Experience Westwood | Kawakubo, a world-premiere blockbuster exhibition that pairs two global icons of the fashion world, Vivienne Westwood and Rei Kawakubo.
NGV stays open late for Members to privately view this world-premiere exhibition celebrating two of fashion’s most influential designers, two career trajectories, and a whole lot of radical convention-defining creativity.
Spanning from the mid-1970s to the present day, the exhibition features more than 140 innovative and ground-breaking designs, archival materials, runway footage and more from both the NGV collection and significant international loans.
Presented thematically, Westwood | Kawakubo explores the convergences and divergences of these two self-taught rebels of the fashion world, and consider the multiple ways that Westwood and Kawakubo have each rewritten fashion conventions over the course of their careers.
