The Spectacle of Fashion

In the 1920s Barkers department store Kensington, London, was a monument to Art Deco design and radical new thinking about retail as entertainment for the leisure classes.

The exhibition and talk will tell the story about Barkers use of the 1920s super models who seduced customers, wearing Paris haute couture featuring brands such as Chanel.

You can book your free ticket for the event taking place on 17 January 2019 at Kensington Library here. The talk taking place on 29 January at Chelsea Library is now fully booked.
