Sometimes it’s about the clothes, sometimes it’s about the designers and then again sometimes it’s all about the models. As part of their Fashion in Motion series London’s V&A museum is hosting a boutique-style performance where Olivier Saillard creative director of Palais Galliera- one of my favourite Paris museums- will explore the evolution of the fashion pose working with a team of models. Catch it at the V&A on Friday 20th January or on the live V&A Channel broadcast at 15:00 & 17:00 GMT.

And if you still want more there’s just time to catch the extended run of Carmen: A Life in Fashion at London College of Fashion‘s Fashion Space Gallery until 31st January celebrating Carmen Dell’Orefice’s 80th birthday and her amazing modelling career which spans from when she was spotted aged 13, had her first Vogue cover in 1947 and continues today.
