Always Forever Now: Selfridges Opens "The Forever Shop"

It cannot be denied that the fashion world is one of fleeting passions--remember those boots you loved so dearly last year but wouldn't dream of wearing this season? Or those "statement jeans" that now live a quiet, mournful existence at the back of your closet? Fashion is a business of come-and-go.

The room will be curated by the department store's creative director Alannah Weston, Elle Decoration Editor-In-Chief Michelle Ogundehin, and British designer Sir Paul Smith.
