IT’S REIGNING MEN

Creations from the world’s most iconic menswear designers will be coming to NSW as part of an exhibition from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Secured by the NSW Government through Destination NSW, Minister for Tourism and Major Events Adam Marshall and Minister for the Arts Don Harwin, announced Reigning Men: Fashion in Menswear 1715 – 2017, will open exclusively in Australia at Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum in May.

The exhibition will feature over 130 garments, from extravagant silks worn by 18th-century aristocrats to contemporary clothes created by designers including Tom Ford, Gucci, Armani, Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Giorgio Jean Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton and Yves Saint Laurent.

Mr Harwin said, “Securing this exhibition exclusively for Sydney showcases the city as a dynamic and leading global fashion destination.”

Reigning Men is estimated to generate more than $1.3 million in overnight visitor expenditure for NSW and will be presented at the Powerhouse Museum from 12 May to 14 October 2018.
