We are Very Loving the new Silver Sixties window display at Selfridges.

No doubt intended to cash in on the upcoming Factory Girl-fever (we’re with Mr Dylan on the film — as regular readers on BST will know), Selfridges have excelled themselves with beeeeooootiful silver sixties style windows. We particularly love how our shitty new camera phone has whited-everything out even more to make it look Even More Shiny.

What Goes On

THINGS TO SEE & DO TODAY

The House of Viktor and Rolf
- "...lives up to its name. The exhibition is dominated by a gigantic doll house, a graceful structure with Palladian proportions where miniature versions of 15 years of fashion fill the series of rooms on three levels."

Psycho Buildings
- "Specially commissioned work transforming The Hayward into a 'psycho building'" Good stuff.

From Atoms to Patterns
- "This exhibition explores the intriguing creations of the Festival Pattern Group - a unique project at the 1951 Festival of Britain involving X-ray crystallographers, designers and manufacturers. At the instigation of Dr Helen Megaw, a leading Cambridge scientist, diagrams of atomic structures inspired an eclectic array of patterns on curtains, wallpapers, carpets, lace, dress fabrics, ties, plates and ashtrays."
