Fashion exhibitions are always difficult, especially exhibitions of contemporary fashion. Quite often photos of the collection can be viewed online and sometimes even a video of the catwalk show, so you can see how the clothes move. If you want to see the actual clothes you can just walk into Harvey Nichols, the Galeries Lafayette or any other high end department store or of course the designer's own boutique if he or she has one. So what added value does an exhibition have?
