The Left Forearm by Sølve Sundsbø

We're already into the third week of our latest far-reaching fashion film season The Fashion Body - the seventh film in our series comes from leading image-maker Sølve Sundsbø, who contributes a film focussed on the left forearm. Fashion for the forearm perhaps leaves you stumped, but the ever inventive Sundsbø came up with a thousand fashion alternatives - quite literally - flicking through a myriad permutations f this extremity at breakneck speed. From the conventional gloves, bangles and cuffs of many a fifties couture sitting through our modern obsessions with tattoos and body-modification, and even a few pumped-up gym-bunnies for good measure, this film is a riposte to all those who complain of the homogeny of the contemporary fashion scene: although undoubtedly fashion-focussed, no two of these bodies are exactly alike.
