SHOWstudio/Swarovski
Fashion has defined the appearance and character of every important moment in musical history. And in turn, fashion continues to draw on that heady heritage for inspiration season after season. To celebrate this inextricable link between musical performance and fashion exhibitionism, SHOWstudio and Swarovski are partnering on Fashion DJs: an ambitious, three-day music and fashion event to be held at the legendary Abbey Road Studios on 9, 10 and 11 July 2008. Fashion DJs will be broadcast live on SHOWstudio.com and swarovskisparkles.tv and also transmitted via radio for London listeners, on 87.7FM.

Tokyo Style Clash was your chance to battle it out and really see if you were 'HOT or NOT?'. From the 14th until the 16th October, a roster of photographers were set up in the front window of BEAMS' store in Harajuku, Shibuya-Ku, Tokyo, waiting to take the portraits of anyone who thought they might be a style contender! All photographs were then used to create an interactive game to be played on SHOWstudio by our viewers and an invited panel including Undercover designer Jun Takahashi, Nick Knight, great Dane Peter Jensen, model Lily Cole and Paris fashion princess Sarah Colette. So it was over to our celebrity panel and the SHOWstudio viewers to play the game to decide who really had the hottest look in Tokyo!!

Model Lily Cole acted as your insider guide to Paris Fashion Week.
