He may have been a self-confessed "disaster" when it came to formal fashion photography, but there is none the less much inspiration to be drawn from Ken Russel's lost London photographs. Taken in earlier part of the 1950s, the photos are striking, quirky and unmistakably English.

The exhibition Ken Russell's Lost London Rediscovered: 1951-1957 is at Proud Central, London WC2 until August 21, 2007.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
