— Live Shoot Nick Knight, Victoria's Secret and Sophia Neophitou Nick Knight and Sophia Neophitou's 'Pin-ups' shoot for 10 Magazine resumes today. The pair are re-interpreting traditional motifs of erotic imagery with the help of new 3D scanning technology. Earlier this month, Knight shot models such as Ming Xi and Jourdan Dunn, and today, 7 November, part two of the shoot kicks off with Victoria's Secret 'Angels' Lily Donaldson and Lily Aldridge. Tune in to watch the shoot live. — Films and Essays — 1914 Now Alison Moloney, Walter Van Beirendonck and more '1914 Now. Four perspectives on fashion curation' is a film installation and collaboration between curators and filmmakers. Four curators - Walter Van Beirendonck, Amy de la Haye, Judith Clark and Kaat Debo - were invited by LCF's Alison Moloney to express a moment in fashion or dress from 1914. Each curator collaborated with a filmmaker - including Bart Hess, James Norton, Katerina Athanasopoulou and Marie Schuller - and the completed films along with accompanying essays are now available to view exclusively on SHOWstudio. — Essay — Girly Morna Laing Our 'Girly' film and essay series continues with an article on Meadham Kirchhoff's 'The Wolf in Lamb's Clothing' collection by the London College of Fashion's Morna Laing. The researcher and lecturer ponders the political messages of the duo's famed S/S 12 show, exploring the ideas behind the 'pastel-clad Courtney-Love-alikes' and 'pirouetting girl-child ballerinas.' Read the work now. — Essay — Girly Lou Stoppard The latest addition to our 'Girly' project is an explosive essay by Lou Stoppard on 'Basic Bitches'. Musing on the identity crisis seemingly engulfing young people - 'a generation that has nothing to say for itself other than LOL' - and questioning why women want to be girls, Stoppard explores how this regressive state is reflected in contemporary fashion and culture, citing Amy Childs, Zoella and Moschino. — From the Blog — Guest Bloggers Iain R. Webb, Mandi Lennard, Sarah Piantadosi and more Browse through our blog for posts from our esteemed guest bloggers.
