Let's Party: NGV Fashion for Kids

  • Free
  • Family and kids

It’s party time and everyone’s invited!

Step into a vibrant world of colour, creativity and celebration with the NGV’s children’s summer exhibition! Let’s Party: NGV Fashion for Kids is inspired by parties, dancing and the sparkle of decorations.

Clothing is a powerful form of self-expression – especially for kids. In this dynamic setting, young visitors can enjoy hands-on, party-inspired activities. They’ll have the chance to create show-stopping styles perfect for a celebration.

Featuring spectacular garments from the NGV’s fashion and textiles collection, this immersive experience is designed by Danielle Brustman, one of Australia’s leading contemporary designers. From spectacular evening dresses to bold, imaginative outfits and playful accessories, the exhibition showcases the work of celebrated designers, milliners and creatives from around the world.

Let your imagination take centre stage. The party starts here!
