V&A


The V&A are having an exhibition called 'Club to Catwalk', which is where we get to experience fashion trends in the 80's and it will be showcasing new and adventurous looks by young new designers, including Betty Jackson.

It will be showing and telling about the famous London club scene, as that was a major cause for young people to dress up more and try new trends. And that was what influenced the new designers back then to create things that the young generation wanted.
It then took to the catwalks, even around the world, all because of the new influences from the London club scene. John Galliano had recalled, "Thursday and Friday nights at St Martins, the college was absolutely deserted, everyone has at home working on their costumes for the weekend". This also brings but the DIY phase that was in the 80's.
