Each season, Electric sekki has the distinct honour of being invited to the Chalayan show and, each season, it is the highlight of all of our trip there. Hussein Chalayan is one of the last remaining truly innovative, boundary-pushing designers working today; he never fails to amaze us with the beauty and creativity of his work. The Electric sekki team is also incredibly fortunate enough to have backstage access to the show each season and, we have to say, as far as backstage atmospheres at fashion weeks go, Chalayan's is a calm, super well-oiled machine! See how the magic happens backstage at Chalayan's Fall/Winter 2013 Paris Fashion Week show.
Backsage passes! That's just how we roll...

The show line-up. So exciting!
Last-minute touches on this incredible 3D textured 'wall peel' dress.

Shoes, glorious shoes!
If you're curious, this is what the crazy photographer pit looks like at a show. Everyone fighting for the best space!
