Tim Walker's Wonderland


How beautiful is the photography of Tim Walker? I love the escapism and fantastical nature of his work; its all very frivilous but absolutely stunning. His exhibition, Tim Walker - Pictures showcases at the Design museum until the 28th of September. http://www.designmuseum.org/exhibitions/2008/timwalker

And it seems that high street favourite Topshop have also been inspired by Walker's playful photography; their Autumn/Winter 08 collection Wonderland mixes harlequin prints, colourful sequins and pretty tulle prom dresses for an altogether otherworldly, fairytale inspired look (Wonderland is a very apt name for the collection, you wouldn't look out of place at the Mad Hatter's tea party in some of these creations!) I can't wait to get my hands on the gorgeous blue sequinned prom dress!
