— Print Peter Saville and Lou Stoppard In the latest instalment of our zine-focused 'Print' series, Peter Saville discusses New Order Untitled. Published under the helm of Factory Records in 1989, the tour-book-cum-magazine was a collaboration between Saville and photographer Donald Christie, with the intention to be released in tandem with New Order's 1989 US tour. The work never made it to print on time and a vast number of copies were lost after the dissolution of Factory Records. In this exclusive interview, SHOWstudio and Saville aim to bring the publication back into the public eye. 'Factory gave me the opportunity to do things the way that I would want them to be if I was the audience or the consumer,' laments Saville. Explore the magazine and the interview for yourself, and look back over the rest of the series. — Interview — Transformative Isamaya French and Nick Knight The most recent addition to our 'Transformative' series, which explores the make-up and hair artists that contribute to iconic images, features rising star Isamaya Ffrench in conversation with Nick Knight. The pair discuss the lego masks worn at Agi & Sam's A/W 15 menswear show. Ffrench identifies dreams as an inspiration. 'With dreams, you're not conflicted or manipulated by the events in your life you have to deal with when you're conscious,' she muses. — Interview — Transformative Val Garland and Nick Knight The acclaimed make-up artist Val Garland features in a new instalment of our 'Transformative' series. In a candid interview with Nick Knight, Garland discusses the ideas and processes behind the vibrant and explosive fashion film 'Make It Up', which debuted on SHOWstudio in 2002. 'The best thing about what we did was the edit. The edit and the music was absolutely superior because it became this mad, manic thing. And I loved it!' says Garland. — From The Shop — New arrivals Gosha Rubchinskiy, Xander Zhou and Cavempt Head over to our SHOWstudio / MACHINE_A e-shop to explore new season arrivals.
