| CURRENT TO LEE, WITH LOVE, NICK | |

 Celebrating the awe-inspiring imagination and groundbreaking designs of Lee Alexander McQueen, the latest fashion film by Nick Knight pays tribute to McQueen's sensational creations, stellar career, and most importantly to the man himself. Directed by Nick Knight and set to an exclusive soundtrack by Björk, this one-off film features a painstakingly curated selection of landmark McQueen pieces drawn from his sixteen-year career. A tribute to the burning creativity of a designer who undoubtedly ranks as the greatest of his generation, this fashion film is breathtaking, mesmerising and utterly unique - just like McQueen himself.

| CURRENT IN FASHION, JOSEPH ALTUZARRA | |

 Four collections on since his debut, Joseph Altuzarra has become a hot frontrunner amongst a new breed of young New York designers currently garnering the prized support of fashion’s most powerful movers and shakers. Altuzarra sat down with our Fashion Director Alexander Fury to discuss his life and work ahead of his S/S 2011 show - and our video edit has just been launched on site.The next addition to this ever-expanding series is style icon and 'fashion maniac' Anna Dello Russo, street-style patron saint, obsessive clothing collector and Editor-at-Large of Vogue Japan. Dello Russo made a pit-stop during the last London collections to discuss her life, career and wardrobe - and, as we move into S/S 2011, her intimate one-on-one seems a fitting close to this year of In Fashion programming.

| COMING UP THE RAVEN | |
| | |
 The latest of our fashion film editorials looks at the darker side of A/W 2010, taking inspiration from Negredo - a 'black blacker than the blackest black' and first element of the mythological process of alchemy - and its title from the Edgar Allen Poe poem The Raven. Photographer and filmmaker Jez Tozer works with actress Billie Piper to create a filmic short that is a melancholic and emotional reflection of the sombre mood of restraint so evident for next season. The deeper side to the little black dress - The Raven launches this Friday at 15:00 GMT. | |
| FROM THE SHOP UNTITLED, 2010 | |
| | |
 Our Florist exhibition has encouraged an array of fashion creatives to wish us 'Happy Birthday' in flowers - but, for the Japan-born and Paris-based house of Kenzo, floral abundance is second nature. Witness the latest offering of Kenzo creative director Antonio Marras for our show - a hand-painted array of billowing flowers grasped within two hands. Created in Marras' Sardinian home, the abstract painting reclines within a vintage case that cleverly compliments the muddy, organic tones of the floral image and also underscores the nomadic inspirations behind Kenzo's celebrated collections. Fitting really, as the esteemed house also celebrates its fortieth year in business. Blooming marvellous! [more] | |
