Channel 4 has commissioned a new fashion and music entertainment series for T4, it was announced today.
Frock Me, from newly-launched production company Superbox, will be hosted by Alexa Chung and fashion designer Henry Holland. Billed as a "fast-paced, spontaneous magazine", it will examine a youth culture trend in each of its seven 45-minute shows with the help of celebrity guests and bands. It will air on T4 in the autumn.
"This is a dream first commission for Superbox and we’re very excited to have the most
wanted duo in fashion fronting the series," the company said in a statement.
Superbox is a partnership between Kate Brown (Big Brother, Secret Millionaire), Sean Murphy (Pimp My Ride UK, Totally Boyband), and Jules Wilson (Smart, What Not To Wear). The triumvirate first collaborated on Wanted for Channel 4 in 1996.
