Otago Museum’s Fashion Fwd: Disruption through Design is a celebration of fabulous frocks and beautiful couture and the voices of fashion disruptors.

Fashion is, at its best, a creative fist raised and railing against convention. It is a critique of society, a protest of inequality and injustice, and, for those the world mutes, a means to take thoughts and whispers to a wild and fabulous shout. It is an agent of change; our beliefs, our identity, and our hopes for the shape of the world described in tulle, and silk, and wool.

The exhibition has been designed in-house, with a swathe of local and international collaborators, from iD Emerging Designer finalists since inception and from around the world, Dunedin’s top designers and selected items from Otago Museum’s vast textile collection; fusing the lines between historical and current innovative narratives. This fashion is brazen, chic and defiant.

Join us in a wild shout to the world dressed in fabulousness.

27 March – 17 October | Only at Otago Museum
