NEW YORK, N.Y (NOVEMBER 17, 2011) - The Creators Project, an ongoing global cultural and technology initiative by VICE and Intel, today presents exclusive, behind-the-scenes footage of the world-acclaimed fashion mogul Hussein Chalayan’s September fashion show, complete with hidden cameras and champagne drinking models.

For his Spring/Summer 2012 Paris presentation, British fashion designer Hussein Chalayan, in collaboration with The Creators Project, sent his models down the runway holding champagne flutes rigged to tiny secret cameras. As the models drank their beverages while donning the latest in Chalayan’s fashion line, each muse’s mouth and throat were projected onto a large screen behind the catwalk. The secret, hidden cameras created a visual experience for the models, guests, and wig-wearing Chayalan, like they had never seen before.
