Hussein Chalayan is one of the major figures in the contemporary fashion world, his name synonymous with wacky conceptualism, technological wizardry and unparalleled innovativity.

His best known pieces include, in S/S 08, a dress featuring over 200 moving lasers, and, in A/W 07, another dress covered in Swarovski crystals and over 15,000 flickering LEDs.

The British/Turkish Cypriot designer was British Designer of the Year in 1999 and 2000, made an MBE in 2006, appointed creative director of Puma in 2008 and now, in 2009, has a major exhibition dedicated to his career at the Design Museum.

Pretty much essential viewing for anyone with even a passing interest in fashion.

Until 17.05.09
