Absolutely Nothing To Talk About : Kate Davis-Macleod, Fashion Photographer

ANTW talks to Kate Davis-Macleod, the brilliant Fashion Photographer who has shot the likes of Karen Elson and David Tandy. She took a break from a hectic London Fashion Week to share all sorts of inspiring things about Absolutely Nothing…..

Absolutely Nothing To See…..

What with fashion weeks in full swing, I’ve been pretty focused on Style.com for all the latest shows, very impressed with Victoria Beckham’s first proper catwalk show in NY, and her diffusion line was gorgeous. Loved the pink and turquoise colour in Roksandas Ilincic’s show and want practically every dress from Peter Piloto.  Giles‘ show was spectacular, like watching a Ballet. Can’t wait to see what Milan & Paris bring….

Absolutely Nothing To Read…..

When God Was Rabbit by Sarah Winman

Absolutely Nothing To Wear…..

This very cool gold chain / harness from Miss Selfridge. Only £14.99! I love how it completely transforms a simple black dress or top.

Absolutely Nothing To Watch…..

Mad Men Season 4. I also loved The Guardian’s shoot with Christina Hendricks in last weekend’s magazine, she looked amazing. If you want to dress like Mad Men then Banana Republic’s current collection is totally Mad Men inspired.

Absolutely Nothing To Eat or Cook…..

I’m slightly obsessed with Japanese food and have taught myself how to cook some of my favourites, such as Nobu Black Cod –  just add sake, miso, mirin & sugar, super easy to make yourself, a fraction of the price.  I have also been trying replicate a Japanese carrot & ginger dressing I used to live off in NY, I even feigned an allergic reaction once to try to get the ingredients from the chef! The closest I’ve found is Gwyneth Paltrow’s Carrot Detox Dressing on her Goop website – add honey though.

Absolutely Nothing To Buy…..

Ok, in my dreams!! A YSL cashmere cape… Or a pair of Tabitha Simmons Winklepicker black buckle boots – although Underground England has a pretty good copy!

Absolutely Nothing To Smile About…..

My son, always.
