Penny Martin
For the first time in four years, the SHOWstudio Picture Phone journeyed to Paris Haute Couture Week, to document the unconstrained aesthetic ambition, extraordinary luxury and fastidious workmanship of the most exclusive end of the fashion industry. Sent directly from the opulent venues, taxis en route to the shows and after les defilés, Penny Martin captured the magic of the most outrageously imaginative and decadent of fashion weeks.
For London, Milan and Paris fashion weeks SS’08, Henry Holland and Agyness Deyn gallantly take up the challenge of bearing the SHOWstudio picture phone. The British designer and model who have known each other since childhood juggle a busy schedule of shows and parties in almost a month of live fashion coverage.
