About

The fashion film Readings, created by Nick Knight and Ruth Hogben, was shown as part of Paris Fashion Week in October 2007 - in place of a traditional catwalk show - to present Hussein Chalayan's Spring/Summer 2008 collection to the fashion fraternity. In this project, Nick Knight and Hussein Chalayan invited SHOWstudio.com viewers to propose audio treatments for a bricolage soundtrack curated by Antony Hegarty of Antony & The Johnsons in direct response to the clothes.

This project charts the creation of readings from conception to completion, showcasing the brief and varying treatments suggested by SHOWstudio viewers for Antony Hegarty, alongside a series of interviews with Chalayan himself and the final Readings fashion film created by Nick Knight and Ruth Hogben.
