Couture Live Panel Discussions
SHOWstudio's collections coverage wouldn't be complete without a live panel discussion or two! The couture shows are well underway and we've already had stimulating and engaging panel discussions around Dior, Chanel, and Bouchra Jarrar with panelists such as The Sunday Times Style's Richard Gray, curator Judith Clarke and LOVE editor Alex Fury. The soft pink, antique-dressed studio is set to host further debates about how couture, with its lengthy heritage and tradition, will evolve. Look out for live panels on Jean Paul Gaultier, Valentino and Maison Martin Margiela.

Menswear Live Panel Discussions
With the Milan menswear season over, on demand footage of our live panels is now available. Chaired by the wonderful Colin McDowell, panelists have included editor Alex Fury, designer Carlo Brandelli and stylist Zoe Bedeaux, amongst many more. Controversial discussion reviewed Milan's ability to present innovative design and also provided heated debate on specific designers such as Prada, Calvin Klein Collection and Jil Sander. Review all the discussions now and check in as SHOWstudio continues its menswear coverage with live panels focusing on Paris collections.

— Show Reports
Milan
SHOWstudio's associate editor, Lou Stoppard, has covered the Milan menswear shows to provide critical show reports. Reviews traverse the way masculinity has been interpreted and the balance between concept and marketability in each show. In her coverage, Stoppard identifies collections that have rehashed signature pieces instead of presenting new ideas and Umit Benan, Dolce e Gabbana, Versace and Emporio Armani are just some reports to look out for. Make sure to keep up with author of 'Modern Menswear', Hywel Davies as he dispenses coverage during Paris menswear with his informed and experienced perspective.

— HOOD BY AIR
Matthew Williams / Shayne Oliver / A$AP Rocky
'HOOD BY AIR' is Matthew Williams' latest fashion film for New York underground fashion brand, Hood by Air. HBA founder and designer, Shayne Oliver is renowned for his distinctive ranges and his Spring/Summer 2013 collection is no exception. The kilts, tanks and cropped tops are complemented here by a reverberating soundtrack by A$AP Rocky and stellar styling by Tom Guinness. This fashion film presents a striking visual assault while challenging the familiar intersections of war, sports, guns and clothing in contemporary culture.
