Lost London photos by Ken Russell

Written by Tania Braukämper.

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.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
