	Description:		Writer Lou Stoppard explores the relationship between music and high fashion, with French sound designer Michel Gaubert. Gaubert has been central to many of the big moments in high fashion over the past 40 years, but he is not a designer or a model, and not particularly known to the public. Instead, he is a DJ who is often named by insiders as one of the most influential people in the business. After being sacked from a Parisian record shop in his youth, he was asked by a regular customer, Karl Lagerfeld, the late head of Chanel, to pick out some music for the catwalk. So he started this unusual career creating the soundtrack for haute couture. Lou follows Michel as he prepares for Paris Fashion Week.
