Full-Frontal-Fashion

Feeling in bit of an internet fashion slump this week, I was more than pleased when I stumbled across the Sundance Channel's newest endeavor Full Frontal Fashion. Beginning as a television program in 2000, the original program focused on New York Fashion Week, highlighting designers by replaying runway shows and quick interviews with the designers, editors, and celebrities following the shows. Full Frontal Fashion has now been transformed from television to web and was officially launched on September 9.

"Welcome to the all new FULL FRONTAL FASHION - your gateway to the world of contemporary fashion. Meet the designers, influencers, artists and trends at the forefront of international style and glamor. With our exclusive interviews, programming, features, exhibitions, fashion documentaries and photography, FULL FRONTAL FASHION provides you with a unique, multi-media exploration of the craft, creativity and passion of the most authentic artists working in and around the world of fashion today.

Full Frontal Fashion - it's fresh fashion culture all year long! Log On. Tune In. Buckle Up!"

I think what will set this site apart from the rest is its attention to the art of fashion and the art fashion can create though video. With just a quick browse I could immediately tell that this is going to be one of my new daily reads...and just in time for fashion week!
