This pre-visit guide has information about the exhibition spaces and immersive rooms to support your accessible visit.
A large room with mannequins on stands and suspended. The room has high ceilings, and cream coloured fabric is draped down dividing the room. In the centre of the room is a large cream fabric dome, like a petticoat hoop which is lit from within. Pop music plays.
A large room with a central runway with a series of mannequins. A digital screen at the end of the room plays runway footage, and has mirrors on either side. On the left-hand and right-hand sides of room are design elements using angled walls to create enclosed areas that you can see into, each with a different wallpaper and fashion item.
A large room divided into segments with the central path in the shape of an X. Each segment uses a different colour in the wall background, with fashion items on mannequins in front. There are bench seats inside the X.
A small room with a video on display and seats. The walls and ceiling are black and there is low light.
A large room with black walls, ceiling and carpet. There is low light. Twelve circular grey plinths on the floor each have a fashion item displayed above either standing or hanging.
The exit to the room and the exhibition is at the far end of the room. The space between each circle is accessible for wheelchair users.
This map shows areas of the exhibition layout including seating and audio-visual stimuli to help you prepare for your visit.
Music plays throughout. Gallery spaces are air-conditioned and are between 20 and 24 degrees Celsius. The map on the following page shows the locations of audio-visual content, sensory elements and seating, and can help you prepare for your visit.
