— Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator
Nick Knight
SHOWstudio are proud to announce that Nick Knight received the Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator at this year's British Fashion Awards for his outstanding contribution to the global fashion industry. Knight started his career in 1982 with the publication of his photography book 'Skinheads' and has since worked with the biggest names in the industry. In 2013, Knight photographed the 'Isabella Blow: Fashion Galore!' exhibition catalogue. Alongside the catalogue, SHOWstudio conducted a series of interviews with Blow's main collaborators and friends. To celebrate both Blow and Knight, revisit the series.
