Started in 1963, Dress of the Year collection aims to showcase the creativity of top fashion names in the last 50 years. Each year, the Fashion Museum asks a different fashion expert to choose an ensemble from the international fashion collections that they feel is the most exciting, or directional, or simply sums up the year in fashion.
Some of the featured pieces in the collection include a 1963 Mary Quant grey wool dress and cream chiffon blouse as well as a 2013 pink dress with gaffer tape, shoes designed by Christopher Kane. (PB)
