Exhibition in an exclusive Canadian showing
As of September 25
Africa Fashion
From the turn of the 1960s to today, the exhibition features fashion and accessories, jewellery, textiles, photographs, music and art that together bear witness to both the foundational role that textiles, clothing and body adornment have played in African cultures, and how fashion became a powerful force for post-colonial self-expression, drawing international attention for its limitless creativity, just like Africa itself.
Created by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London – touring the world.
