Do you often get teased about your ridiculously large bag collection? Well, prepare to rub this in everybody’s faces: bags are important, says the V&A who is staging a whole exhibition about the accessory. From luggage to boxes, rucksacks to handbags, the V&A will explore the history of the bag with a showcase of 300 bag-related items and artefacts dating from the 16th century onwards. Now scheduled to open in September 2020.
Alexander McQueen has been a fashion house synonymous with trailblazing design and extraordinary flights of the imagination since its inception. The rose-themed exhibition at the flagship McQueen store explores the brand’s lasting connection with flower symbolism through spectacular pieces from collections past and present. The swirling red rose dress, the finale for A/W19, is a centrepiece, as is the Sarabande dress, created by Lee McQueen for summer 2007, which was once filled with fresh flowers. Open now at Alexander McQueen, 27 Old Bond Street, London – the store is temporarily closed.
It was the mid 60s, and a small number of Chelsea boutiques reigned supreme, sparking a fashion revolution which, along with popular music, fuelled the cesspool of creativity and experimentation that came to define the decade. See fantastical pieces worn by the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix in this exhibition, which features rare pieces from the iconic stores and designers like Ossie Clark, Biba and Thea Porter. 3 July – 4 October 2020 – the Fashion and Textile Museum is temporarily closed until further notice.
You won’t want to miss this one: the first major exhibition dedicated to the iconic fashion house at the Design Museum is likely to be the talk of the town. Showcasing some of the brand’s iconic pieces, it offers visitors a look into Prada’s creative approach, inspirations and landmark collaborations (most recently with Adidas). Future-focused while paying homage to the house’s rich history, the exhibition explores the idea of front and back – the surface of fashion and the creative and industrial infrastructure it is backed by. Opens September 2020
An entire exhibition dedicated to the kimono? We’re officially intrigued.

Opened 29 February – 21 June 2020
See Simon Procter’s Lagerfeld: The Chanel Shows come to life at the Four Seasons Hotel London at Ten Trinity Square in a spectacular retrospective of works dedicated to the iconic designer. Read the full story here . Four Seasons Hotel London at Ten Trinity Square will be temporarily closed until April 15.
Shoephoria! – Closed Until Further Notice
As 2020 marks the Year of the Shoe at the Fashion Museum Bath, it seems only fitting that the gallery hosts an exhibition dedicated to all things footwear. Launching this March, Shoephoria! will showcase a 100-piece collection of pairs of shoes and boots, exploring the fascinating history of shoemaking. From 17th Century red velvet mules to a pair of Russian boots worn by artist and aristocrat Lady Ottoline Morrell, the unique exhibition will take spectators on a journey through time, from footwear designed for royalty to modern-day Converse and Nikes. Due to open 28 March 2020
