This week marks the launch of Iain R. Webb's new book As Seen in BLITZ: Fashioning '80s Style. The ICA is celebrating the event with a series of talks and film screenings.

Webb's monograph focuses on the lasting influence of the style and culture bible, which emerged amongst the new wave of independent publications in London during the early 1980s like i-D and The Face.

In a worl

d of New Romantics, a hedonistic nightlife and post-punk fashion, BLITZ explored ideas of transformation, beauty, glamour and sex through its imagery and featured legendary contributors such as Leigh Bowery, Nick Knight, Bodymap, Katharine Hamnett, Vivienne Westwood and Andrew Logan.

Relive the best of the 80s this weekend by checking out the publication and visiting the ICA.
