Alexandra Shulman: Clothes and Other Things That Matter
Alexandra will be exploring the meaning of clothes and how we wear them looking at items of clothing that range from the little black dress to the white shirt, red shoes to the bustier, and the Chanel jacket and the bikini. Taking pieces of clothing and examining their role in both her own life and women's lives in general, she will explore issues such as climbing the career ladder, motherhood, romance, fame, celebrity, nostalgia, sexual identity, ambition, power and body image.
