Susannah Heron / Bodyworks / 1980


For those of you that don't know, Heron made perspex jewellery in the 70s and early 80s, rather like a new wave Tatty Devine, and it's pretty amazing stuff. Stocked by Swanky modes amongst others at the time and now somewhat forgotten.

Guy Debord / Memoires


Brilliant full facsimile (minus sandpaper cover) of this legendary piece of situ detournement.

Tim Walker Pictures


Looking at Cecil Beaton's Scrapbook the other week reminded me of this- Tim Walker's Pictures. It's an easy one to get and it is brilliant! (it's also massive) It is more scrapbook-ish than a showcase of editorials, but there are quite a few, so it's a good one for the familiar or the uninitiated. Tip!
