Fantastic Toiles

Launched on 01 February 2023

Exploring the potentials of contemporary fashion in a space that juxtaposes the prying eyes and predatory ways of the industry, we invited the fabulous Nazir Mazhar of the even more fantastic Fantastic Toiles - a collective of copious creativity, including the likes of Leo Carlton, Jawara Alleyne and Gentle Mutilation - to a two-day residency at SHOWstudio on 30 January - 1 February 2023. In a series of interviews and live streamed fashion shoot with Nick Knight, dive into their worlds as we invite you into their creative processes and more.
