Gavin Bond: Being There delves into the photographer’s archive, showcasing countless notorious fashion ‘moments’. Bond rediscovered this extensive collection of images during lockdown 2020; they took him back to when he was a young fashion student at the prestigious Central Saint Martins. In 1988, Bond enrolled at CSM, alongside notable alumni John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Hussein Chalayan, Giles Deacon and legendary stylist Katie Grand. As a fashion student, Bond was invited to attend London Fashion Week, it was here that he got unfettered access to dive head first, with his camera, into the wild world of backstage fashion shows.
