Tuesday 30th October Archive photo

Andy Mcgregor just found this photo from a few summers ago when we were assisting Andy Hillman.............making a curtain look like a couture gown for a Tim Walker shoot for British Vogue...........so I remember that I indeed have turned my hand to couture in the past............also fond memories of covering 2 vintage cars entirely in Argylle cardigans to make them look knitted..........

Sunday 28th October 2008 "DoomBox"

I wasn't able to go to BoomBox last night for the Halloween Goth themed "DoomBox"............not that I was upset if anyone knows my abhorrence for wearing black!.............but I was sad to miss Nicola Formichetti (& friend) wearing some pieces that I customised for him a while ago for Another Man Magazine.............Im glad that he is getting a 2nd use out of the glitzy army helmets and goggles................

Saturday 27th October V&A Museum

"The Golden Age Of Couture" is an exquisite exhibition jam packed with all things couture to marvel over. One account of an original Balenciaga devotee was fantastic.........a countess had everything made by the couturier even down to her gardening shorts.............. and locked herself in her bedroom for 3 days on his retirement..............
