Episode 01: 'INSPIRATION'

In an exclusive one-on-one interview filmed in December 2008, award-winning British designer Louise Goldin speaks about the initial ideas and inspiration behind her forthcoming collection.

Working backwards from Louise Goldin's show at London Fashion Week in February 2009, Unravelled reveals every facet in the development of her Autumn/Winter 2009 collection, deconstructing her creative process through ten weekly episodes. Recording months of work and featuring extensive in-depth interviews and intimate footage from her studio and factories in Milan - much shot by Goldin herself - Unravelled pulls Louise Goldin's experimental and innovative work apart at its seams, offering unique access inside the creativity one of fashion's most exciting new talents.
