Mary Quant’s Fashion Revolution
A V&A exhibition touring the world
Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki
Temporary, Dec 2021 – Mar 2022
‘This V&A touring exhibition explores the work of legendary fashion designer and icon Mary Quant. Through over 120 garments, as well as accessories, cosmetics, sketches and photographs, it looks at how she harnessed the youthful spirit of the sixties and embraced new mass production techniques to create a look for modern women of the era.’
I was the 2D designer for this exhibition, tasked with designing all the graphic aspects. This project included everything from typesetting text on knee-heigh object labels, to designing striking wall graphics over 3 metres high. The bold colours and patterns of Mary Quant was on display with the latter, using all her former work as visual reference.
