I was not prepared for yesterdays press event at the V&A, Ballgowns: British Glamour Since 1950. Or rather, I was not prepared to be as blown away by it as I was. I knew - because Id seen in the ...

This version gives me the chills: Im not kidding, that film has had such an impact on me, I cant stop singing Bob Marley songs in my head. I was having a long coffee chat with a good friend yesterday...
We just saw MARLEY today. What a film. Have you seen it? Id love to hear your thoughts. What an incredible man. He only walked on this earth for 36 years, but he packed a lot of living into that life...
Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but thats no matter - tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther... And...
My childhood friend, Leslie - a status that became elevated to best friend around the age of 14 - used to have this game. One month ago today, shed say, or one year... it was, I guess, to get things ...

Art imitating art imitating art: I shot these at the press preview for BRITISH DESIGN 1948-2012 at the V&A. If you can imagine, its this massive exhibition, and I had entered into a dark time war...

First: it is glorious here in London. Unbelievable. We went SWIMMING - outdoors - this weekend, in Surrey. Or rather, I did. He lounged in the sun, like a cat. Sods law: lately when Im out, deliberat...
The sincerest form of flattery. When I did this series, in January 2009, I hadnt heard of the Sartorialist, didnt follow blogs, just knew Bill Cunninghams series in the Sunday New York Times Style se...
On this, the day of the UK launch for the brilliant documentary on Bill Cunningham: Bill Cunningham New York - I thought Id go back to my blogs infancy. On three years ago today, just around the Ides...
