Manchester's King of Woolworths, Jon Brooks, debuts his live act at the ICA tonight to promote l'Illustration Musicale, his new album, and prove that he's more than a one-adtune-wonder. 8pm. The Mall, SW1. £8.

Although the Bolero-clad Venus may have paved the way, a certain Mr Hedi Slimane has taken the notion of chic sounds further.

F Communications is releasing Flexion - F. Me by Readymade, which is a compilation of all the music from the Dior men's Autumn/Winter 2002 and men's Spring/Summer 2003 shows.

So now you can all recreate the buzzing excitement of sitting front row at a directional menswear catwalk extravaganza. Which is nice.

However, the CD doesn't come with a troupe of wonky-haired skinny boy models. And that may or may not prove to be a shame.

This little aural episode comes hot on the kitten heels of Colette No 5, the recent CD by the ridiculously hip Parisian boutique. Whatever next, Primark producing an album of speed-ragga classics?

Flexion - F. Me by Readymade
Soon available online from F Communications.
