90bythe90’s

9th May to 15th July
A subversive project exploring the curation of archival and contemporary subculture collectables.
90 by the 90s is a Luxury Fashion and socio-cultural brand, through which students will develop contemporary models of digital exhibitions. At the heart of the project is a private collection of 90s Vivienne Westwood, consisting of over 100 pieces. Students will get the opportunity to work under the helm of Asiya Durrani-McCann (Luxury brand specialist).
