Africa Fashion

Africa Fashion is the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of fashion from the African continent ever mounted in Australia – presenting a dynamic survey of historical and contemporary designs from some of the most influential fashion designers in the region.

Coming to Melbourne from the Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A) in London, the Australian premiere of Africa Fashion features nearly 200 works, including couture, bespoke and ready-to-wear fashions, and body adornments, from over 50 designers from more than 20 countries and regions on the African continent.

The exhibition celebrates the creativity, innovation and indelible global impact of African fashions from the mid-twentieth century to the present day. The exhibition reveals a thriving and dynamic fashion culture that is as diverse and varied as the continent itself.

Joint Africa Fashion and Pharaoh tickets available for $10 extra.
