Central Saint Martins BA show

Yesterday the assessment show was held at Charing Cross road. Points of interest included fairytale theme and lots of umbrellas dramatic make up. Dolls and fantasy was a strong theme. The menswear and print was also excellent which even included a huge box walking down the catwalk. The show was stunning and the photos are as follows

In My Opinion...

This is the most beautiful of all bands around...a few pictures from Tuesday night seeing Dirty Pretty Things at The Forum in Kentish Town...

The Forum...Kentish Town...Dirty Pretty Things(22/05/06)

As the cloudy head clears, and flicking through the memory on my camera I see that yes Carl Barat and his new gang were looking as good as they did in Cambridge. Their performance was tight, storming through the songs which were on the album and some much appreciated Libertines songs; not the same with out Pete but nevertheless we will have to get used to the fact that this would be a miraculous performance and most likely never to happen.

I get in the thick of it, pushing and shoving sweat pours from everyone, smiles and jumping. This is what going to a gig is all about. The music is hard and fast, all the musicians are playing with so much effort, in contrary to the melodical and softer approach used by Doherty, maybe due to the complete opposite effects on either’s drug of choice.

The consensus when I look around is of happiness, hot and sticky happiness. I personally can’t wait for Bloodthirsty Bastards, a song which races through tempos, slow and fast and slow and fast...and it is a particular favourite of mine, Deadwood is the first track to be played and I hear this will be the next single as well. You Fucking Love it is another track that drives the audience into a frenzy, I am sure if I lifted my feet up I would be able stay in the same position, I get pushed from side to side with the crowd getting ever closer to the stage with every chord, never loosing sight of snarling Carl erratic Anthony Rossamundo and Didz who is right over the other side of The Forum's stage I can see in waistcoat and shirt, not as sweaty in leathers...and Gary, is behind the drum kit so I assume he is sweaty?

I loose sight of Scarlet and I am lost in between boys with their tops off, the heat is not yet unbearable but I feel a tad pang of jealousy for if I did this it would probably be indecent exposure and I would most likely get sexually assaulted as the teenage boy hormones are practically buzzing with the anticipation of the crowd surf. They mosh and they surf. Moshing is great, I give as good as I get…and the some girl bends double pushing her bottom into the crowd behind her, I assume as to give her more room...then what I ask are you doing at the front of a gig young lady. One of my extreme pet hates.

The gig seems shorter than at Cambridge and as far as the venue and intimacy are concerned, Cambridge outweighs. The Forum is a lovely venue, I was very impressed but with the Cambridge gig the size of The Junction was a lot smaller and there seemed to be a lot more interaction with the crowd, giving out beers cigarettes coming right into the frenzied crowd, but this time around I enjoyed being part of the rabble and also standing further back and appreciating the music as I could do that here at the forum.

Final songs include, France and I get Along, some Libertines classics. Then the gig is over, sweat ridden and smiling we stumble into the night, content with what I have seen, Boys in skinny jeans, it was a sea of leather bomber jackets and waistcoats, and long hair was stuck to foreheads looking decidedly soaked. The scene is not evolving, fashion wise, the boys are still pretty and the girls, well we all want the same sort of boy, in a band and poetical, it would help if they had long hair pretty eyes and wore leathers too…maybe there needs to be some change around here. Summer restricts the wearing of skinny jeans and leathers; let’s see what the indie kids do now?

New up and coming talent Ellie Jauncey..

Ellie Jauncey is just finishing her BA degree at Manchester Metropolitan University where she has studied Textiles specialising in knitwear. Her final collection is a beautiful range of delicately made knitwear. She has created a range which looks entirely unique, each piece is different and has a quirky characteristic demonstrating Ellie's flare for individuality. Lola and Scarlet have both become big fans of her work, and not suprisingly Ellie has just been offered a contract in London with Nicky Dupont (incase you didn't know Nicky Dupont is a hugely renowned and respected designer within the knitwear industry.) It is definitely safe to say watch this space, and you heard it from us first.
Below are some pictures of her final collection, which both Lola and Scarlet were astounded by... let us know what you think.
