Fashion and Textile Museum

I hope to go soon.

The next one is Ozzy Clark and Celia Birtwell or Ozzy Clark plus Celia Birtwell at the Fashion and Textile Museum.

It delves into the life and work of the legendary fashion designer Ozzy Clark, but highlighting the role of his lifelong collaborator and wife, Celia Bertuol.

The exhibition is based on the works in a private collection from both artists, and it brings them together spanning their entire career.

So basically their early work until the latest fashion collections by Ossie Clark.

It shows how Celia Bertuol's design aesthetic that was inspired mostly on Art Deco and Ballet Rose came and kind of gave a different light to the more rock and roll and strict pattern cutting aesthetics of Clarke.

Exhibitions at the Fashion and Textile Museum I find to be kind of a hit or miss.

They are very, very diverse, not just in topics, but also in, let's say, quality of the exhibition or more like quality of the results of the exhibition, especially because they work with a lot of different guest curators.
