— There's Something About Mary Nick Knight, Mary Katrantzou, Karlie Kloss and Lily Donaldson Since Mary Katrantzou's earliest collections, SHOWstudio has admired and championed the London-based designer. To celebrate her brand's growth, Nick Knight collaborates with Katrantzou on a fashion film to showcase iconic pieces from her archive. Her prints - sometimes subtle, sometimes surrealist - come alive in motion, both on Karlie Kloss and Lily Donaldson, and in pioneering 3D animations. — Archive Footage — Unseen McQueen Nick Knight and Alexander McQueen Go behind-the-scenes on Nick Knight and Alexander McQueen's first collaborative venture, a series of images for the 1996 Florence Biennale. The photographs, which feature McQueen himself alongside model Carmen Hawk, were the designer's first step into image-making and art direction and reference prostitutes' calling cards. — Archive Footage — Unseen McQueen Nick Knight and Alexander McQueen Watch exclusive newly-edited footage of Alexander McQueen illustrating a selection of designs back in 2003. Nick Knight was commissioned by the CFDA to make a film that celebrated McQueen's vision - the resultant video shows the designer intently sketching looks from his A/W 03 'Scanners' and S/S 03 'Irere' shows. — Archive Footage — Unseen McQueen Nick Knight and Alexander McQueen In 2000, Nick Knight and Lee McQueen collaborated on their 'Angel' installation, exhibited in La Beauté en Avignon. The work was composed of 80 gallons of live dyed maggots arranged in the shape of an angelic face. Watch the newly-edited footage reveal the preparation for the installation. 'You get the most beautiful girl made out of the most grotesque thing,' McQueen explains. — Interview — Unseen McQueen Lou Stoppard and Nick Knight As part of our rolling 'Unseen McQueen' series, SHOWstudio editor Lou Stoppard interviewed Nick Knight about his long collaborative relationship with Alexander McQueen. Knight sheds light on his first collaboration with the late designer for the 1996 Florence Biennale and provides an insight into their 'Angel' installation for the 2000 Festival de Avignon. — Project — Print Paul Gorman, Bay Garnett, Tory Turk and Perry Ogden Don't miss out on our zine-focused project, 'Print'. Lou Stoppard questions the notion that print is dead, examining the life of modern magazines and cult classics from years gone by. Tory Turk, archivist of the world's biggest magazine collection, reflects on the history of print media, while Paul Gorman talks through his own extensive archive of rare publications including Nova, Twen and West One. Additionally, Bay Garnett provides a chance to look inside her cult thrift-centric zine, Cheap Date. — From the Shop — Logo Jacquard Tank Top Sibling Snap up Sibling's knit tank top, new in at our SHOWstudio/MACHINE-A e-store. Part of the London-label's A/W 15 collection, the pink vest features a contrasting 'SIBLING' logo in black on both the front and back and is finished with a navy elasticated neck.
