Fashioning Masculinities

The Art of Menswear

The first major V&A exhibition to celebrate the power, artistry and diversity of masculine attire and appearance, the exhibition traces how menswear has been fashioned and refashioned over the centuries, and how designers, tailors and artists – and their clients and sitters – have constructed and performed masculinity, and unpicked it at the seams.
