Handbags and Bangles, 1964
Fur Hats, 1964










Foale and Tuffin, MADE IN ENGLAND, exhibition at the Fashion and Textiles Museum.

Tuffins coursework from the Royal college of art. 59-61









The exhibition i intended to go to at the Fashion and Textiles Museum was one celebrating the work of 60's fashion innovators Marion Foale and Sally Tuffin. Two women who were dettermined not to be stuck working in dress factories or replicating couture dresses, the pair embraced british culture in an era of creativity and evergy to produce clothes wich have a huge influence on what we wear today and captured a very special time in Britich history!


Prints.



More of Jacqueline's prints

Jacqueline Groag, Textile and Pattern Design.












I Took a trip off to the Fashion and Textiles museum, and found out whilst there, that they had a small showing of the work of textile designer Jacqueline Groag so i had a look.




LACOSTE pop up store.











Walking through Covent Garden i noticed that LACOSTE had set up an inflatable pop up store to celebrate the history of their brand, so i took a look inside!
To my delight there was not only a shop inside but also a white room which projected images from Lacoste's archives all around it!
