FROM THE SHOP PETER JENSEN & MARY MILES MINTER & MILDRED & OLGA & NANCY..., 2011
Published to coincide with the occasion of the exhibition Peter Jensen's Muses at the Denmark Design Museum and in advance of the Victoria and Albert's latest Fashion In Motion, this book catalogues London-based fashion designer Peter Jensen's unique working process and his multitude of multi-dimensional muses. Unique, highly changeable, perplexing, this book unfolds his process from inspiration to creation. Whether taking his aesthetic cue from cosmetics tycoon Helena Rubinstein, disgraced Olympic skater Tonya Harding or soul singer Nina Simone, Jensen's tongue-in-cheek sense of chic prevails, as evidenced by this tome mapping ten years of passion for fashion.

Shot in early 2011 in New York City, this video gave the first taste of a new visual identity for the already-iconic performer - alongside winning a slew of awards, most recently the MTV European Music Award for Best Video. View it again, in all its glory. [more]

Mother of Pearl Dinner at Senkai Art meeting fashion is no new idea - Charles Frederick Worth compared himself to Delacroix back in the 1860s, while Elsa 'Schiap' Schiaparelli pulled in the Surrealists to inspire and occasionally collaborate on her witty interwar couture creations - the finest of which will grace the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute come next year (albeit probably excluding the lobster-embroidered frock splattered with very real mayonnaise by Salvador Dali).
