12 SEPTEMBER – 1 NOVEMBER 2015

An exhibition of fashion and accessories drawn from the Darnell Collection – a world-renowned, private collection of international couture and Ready-to-Wear spanning three centuries. Nature has long been fashion’s muse.
Creatives in the industry have celebrated her beauty in diverse and unique ways from full impact embellishment to subtle incorporation in weaves, from organic shapes and silhouettes to fabulous textiles that echo nature’s sublime nuances in a myriad of patterns, colours and styles. Each garment and accessory has been selected to reflect the diversity of flora and fauna. Themed, jewel-like vignettes, extolling the beauty of nature, show six categories: Lace; Embroidery; Embellishment; Printed; Textured Textiles; and Natural Dyeing.
