Fifteen Minutes Of Fashion

While all eyes usually focus on the flurry of the catwalk presentation, Fifteen Minutes of Fashion turns the lens of the designers themselves. Taken during the Spring/Summer 2009 London Fashion Week presentations, the diptych images of 'Fifteen Minutes of Fame' capture leading British designers five minutes before their show, and five minutes after their creations exited the runway.

About

Andy Warhol famously coined the 'Fifteen Minutes of Fame' cliche, but only in fashion do those fifteen minutes come around every six months. While all eyes usually focus on the flurry of the catwalk presentation, Fifteen Minutes of Fashion not only turns the lens backstage, but on the designers themselves. Taken during the Spring/Summer 2009 London Fashion Week presentations, these diptych images capture leading British designers five minutes before their show, and five minutes after their creations exited the runway. Curated by Magda Keaney and featuring the striking photography of Giles Price, the resulting portraits offer an arresting before-and-after contrast reflecting each designer's behind-the-scenes response to the realisation and reception of their latest collection.
