Dress by David Fielden.
So much to love about this editorial, but I was delighted to spot the Jane Kahn ‘Kahniverous’ dress below – mainly because I have it in both black and white. Yes, yes, I know…

Short sleeved pale lilac sweater by Beckol from Chelsea Girl. Silvery-grey cotton pedal pushers by Antony Price from Che Guevara. Red, white and blue tartan shoes from Zapata. Wide red elasticated belt by Otto Glantz.
Alright, your curves are generous, and your behind is big, but hooray! This is the look for you. We’re back to the era of pneumatic sweater girls, when clothes fitted like the skin of a peach, waists were pulled in with firm wide belts and everyone teetered on high, high heels. Now it’s all camped up with bright plastic jewellery, headscarves and colourful wooly sox (Twiggy-types will just have to resort to falsies and push up bras ‘cos, baby, it’s our turn now!)
Intriguingly, after all that copy about curves, the model is credited as wearing a padded bra with plastic air-filled falsies by Berlei…

Charles Jourdan advert photographed by Guy Bourdin.

If you haven’t had the chance already, please make sure you get to see the Bourdin exhibition at Somerset House. It is a gorgeous, huge and perfectly curated insight into his talent. Apparently he submitted hundreds of photographs to Jourdan over the years and, whilst they are the bulk of the exhibition, it also barely scratches the surface of his output.
If you can find this Emmanuelle Khanh bra anywhere else in London, we’ll buy it for you.
