This is another exhibition that I am very late to write about, but again, I can’t not talk about this designer. Mary Quant could be seen to have revolutionised and sexualised fashion for young girls of the 60s. This was a really exciting exhibition for me as it showed me the starting points of fashions…

Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams
I know I am a little late in writing this post about the Dior exhibition, a year in fact! But, I could not not write a post about how gorgeous this exhibition was! The Dior brand was started in 1947 and the exhibition is a good retrospect of all of their previous designs. The exhibition…
Thread Counts at WOMAD
We stumbled across this group at WOMAD festival in August. This group is based in Stroud and provides classes for children in order for them to focus and concentrate on something creative; this usually has calming effects on children. The initiative of this group is actually something I believe in strongly as I am thinking…
Balenciaga at the V&A
Balenciaga is a Spanish fashion designer who emerged in the 1930s. This new exhibition at the V&A shows Balenciaga’s progression in fashions as well as how other people have been inspired by his designs. His designs can be seen to be very classic with a modern twist. This can be seen in the dress below…
Pink Floyd: Their Mortal Remains
This is a very worthwhile exhibition to visit. I visited this exhibition with my friends who are not very keen of cultural exhibitions and they both enjoyed it very much. As you enter into the exhibition you get given a headset which is programmed to turn on at certain points in the exhibition. This is…

Regents University Fashion Show
This was my first ever fashion show and I tell you it didn’t disappointment. We visited this fashion show as a result of a girl at school winning a competition. This was a fantastic opportunity to see the type of work as a result of the Regents fashion course. The fashion show took place in…
New Designers
This was my first experience of New Designers. Our Textiles group went in order to gain some inspiration for our projects and it really helped me to improve my presentational techniques. There are also a couple of courses, other than Textiles, that were presenting at the exhibition such as Ceramics and Jewellery. If you do not…
Hockney
This is one of the best exhibitions I have seen. David Hockney’s work is currently displayed in the Tate Britain and is a really popular exhibition, so I suggest you go and see it before it ends. His work is relevant to my topic of architecture as his collection called A Bigger Photography collages images of…
