Dear Shaded Viewers,
Before the shows began Robb Young and I decided to check out a few of the shops. John Rocha just opened his new shop about two weeks ago.
John Rocha 15a Dover Street. Robb Young in front of Dover Street Market.
Then we went over to register for London Fashion Week, but we arrived too late. We visited with our friends at London Fashion Week instead. Tomorrow we will register.
The LFW team for the international press and buyers and Robb Young with LFW’s Barbara Grispini and then we all went over to the Unconditional show.
Multidisciplinary Philip Stephens designs the collection Unconditional, is an agent for designers and has a shop Concrete.
Lau from stylebubble.com after Unconditional. Our friend from LFW, Barbara Grisipini has a wonderful uncle that as a present for LFW provided her with an amazing driver who took us to our next destination, the SHOWstudio interactive video installation The Replenishing Body. Later Judy Blame and I danced to fill our squares. This was a rare moment as I never dance anymore. We had fun. I hope that I will still be smiling when I see what we did. He was looking very serious and I could not keep a straight face.
Daniel Pemberton is a music maker, here he interacts with the Replenishing Body video installation.
The way it worked was you were in front of a screen which was broken up into squares, you choose to be in one square or all of the squares, a video camera filmed you and you had about one second to contribute to the project. At the same time that you were filmed you were projected on the wall.
Robb Young and Nick Knight’s family
Barbara, Mandi, Patty, Eduardo, Robb and Philipp.
Nick’s kids are the coolest, they wanted to meet the ‘group’.
Fred Butler..Judy Blame and Penny Martin
It was really funny , as we were driving to the Tank party, there was a knock on the car window and there was Mark Eley on his motorcycle. Eley Kishimoto show is tomorrow and Robb could not get over how it was dark, the windows were dark and still Mark could tell from the rear window that I was in the car. We loved seeing him but I was too slow to take out my camera.
Judy Blame, Dave Baby and Eduardo at SHOWstudio and Matthew, Levi Palmer and Daniel Lismore at the Tank Party.
Barbara’s driver took me back to the hotel, thank you Barbara, and they stayed on to party through the night.
Later,
Diane
