Fashion and Textile Museum: Blog

London's Fashion and Textile Museum prides itself as "the only museum in the UK dedicated to showcasing contemporary fashion and textile design." Founded in 2003, the museum is home to a variety of exhibitions and events. Though the museum is currently closed, with plans to open soon (subject to COVID-19 guidelines), the organization added virtual elements in March 2020 to keep everyone fashionable from afar. The blog is a rich source of fashion news and history, and also serves as a space to highlight exhibition items. For example, readers can learn about the history of t-shirts as a canvas for personal and political expression (see the February 24, 2020 entry), view some iconic outfits worn by Princess Diana (September 4, 2020), and download templates and activities to step into the shoes of a designer (April 30, 2020). Other digital tours and learning guides are available for a small fee (booking options are listed on the Home page). Readers will also find the museum on Twitter (@FashionTextile), Instagram (@fashiontextilemuseum), and Facebook (same as previous handle).
