Swanfield on Tour is moving down Carnaby Street to 1.2 Kingly Court W1
from Monday the 14th of September.
Cecilia Hammarborg’s new collection “Black River Falls” will launch at London Fashion Week as part of Topshop’s new EDIT designer range for Autumn/Winter 09-10.
You can beat the crowds by purchasing Hammarborg’s collection from Swanfield on Tour, her cooperative pop-up boutique.
“Made in London, the ultimate fusion of classic tailoring and carefully constructed shapes, combined with modern design detailing using quality Italian fabrics; glamour and luxury are mixed to perfection with functionality.
A visual paradox is illustrated where shapes are voluminous and floaty, while sculpted detailing from Victorian menswear accentuates a flattering form in pointed fish tail cuts. Military button details are also offset with feminine puffed sleeves and sharply waisted cuts with full skirts.
Black River Falls by Cecilia Hammarborg proves outerwear can be just as titillating as what lies beneath.”
Cecilia Hammarborg’s covetable range of accessories, including silk scarves with logo gunbird print, can also be found at the new YMC store on Poland Street, and Beyond The Valley off Carnaby St. For those not in that part of London town, other stockists include No-One Boutique in Shoreditch. Collection also available from www.ceciliahammarborg.com

100 Girls On Cheap Paper + The Passengers
Gallery Hanahou is celebrating the release of Tina Berning’s new edition of her sold out classic book ’100 girls on cheap paper’. At the same time the gallery is presenting the second solo show of the renowned artist in New York: ‘The Passengers’. ‘This body of works has its origins in Tina Berning’s 2009 solo exhibition in Munich titled ‘The Listeners.’ The works from that show have grown and evolved as they travel to New York, becoming ‘The Passengers’.
With ‘The Passengers’ Tina Berning continues to explore the relationships between conditioned aesthetics and supposed subjective ambition in the canon of contemporary visuals. The drawings formulate the artist’s own images of the human body, its inadequacy and its fundamental relation to self-determination. Tina Berning releases figures out of their heteronomous, medial contexts and shifts them into an interplay between voyeurism and exhibitionism. She uses her paintings and drawings as carriers to extricate subjects from the contemporary alienated incapacitation. Codes and matrices blanket faces, streaks of colour lie like shadows over the delicate silhouettes. Interventions that follow Tina Berning’s study to open the plainness of shemes into the ambiguity of expression. She makes subtle corrections to the standard, uniform face and figure, enabling a look of physical expressiveness to return. Even when they appear fragile and vulnerable, the faces and images of the people take on a form that is more resistive.
gallery hanahou is delighted to welcome you to the exhibition opening on Thursday, September 10th, 2009 at 6 p.m.
gallery hanahou will also host a talk with the artist open to the public on Saturday, September 12th, at 2 p.m.

A global initiative set up by Vogue editors across the world, the Fashion’s Night Out sees brands coming together for a night of fashion shows, workshops, champagne and late-night shopping.
“As part of a bold global initiative, the international editions of VOGUE are partnering with designers, department stores, high-street chains and boutiques to create Fashion’s Night Out, an evening extravaganza to be held around the world on Thursday, September 10, 2009, from 6pm until midnight. Here, in London’s West End, we aim to lift shopping spirits and to emphasise the pleasure and joy of fashion. London is home to some of the world’s most celebrated designers and is a number one shopping destination internationally – Fashion’s Night Out will reinforce this.
The VOGUE team will be working with retailers to create a night of original in-store activities, including personal appearances, makeovers and workshops, during extended shopping hours.
VOGUE has designed a limited-edition T-shirt for sale on the night, with 100 per cent of money raised going to Crisis, the UK charity for the homeless.”
