; 'the co-existence of obsessive love and self-serving tyranny.' — Interview — In Fashion Sarah Mower The final edit of our 'In Fashion' interview with critic and Vogue contributor Sarah Mower is here. Watch as Mower discusses theatrical fashion, young designers and the rise of bloggers; 'I hate that thing of trying to set dinosaur critics against bloggers. I believe in everyone having an opportunity and if they're good, they'll rise,' she tells Lou Stoppard. — From the Shop — Echo Anj Smith To coincide with the opening of Anj Smith's SHOWcabinet exhibition, the artist has released this limited edition zinc etching. You can view this piece alongside the the vestiges, mementos, relics and artefacts that combine to inform Smith's meticulously executed worlds, at 19 Motcomb Street. — From the Archive — Compulsive Viewing: The Films of Guy Bourdin Fashion Films Gear up for the major Somerset House retrospective 'Guy Bourdin: Image Maker', with this gem from the SHOWstudio archive.
