So last night Tim and I went to the opening of the new fashion and photography exhibition at the NGV. Here are some pics – I wish I’d taken some of the fabulously dressed people though! You should have seen Richard Nylon in his two toned lace up stiletto boots or Fashion Hayley in her bold black and white striped dress: but the social photographers will hopefully make up for it. We’re so lucky in Melbourne to have so many brilliant creative dressers. In the meantime, here are some frocks and coats.
If these don’t convince you to see it post haste, you just don’t appreciate fine fashions sufficiently. It’s on until March 2nd.
Also, don’t forget my talk at the NGV tomorrow on Deco fashions – it’s free and also speaking are William A Ewing on the history of fashion photography and Todd Brandow on photography.
That turquoise fur trimmed ensemble is phenomenal! Sighhh I really miss NGV fashion exhibitions…thankyou for sharing!
Isn’t it amazing? It’s a monkey fur capelet with matching muff – just incredible. I love the colour.
Capn – you’re going to see the Aurelia Costarella retrospective at the Art Gallery of WA I trust? Now I’m envious of you as I’d love to see it but it’s sure to be finished by the time of my next Perth visit.
[…] is a pic I took of some glorious ’20s coats: more Deco fashion loveliness can be found here. Hope to see you […]
