29.Sep.2009 Dazed & Confused-Frankenfashion
Exclusively commissioned by Dazed & Confused and featured as part of onedotzero and Dazed’s Fashion in Film program at the BFI, Frankenfashion is being screened alongside the works of Chris Cunningham, Solve Sundsbo & Saam Farahmand. In his contribution, Turvey takes inspiration from the mythical Dr Frankenstein who took parts from different bodies to make a new being. Here, a macabre sequence of events sees fashion follow suit, leading to a surreal and transformational climax.
Featuring Wigs and Hair by the Sensational Charlie Le Mindu, Props by MADE and clothes by Nathan Jenden, Rupert Sanderson, Hannah Marshall, Louise Goldin & Manjit Deu.
Track ‘Swimming’ by Benjamin John Power of Fuck Buttons.
Frankenfashion is currently touring worldwide with onedotzero as part of the Dazed – Fashion in Film.
