That is 1 of 5 movies that take you on a private curator tour of our exhibition Kimono: Kyoto to Catwalk.
Captured because the museum was closing its doorways for some time, curator Anna Jackson guides you thru the exhibition areas, offering a private perception into the making of the present, star reveals and the fascinating historical past of the kimono. Generally perceived as conventional, timeless and unchanging, Kimono: Kyoto to Catwalk counters this conception, presenting the garment as a dynamic and always evolving icon of trend.
The exhibition reveals the sartorial, aesthetic and social significance of kimono from the 1660s to immediately, each in Japan and the remaining of the world.
