— adidas x SPEZIAL film Gary Aspden, Adidas, Bill Ryder-Jones, &SON The third film for Gary Apsden's adidas Originals x SPEZIAL range mixes inspiration from the company's European roots and Aspden's own personal experiences of the brand. Made with Nick Griffiths and &SON, the film centres around musician Bill Ryder-Jones, following him on a journey that encompasses the music culture of his Merseyside home and the natural beauty and architecture of Innsbruck. — Interview — Sportswear Gary Aspden Motivated by the prevalence of sporty shapes on the runway, our new series, 'Sportswear', invites experts to reveal the history and subtleties behind key garments, from the hoodie to the cap. The first instalment sees Gary Aspden dissect the origins and influences of the iconic Stan Smith adidas trainer; a shoe he dubs, 'the ultimate design classic of that company and possibly of any brand.' — Editorial — Amor Molly Bair, Amanda Harlech and Nick Knight Peruse the final imagery and shoot footage from Nick Knight and Amanda Harlech's 'Amor' story for V Magazine.

Garland says of this 'iconic shot', 'It's very simple, classic beautyl; it's just the model, the angle, Sølve's beautiful photography, it just works.' — Essay — Behind The Seams Katharine Zarrella Our 'Behind The Seams' series continues with a new essay by V Magazine's Katharine Zarrella. Stating that A/W 15 is a season full of decay and mourning, Zarrella examines the macabre relationship between fashion and death, delving inside the minds of Gareth Pugh, Rei Kawakubo and Thom Browne. — Fashion Film — Mother Alyx and Nick Knight See Matthew Williams' debut Alyx collection in action in this millennial-filled film directed by Nick Knight. Shot in the seaside town of Brighton and in his London studio, the work stars Tallulah and Scout Willis and features a custom soundtrack featuring lyrics from Danzig's 'Mother'. — From the Shop — Trainers Adidas x Raf Simons Alongside the first instalment of our 'Sportswear' series, the latest Adidas x Raf Simons collaboration has landed at our SHOWstudio / MACHINE-A e-store.
