STANDING GROUND'S SS25 SHOW WAS A SCULPTURAL, TEXTURAL DREAM

Rather like the Neolith­ic mono­liths that Michael Stewart’s Stand­ing Ground draws inspi­ra­tion from, his lat­est col­lec­tion was strong, sub­stan­tial and seem­ing­ly tran­scen­dent.

Renowned for his exquis­ite and rig­or­ous crafts­man­ship, the Irish design­er had just become the inau­gur­al recip­i­ent of LVMH’s Savoir-Faire Prize before stag­ing his debut SS25 stand­alone show in Lon­don last September. 
The most fer­vent of fash­ion­istas couldn’t help but gaze in a...

MILLINER STEPHEN JONES OBE IS HONOURED IN A NEW EXHIBITION IN PARIS

With a new exhibition in Paris, renowned British milliner Stephen Jones speaks to Mission about his illustrious career.

“Oh mon chapeau!” exclaims Jones when asked to describe his upcoming exhibition, Chapeau d’Artiste. The British milliner has, indisputably, been at the zenith of the international hat-making industry for over four decades now, an accomplishment which more than merits a showing devoted to his idiosyncratic creations. Housed by Paris’ Palais Galliera, it is their first exhibition which has honed in on hats since 1984, and what better way to break this standstill than to honor the...
