Over April 2005, Simon Foxton styled 30 models as 'living magazine pages', seated in front of a webcam. Via telephone, the 'Sittings' models could take questions from a curious public watching via the Internet. This project details not only each outfit of this thirty-day editorial but also a monograph of Foxton's trailblazing styling career through text and image.
