Bonington Gallery are delighted to be dedicating the final Vitrines instalment of their 2024/25 season to archive material, information and clothing that documents the dynamism of the independent fashion scene of Nottingham in the 1980s. Free and open to all.
Head to Bonington Gallery to explore their latest Vitrines exhibition. Nottingham Subcultural Fashion in the 1980s celebrates and establishes a legacy for this important period within the city’s [sub]cultural history.
An open call for materials will run in the lead-up and during the exhibition, allowing anyone to submit related materials that will join an evolving noticeboard. A selection of garments by contemporary designers practising locally will be presented as part of this exhibition, showing the continuation of dynamic fashion practice in the city and region.
This exhibition runs alongside Weird Hope Engines in our main gallery space.
