Fashion Statements at BFI Southbank

Join Fashion in Film and Mouth That Roars to celebrate the culmination of a filmmaking project enabling young people from East London to explore how they express themselves through fashion and what pressures they are faced with to conform to a certain look. Mouth That Roars gives, often misrepresented, London youth a chance to learn how to articulate their opinions and experiences through video production.

Project Manager: Denise Rose, Mouth That Roars; Coordinator: Cathy John.

MEDIATHEQUE - Brit Chic

May 2008
BFI Southbank

Celebrate 60 years of cutting-edge couture with a kaleidoscopic trip down the catwalks of post-war British fashion.

Attention darlings! To coincide with the 2nd Fashion in Film Festival, the Mediatheque is launching its very own Spring/Summer Collection for 2008. Brit Chic brings together a bevy of snappy numbers, including the best TV profiles of key British designers and rare documentary footage in sumptuous colour. From utility to utopia, kaftans to counter-culture, this collection explores the dreams and devotion of the artists who have heightened our sartorial senses since the late 1940s.

Expect plenty of VIP appearances (Norman Hartnell to Ossie Clark; Zandra Rhodes to Vivienne Westwood; Mary Quant to John Galliano); what’s more, everyone’s invited, and there’ll be no quarrelling over who gets a front-row seat.
