CELEBRATING FASHION Talbot Runhof in Paris
Augsburg ( D ) >17.04.2026 - 25.10.2026
AUF DEN CATWALKS IN PARIS 2006–2019
Die beiden Münchner Modeschöpfer Johnny Talbot und Adrian Runhof gehören zu den wenigen deutschen Designern, die mit ihren Kreationen mehr als zwei Dutzend Male auf der Pariser Fashion Week präsent waren. Gefeiert vor den Augen der Weltpresse machten ihre 25 Shows deutlich, wofür ihre beeindruckenden Entwürfe stehen: Opulente Eleganz, handwerkliche Präzision und die Kunst, besondere Momente sichtbar zu machen.
MODE, DIE DAS LEBEN FEIERT
Feste schaffen Freiräume jenseits des Alltags – Räume für Sinnlichkeit, Emotion und Gemeinschaft. Genau diese Atmosphäre übersetzen Talbot Runhof in ihre Mode. Ihre Kreationen laden dazu ein, Schönheit zu erleben, Individualität und Selbstbewusstsein auszudrücken und das Leben zu feiern.
DIE ÄSTHETIK DES BESONDEREN AUGENBLICKS
Raffinierte Draperien, außergewöhnliche Silhouetten, kraftvolle Farben, Schwarz-Weiß- Optiken, florale oder grafische Muster: Die Designs des Duos formen den Körper und eröffnen »good times« für alle, die sie tragen. Jedes Kleid macht aus einem Anlass ein Ereignis.
INSPIRATION und HALTUNG
Musik, Film, Kunst, gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen und inspirierende Persönlichkeiten fließen in die Arbeiten von Talbot Runhof ein. Die Haltung ist klar: offen, empathisch und verantwortungsbewusst. Das Designerduo feiert Vielfalt und hinterfragt Konventionen – ohne moralischen Zeigefinger, aber mit Stil.
DIE AUSSTELLUNG IM TIM
Mit Celebrating Fashion zeigt das tim die erste museale Retrospektive zur Couture von Talbot Runhof. Die Schau beleuchtet ihre kreativen Quellen, ihre unverwechselbare Designsprache und die besondere Rolle, die ihre Mode in der internationalen Fashionlandschaft spielt. Tauchen Sie ein in eine opulente Ausstellung und eine inspirierende Feier der Eleganz. Erleben Sie, was Hollywood-Diva Mae West meinte, als sie sagte: „Zuviel von einer guten Sache kann wundervoll sein!“

Art she crafted
Rotterdam ( NL) > 26.01.2026 - 27.09.2026
Art She Crafted presents and celebrates the ways women around the world, from ancient times to the present, have shaped art and culture. Their names are often absent from dominant art history. This exhibition brings to light the vital role women have played across all eras and continents in the development of artistic and cultural movements. It demonstrates their structural contributions to periods of cultural flourishing. In doing so, class also becomes evident: not all women had equal access to artistic opportunities or resources.
Guest curator Rajae El Mouhandiz selected dozens of stories, from paintings and manuscripts to textiles, fashion, design, photography, and installations. They reveal how women, despite structural exclusion, have always played an essential role as creators, patrons, collectors, donors, and innovators. The exhibition Art She Crafted invites visitors to rediscover art history through the eyes of women.
From textiles, embroidery, and ceramics to contemporary fashion, art, and photography, Art She Crafted reveals how women have shaped art and culture throughout the centuries. From queens to activists, from independent artists to collectors, women have played a vital role at every level of artistic development.
The exhibition takes a broad and inclusive look at art history. It explores who was able to create, for whom, and under what conditions. Visitors are invited to discover a richer, more diverse, and more truthful understanding of art and culture through the eyes of women.

In Shape
Den Bosch ( NL ) 07.02.2026 -14.06.2026
At a time when fitness routines, beauty filters and cosmetic procedures are ubiquitous, the body seems to have become something that is manufacturable and improveable. The body is no longer a given, but more and more a project. We work on it, knead and correct it to meet an ideal that is often unreachable.
That search for the ideal body is not new. For centuries we have been using all kinds of means to change our contours and adapt them to the prevailing beauty image. While the fashion kings and queens determined the silhouette, it was the underwear that actually shaped the body. Corsets strapped into the waist, bustles enlarged the buttocks, bras flattened the bosom or lifted it up, and briefs and belts made everything smooth.
In the exhibition In Shape, the body is central as a field where design, fashion and social norms intersect, and we show the role that underwear has played in it. The exhibition shows how we have shaped our bodies over the centuries, not only with textiles and technique, but also by power, identity and desires. Using underwear for different areas of focus such as shoulders, chest, waist, buttocks and hips, legs and cross, we show how attention shifted over time and what means were used for this.
Sometimes it is about forming the body about power and discipline, sometimes about temptation and consumption, often about both at the same time. Women's bodies, men's bodies, and all the bodies in between are treated differently in this process, but constantly touch each other in visual culture, fashion and desire. The exhibition In Shape makes it visible that design not only shapes our clothing, but also our bodies and challenges visitors to think about the strength, temptation and the risks of that manufacturability.

