Great Names of Fashion

Dior and Balenciaga, Vionnet and Yves Saint Laurent - the history of modern fashion is signposted by a handful of major fashion designers whose work shaped the look of a generation. A new display at the Fashion Museum will showcase beautiful evening dresses by a number of these great names of fashion history from the early 20th century to the present day. From the jewelled key motifs on Elsa Schiaparelli’s (1890 – 1973) powder blue evening dress to the strapless gown with a skirt made of metres of knife-pleated white silk organdie by Christian Dior (1905 - 1957), this display is a must see for all those who are fascinated by the history of 20th century fashion.
