Ahead of and tying in nicely with Mary Quant (at the V&A from 6th April 2019), Swinging London: A Lifestyle Revolution presents the fashion, design and art of the Chelsea Set. At the forefront of this group of young revolutionaries were Terence Conran and, the queen of the minis herself, Mary Quant. The Fashion & Textile Museum exhibition presents this group of radical young architects, designers, photographers and artists who were redefining the concept of youth and challenging the established order in 1950s London. Through fashion, textiles, furniture, lighting, homewares, ceramics and ephemera, the exhibition explores not only the style but the socioeconomic importance of this transformative period, from 1952 to 1977.
