Our trip to the V&A went really well yesterday – even with the threat of terrible weather.  Eight of us ventured out and had a brilliant day.  We went to the “Kimono – Kyoto to Catwalk” Exhibition.  A couple of photos below.

This was the first day of Europe’s first major exhibition on the kimono.  It presented garments from the past (from 1660) and also as a dynamic and constantly evolving icon of fashion, with many modern designers take on it – including John Galliano!  See Galliano’s outfit in photos.
