| Founded in 2003 by fashion designer Zandra Rhodes, this small museum of contemporary fashion and textiles mounts two or three special exhibitions each year. The designer has cited the success of her 1999 San Diego exhibition ‘Fashion Is’ as germane to the museum’s inspiration as a forum for the display, study and practice of contemporary garment design. The centre showcases a programme of changing exhibitions exploring elements of fashion, textile and jewellery as well as courses for creative students and businesses. | |
