For me, Yves Saint Laurent and Louis Vuitton are two of the loftiest bastions of French fashion - and it's fitting that they should hold the press presentations of their 2010 Resort collections not only on the same day but a mere stone's throw away from each other. It... [more]
Our SHOP Press Day is now officially over - frankly, we're more used to attending than throwing these shindigs here at SHOWstudio, but I'm pleased to say we did the format justice! After visiting his resort collection Press Day barely a month ago, the lovely Peter Jensen paid a visit... [more]

After months of sifting through end-of-season sales remnants, the arrival of the new collections is always an exhilarating experience, not least at Dover Street Market.
