Kate Moss is one of the famous faces in Nick Knight's latest collection of interviews for his 'Subjective' series. Tracing the stories behind some of the most iconic images of contemporary fashion photography and giving voice to the often unheard model's side.
As queen of the 90s grunge fashion scene, it is only fitting that Knight speaks with Kate about the 1993 Calvin Klein campaign, shot by then boyfriend Mario Sorrenti, which catapulted her to the status of supermodel we know her as today.
The madness that is Fashion
Week is still in full swing. So far we've seen the fashion worlds of
Copenhagen, New York, London and Milan. And with Paris Fashion Week due to
start tomorrow, it’s not over yet!
As we travel the fashion
globe, we sample a little bit of what makes each fashion week so special and
interesting. At Copenhagen we witness european minimalism at its very best. In
New York we are presented with chic city fashion. London delivers cutting edge
and original collections whilst Milan presents the ultimate in high end luxury
fashion. Each is so unique and that is why we love them all!
At NAVY, we have always had
a lot of love for Calvin Klein and at NYFW this month we were not
disappointed. Delivering a collection of sleek minimalism infused with the
nineties grunge influence seen on many of the catwalks these last two years. We
love the chunky knitted jumpers presented in this collection which were teamed
with lots of textured layers, sheer calf-length skirts, a muted colour palate and some
bad ass lace up boots. Winter fashion with attitude.
Our other favourite from
NYFW was Tadashi Shoji. A breathtaking AW14 collection of romantic
yet edgy lace dresses which captured ornate details and had majestic velvet
touches. Velvet is set to continue as big trend into the next year as well as
the oversized capes we witnessed on many catwalks this season.

Next the fashion pack
descended upon London. Renowned for presenting the most dynamic and creative of
collections, LFW is our favourite fashion week of all! Here we witnessed the
gothic brilliance of John Rocha’s Autumn Wintercollection.
Dark, romantic and full of volume! Rocha’s enduring interest in structure,
layering and texture make his show a key one watch each and every season.
LFW is also well know
for presenting a fantastic opportunity for young designers to present their
first collections on the world’s stage. New talent was everywhere this season
but the creativity and flair of Mariana Jungmann's debut collection
impressed us no end! Her unusual techniques for creating laser cut lace and
structured silhouettes shows a fresh and undeniably contemporary take on the
boundaries of fashion. Surely one to watch!

Throughout the whole of
this Fashion Week season there is one collection we have been desperately waiting to
see. Dolce & Gabbana deliver a couture experience like no
other and are arguably one of the most influential brands within fashion
today. Having seen sneak peeks from their AW14 collection on the likes of
Beyoncé in the past few weeks, we knew we were in for some truly stunning lace
delights! D&G presented the innocence of their fairytale forest with medieval themes and of course, an underlying sexiness long associated with the brand. Teaming gothic black lace with illustrated skirts and knits covered in whimsical cartoon creatures. Etherial lace glamour for Autumn Winter 2014.

But with Paris Fashion week only just beginning, it isn’t over yet. We’re always keeping an eye on the trend updates and finding new style inspiration but without a doubt, lace will be sticking around for yet another season! Total lace loving.
