Reconstruction

de Vivienne Westwood, Alison Moloney

This exhibition catalogue celebrates the work of seven leading UK fashion designers: Hussein Chalayan; Peter Jensen; Sophia Kokosalaki; Marios Schwab; Paul Smith; Vivienne Westwood; Osman Yousefzada. It reveals a shared approach, involving a skilful distillation of elements of their respective pasts - either personal moments or a collective cultural heritage - to create contemporary garments with narrative.