NIGO: from Japan with Love
London ( GB ) 01.05.2026 - 04.10.2026
From the back streets of Harajuku, Tokyo, to the global stage, this is the first-ever museum retrospective and exhibition outside of Japan that will chart the career and life of the Japanese creative director, NIGO, one of the first creatives to bridge the worlds of streetwear and luxury fashion. Over a 30-year career, NIGO has helped define some of the most influential trends in contemporary fashion, successfully crossing fashion, music, architecture and interior design.
Open from 1 May 2026, this landmark exhibition will feature over 700 objects, with highlights including a recreation of NIGO’s teenage bedroom, rare designs, ceramics hand-thrown by NIGO himself, and a life-size glass tea house made especially for the exhibition. His work draws on influences spanning vintage Americana, streetwear, hip-hop, traditional Japanese craft and growing up in 1980s Tokyo.
Working across street style, fashion, music, and more, NIGO has been behind some of the most influential designs, ideas and trends in recent streetwear and fashion history. From founding his first fashion brand, A Bathing Ape, in the ‘90s to his current role as artistic director of KENZO, his impact remains as wide-reaching and relevant as ever.
The exhibition will give visitors a glimpse into NIGO’s world, from his personal collection of vintage clothing and objects to his close network of collaborators, and showcase his practice and ability to draw on wide-ranging disciplines and cultural references, which have given rise to some of the most iconic brands.

Fashion in the 18th Century. A Fantasized Legacy
Paris ( F ) 14.03.2026 - 12.07.2026
The Palais Galliera is hosting an exhibition titled Fashion in the 18th Century. A Fantasized Legacy that looks at the characteristics of women’s fashion during the Age of Enlightenment and its numerous reinterpretations throughout fashion history up until the present day. Often perceived as a distant, even dusty epoch, the eighteenth century nevertheless constitutes a major stage in the evolution of the female appearance that continues to influence the world of fashion and popular culture today.

Revealing the feminine Fashion and Appearances in the 18th Century
Paris ( F ) > 25.03.2026 - 20.09.2026
Portraits, gallant scenes and historical textile pieces dialogue to explore the diversity of representations of femininity as they unfold in the stagings of the eighteenth century. The exhibition highlights the rise of a French style whose elegance then seduces European courses and aristocracy, revealing a history of the costume both rooted in a material reality and nourished by the imaginary.
At the heart of this time, France is the unavoidable theatre of refinement and prestige. Artists such as Maurice Quentin de La Tour, Jean-Marc Nattier, Adelaide Labille-Guiard, or Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun excellent to translate the brilliance of fabrics like the depth of souls, offering their models an aura of grace and power.
The course of the exhibition, which highlights these virtuoso works, is enriched with portraits marked by a new psychological dimension, where intimacy and the natural take a central place, under English influence. In parallel, the pastoral care of François Boucher and the gallant feasts of Antoine Watteau shape an idealized and poetic femininity.
Finally, contemporary photographs by Steven Meisel, Esther Ségal, or Valérie Belin, as well as a creation Chanel by Karl Lagerfeld, suggest in counterpoint a reflection on the persistence of codes and the legacy of the eighteenth century in the current fashion, between social and imaginary requirement of beauty.

Vivienne Westwood - Rebel - Storyteller - Visionary
Newgate ( GB )) > 28.03.2026 - 06.09.2026
A multi-gallery exhibition honouring one of fashion’s most provocative and imaginative British designers, Vivienne Westwood (1941-2022). Spanning the early 1980s to 2000s, the show charts Westwood’s extraordinary journey following the rebellious energy of punk from her early partnership with Malcolm McLaren (1946–2010), to her reinvention of historical dress and couture in the 1980s and ’90s.
Featuring many pieces from rarely seen private collections, Vivienne Westwood: Rebel – Storyteller – Visionary offers an unprecedented glimpse into Westwood’s artistry, one that defied convention and challenged the fashion world. Uncover the making of Westwood’s work through mock-up calico toiles and digitally deconstructed garments, alongside complete ensembles that unfold chronologically, paired with historic objects from The Bowes Museum’s own collection.
Following the museum’s success of A Collector’s Story: A Private Collection of Vivienne Westwood (2023 – 2024) and Framing Fashion: Art and Inspiration from a Private Collection of Vivienne Westwood (2024 – 2025), this is The Bowes Museum’s most ambitious Westwood exhibition to date — a new and exclusive fusion of rebellion with tradition.
This exhibition is the result of a collaboration between The Bowes Museum, Peter Smithson and other private collectors. It is not an institutional partnership with the Vivienne Westwood brand.
