High art, low design

If you happen to be in London these days, you shouldn't miss the current exhibition at the Victoria& Albert Museum about Postmodernism - Style& Subversion 1970-1990. The exhibition leads you through 3 rooms and shows you in a clever, noisy but elegant presentation what postmodernism means and where it comes from. Think Talking Heads, Laurie Anderson, Grace Jones, the radical design groups Memphis or Studio Alchymia..think MTV!

London College of Fashion

Sarah Atkinson, chief examiner of the awarding body at the London College of Fashion hosted at Sweat Shop Selfridges a special workshop showcasing her skills in fashion design. For the ones who missed this one, Sarah will soon come to Paris to host a masterclass in Sweat Shop Paris.
