Anna Wintour, Bloomsbury Group fashion. Sofi Jeannin of BBC Singers.

Anna Wintour on Vogue World; Charlie Porter and Erdem Moralıoğlu on the Bloomsbury Group's fashion; Sofi Jeannin, conductor of the BBC Singers.

Dame Anna Wintour, Global Editorial Director of Vogue, tells Samira Ahmed about Vogue World, the magazine’s fashion and performance spectacular which makes its UK debut this month at the start of London Fashion Week.

You may know the early 1900s Bloomsbury Group for its art and philosophy, but the collective was also in the vanguard of sartorial revolution. In the studio to discuss its impact on fashion are writer Charlie Porter, author of Bring No Clothes: Bloomsbury and the Philosophy of Fashion, and British-Turkish fashion designer Erdem Moralıoğlu. 

The Swedish-French conductor of the BBC Singers, Sofi Jeannin, joins Samira to discuss the choir's range, reputation and morale after a period of uncertainty over its future.

Presenter: Samira Ahmed
Producer: Paul Waters
