Out and About: Valentino's video
Fancy a taste of fashion week but don't see yourself blagging a front row piece of the action? Then check out UJs pick of the best exhibitions, installations and happenings in the capital in honour of LFW. Catwalks are like, so mainstream, darling.
Valentino's Videos
Valentino may have retired from the industry, but he's hardly resting on his laurels. The Red Thread: The Inspiration and Passion of Valentino Garavani at The Hospital Club is the first in Samsung's Imagination Icon Series, and portrays the legendary designer's life, career and legacy through the latest Samsung techy bits; think HDTVs and camcorders showing collection footage and scenes from the upcoming film Valentino: The Last Emperor, alongside original couture gowns and sketch prints of his designs. Not sure we're ready for that tan in HD.
The Hospital Club : 14th-19th September, 12pm-9pm • 24 Endell Street, WC2H 9HQ
Admission is free.
