Last Night a DJ Saved My Wardrobe Malfunction

 

There is no doubt that Fashion and Music like to snuggle up together like a couple of hormone-crazed teens after a bottle of cider and a fat jazz cigarette. "I lurrrve you," you can hear them purr over and over like the sound-track to a Dior Homme show. 

Think I'm exaggerating? Tune into 87.7 FM today, Thursday and Friday from 12pm till midnight, or you can watch the love-in unfold on Nick Knight's SHOWstudio , as Naomi Campbell (sans boxing gloves, please God), Gareth Pugh, Giles Deacon and other legendary fashion folk spin their fave discs while chatting about, well, music and fashion. And let’s not forget the art installations, Swarovski sponsorship (check out their one-off set of pink crystal headphones lending the affair some retro disco campery) and the fact that the three day extravaganza takes place at Abbey Road Studios.

Now there's a thought. If only Paul, Ringo and co had been dressed in finest Kilgour suits rather than nasty flares while crossing the zebra crossing on their eponymous album cover. They might have even been allowed to join in.

ALSO IN STYLE & DESIGN

  • Nike 1948 Launch Photos

    Tucked away at the end of a sidestreet off Curtain Road, Nike's new sportswear concept store in Shoreditch is an absolute diamond of design.

  • Exclusive UJ offer-15% off Orlebar Brown Swimwear

    We may not get the whole of August off like the rest of Europe (grr), but one solution might be to sport stylish swimming shorts at our desks (ladies should tread with caution before rocking up in a bikini). Well, at least we can pretend.

  • Adam Beaumont-Brown’s Dos and Donts for Mens Swim Shorts

    Swimsuit shopping. Not the most inspiring pastime. But if you know what things will help instead of hinder your shape, it could go down a lot better. Below are Adam Beaumont-Brown’s (of cult menswear swimshorts label Orlebar Brown) top tips for men’s swimwear.

  • Slum Lords

    They’re hardly the height of glamour, and the merest mention of M&S, John Lewis and Debenhams sends shivers down your spine, but where else (and this is why your mum loved them) can you do anywhere near as much one-stop–shopping?

  • Dover Street Market's Interior Revamp

    One of UJ's favourites, DSM , totally revamping their interiors for the new collections; fashion's a speedy business these days, and we got inside the store to bring you photos of the brand new spaces.
