60 h. ago ‘Dior is drama’: Jonathan Anderson goes for the jugular at Paris fashion week

All eyes were on the Northern Irish designer’s debut – not just to reinvent Dior, but to jolt fashion itself out of its slumpIt was the biggest Paris fashion week moment in years. There were two best actress Oscar winners in the audience (Mikey Madison, Charlize Theron) and the daughter of a third (Sunday Rose Kidman Urban) on the catwalk. There were so many K-pop stars that the teenagers of Paris had packed out the Tuileries gardens from dawn.The French first ladies Brigitte Macron and Carla Bruni, both embroiled in news-making storylines of their own, chatted in the front row. The film-maker Luca Guadagnino designed the stage set around an upside-down glass pyramid directly invoking the Louvre, that shimmering icon of modern Paris. Continue reading...

4 d. ago Dress the part: London exhibition celebrates 60 years of film and TV period costumes

From Colin Firth’s wet shirt in Pride and Prejudice to Meryl Streep’s safari gear in Out of Africa, Cosprop’s outfits achieved cinematic realismWhen the costume designer John Bright founded the period costume house Cosprop in 1965, it was out of a desire to give the clothes seen in film and TV “a greater realism” than viewers had been used to previously. “I decided that if we made the stock as real as possible, it would be universal,” Bright says. “The truth is the truth for all times.”Over the intervening 60 years, that relatively simple mission led to the creation of some of the most notable costumes of all time: the Regency-era shirt that, once wet, turned Colin Firth into an instant heart-throb in 1995’s Pride and Prejudice; the safari gear worn by Meryl Streep in 1985’s Out of Africa, which ended up inspiring countless high-fashion runways; Johnny Depp’s dishevelled 1720s Pirates of the Caribbean suit, so artfully soiled that you can practically smell it through the screen.

7 d. ago High street heroes: how the humble charity shop is shifting clothes by getting creative

From fashion shows to secondhand socials, charity shops are now hubs of innovation when it comes to fashion waste – and even celebrities are jumping onboardThis was not your usual fashion show. First, I’ve rarely seen a more exuberant bunch of models – all unpaid volunteers living their best lives. Second, everything was secondhand, from a charity shop called Second Life in East Sussex. And third, half of it was sold that day, even the damaged pieces. Second Life’s annual fashion show, held over the summer, is just one of the creative ways the shop keeps its harder-to-sell clothing out of incinerators, landfill and developing countries’ illegal dumps.This “buy direct from the catwalk” concept is something charities are increasingly adopting. At London fashion week this month, Oxfam’s show, styled by thrift queen Bay Garnett, saw pop star Sam Ryder, activist Katie Piper and costume designer Sandy Powell take to the catwalk in preloved boiler suits, capes and wedding dresses, which we...
