Looking for something to occupy yourself between shows at London Fashion Week? There is still time to pop along to the Guy Bourdin: Image Maker exhibition and grab an insight into some of fashion photography's most iconic images.

Conveniently housed right in the heart of LFW at Somerset House, you can easily drop by and immerse yourself in the surreal, the colourful and the provocative world of Guy Bourdin.


The largest exhibition of Bourdin's work ever held in the UK, it is the perfect opportunity to witness some of his most famous images alongside the lesser know work of his 40 year career as a top fashion photographer.

Viewing this retrospective of Boudin's photography as a whole, you can't avoid the sense of quite how innovative and boundary pushing his work truly was. Especially when considering that much of this work comes from the late 70s. When publishing abstract and sexually provocative fashion photography as part of high profile campaigns or even amongst the pages of Vogue was uncommon and controversial.

Be sure to immerse yourself in the 360° cinema of Boudin's bold fashion films from the same era. A new and unheard of medium for fashion imagery at the time, capturing the glamourous femme fatales so iconic within Guy Bourdin's but in a whole new light.

If you're not in London for LFW, don't worry. Guy Bourdin: Image Maker is on until March 15th so you can still stop by even after the buzz of fashion week has passed.
