Fashion V Sport Exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum

By Jay • Aug 24th, 2008

The intersection between the world of sport and clothing trends is explored in a current exhibition at the Victoria and Albert museum in London.

From the website:

This exhibition explores the creative connections between the two worlds of fashion and sport. Recent developments have seen an increasing number of collaborations and hybrids, from fashion designers producing collections with sportswear brands to sports personalities heading fashion campaigns or even designing their own collections. Fashion V Sport will reveal the complexities and tensions between the two industries.

Some themes explored: the tracksuit and its emergence as a wardrobe staple, sports wear as casual wear, men’s football gear, street styles, and high-tech clothing.

Not to be missed if you find yourself in London between August 5th and January 4th.
