HIGH TALENT ✏️ LOW EGO ✏️. Today is the LAST DAY to apply for the D&AD Shift London cohort.

A free, award-winning, industry-led NIGHT SCHOOL creating alternative routes into the creative industry **no degree needed** 👀

This photo is from the 2026 portfolio reviews at the beautiful @anomaly offices. I’m always blown away by the Shift team, the spaces they create, the talent in the room and what happens when access is opened up properly.

📣 You’ve got until 12pm to apply. Don’t worry about perfection, as Senior programme manager, Sara Pintado says “Show how your brain works. Your voice over polished answers. You don’t need it all figured out.”

Meeting the Mayor of London @sadiq @mayorofldn🎖️ (April 2026)

I love this city 🏙️, I grew up sitting in its museums and galleries for hours, returning to the same pieces again and again, to just sit and exist with work that inspired me to look and discover something new on each visit. That feeling has stayed with me.

@vam_east, London’s newest museum is seven years in the making, and officially opens this weekend. Built with the community it belongs to in East London in mind, and it feels full of possibility. It challenges what a modern museum can be, who it is for, and how to make art more accessible.

I learned at the opening that they didn’t just loosely “listen” to young people. They actively involved them through a structured group, the V&A East Youth Collective, acting as an advisory voice in shaping the museum. I’m excited to see how it continues to evolve.

Here’s some photos from the surreal preview night 🖼️. Filled with unexpected reunions, and BIG love ♥️ to my talented pal @sahra_hersi whose selected works we are standing in front of in the picture! What a brilliant night, from meeting Sadiq Khan to standing above the Olympic Park taking it all in, it felt expansive.

📝 Note: V&A East Storehouse is a separate space (to V&A East) and honestly something special on its own. If you have time, make a day of it and visit both. They’re in Stratford, about a 10–15 minute walk apart. ✨

Honoured to have played a small contribution to this stunning campaign for PARCO, one of Japan’s leading department stores. All credit to @kinbykin for being an absolute one of a kind visionary.

Moved by Kin’s words below:

“For many years, long before I ever became a photographer, PARCO was already an artistic reference for me. Its iconic campaign visuals from the 90s shaped how I understood fashion imagery, the work of Eiko Ishioka has lived on my reference boards for as long as I can remember. So many photographers I deeply admire have created unforgettable images for PARCO. I never imagined I would one day be part of that lineage.

And yet, here we are.

My first PARCO campaign film, creatively directed and shot by me, made with a team I truly love and trust.

Thank you to everyone who brought this to life, and thank you @parco_official for the trust.

@parco_shibuya_official”

Manon Cezaro’s painterly brushstrokes became a travelling ribbon moving through the new issue of @belmond’s Mondes Magazine. In the redesign, we built anchoring points of continuity through each feature, both in the structured typographic openers but wanted something that complimented the spacious edit of bold, beautiful photography.

I was thrilled to commission artwork that is both artful and confident—distinctive in style and a vibrant thread of celebration and joy.

Featured here, Manon’s evocative brushstrokes bring a sense of movement that complements Belmond’s storied hotels worldwide, many beside UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The artwork maps a journey through MEXICO, TURKEY, ENGLAND, ITALY, and PERU, each destination “a portal to the past, where ancient wonders meet timeless design.”

Jonathan Anderson at his East London desk in 2014.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In prepping for some portfolio reviews for young students, I recently found myself deep in my own archives. It felt apt to share this earlier career throwback in celebration of @jonathan.anderson’s new role as Creative Director @dior and today’s menswear show.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This image was originally part of a feature for ELLE Collections, where fashion’s leading voices shared career advice with the next generation. The concept was simple: capture Creative Directors (Fashion) at their studio desks, offering a window into their world, almost like they were speaking directly to you across the table. Each interview ran as a one pager, revealing quick and powerful takeaway feedback.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s a refreshingly honest take from his earlier days @jwanderson @loewe:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“You have to wear blinkers when working in the fashion industry. [Laughs] If you’re going to do it seriously, you can’t get involved in it, if that makes sense. You have to do the work, then leave. As long as everything is in moderation, you’re fine. It’s when you exceed the moderation levels on anything that you lose your direction.”
— Jonathan Anderson, 14 November 2014, ELLE Collections

Very excited to share that I worked on the REDESIGN of @Belmond’s publication Mondes, now available across their iconic hotels, trains, boats, and safari lodges worldwide 🌍✨

The magazine was printed and launched in Milan during Salone del Mobile 2025, one of the world’s most renowned design fairs 🇮🇹, when the city is filled with pop-up exhibitions, installations, and inspiring moments across art, architecture, and interiors. Here are a few glimpses from the magazine’s debut at the Belmond AirMail kiosk in Milan 🎨🏛️

More on the project, the talented Belmond team (thank you Blue, Jonathan, Bre, Karine), the great Mark Leeds, and the brilliant contribs coming soon...
