'Corset' by Detolle for Mainbocher
Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter, repeat.
Sound familiar? Oh, I almost forgot... Instagram, Instagram, Instagram.
Now don't take this the wrong way; my long-term relationship with social media is fabulous!
We've ALWAYS liked each other and spend every waking moment together (literally), it's just that every now and again I can feel my mind's intellect slowly slipping, doomed to forever be replaced by a trendy little app (iBrain? You saw it here first...)
Urgh. Someone give her a book!
Acting fast before my brain truly turns into 21st century mush; I think a good old dose of something culturally stimulating is becoming long overdue and by that I mean it's time to get lost in the chicest depths of London's V&A museum this September.
(iPhone calendars open?)
Come September 6th, the capital's Vicky and Albert will swing open the doors to its latest exhibition 'Horst: Photographer of Style' featuring the complete body of work, plus an extra 250 exclusive photos, by the late German and fashion photography's greatest ever happy snapper - Horst P. Horst.
"Horst... produced some of the most famous and evocative images of the 20th century. This exhibition will shine a light on all aspects of his long and distinguished career"
Showcasing works from a sixty-year strong career in the fashion biz; the collection includes haute couture pieces, film footage, private sketches and all ninety of those covers for Vogue magazine.
And if that wasn't enough to enlighten your sartorial mindset, the exhibition also aims to delve into the creative process behind some of Horst's most famous images.
Social what now? See, there's no better remedy for absent mindedness than sophisticated education.
So that's May, June, July, August.. not that I'm wanting to wish anyone's life away....
The ideal show in an ideal setting. Did I forget to mention that the in-house café also do the most delectable almond croissant?
| The exhibition will run through to January 4th 2015 |
