SHOWS FILM WEEK S/S 2005: PETER JENSEN

Peter Jensen

The sole question that perplexed those lucky enough to have witnessed Peter Jensen's utterly memorable S/S '05 'show on ice' was 'why had nobody done it before?' Shot from the rink side, this short film, 'Tonya', captured the magic of the young skaters in action, showing fashion as it is experienced in everyday life; in motion.

The final film short in a week-long series marking how motion image has inveigled its way into mainstream modes of representing fashion, 'Tonya' celebrated the infamous ice queen who fell from grace and inspired Jensen's collection.
