Do you consider yourself to be a fashion connoisseur with a keen eye for the latest and historical fashion items and trends? Then you will not want to miss out on what the Museum of Brisbane has to offer.

Join designers Pamela Easton and Lydia Pearson, textile conservator Louise McCullagh and the Museum’s Collections and Curatorial Manager Kathryn King to dissect the design, construction and conservation of garments from the Easton Pearson Archive.

Featuring favourite garments selected by the designers, this event will reveal the life story of each piece from sketches, fabric swatches, manufacture, construction, fleeting public life on the catwalk and the meticulous process of archiving and conserving.
