This is a stupendous exhibition and well worth the £17.50 entry fee.
Just as McQueen has a vast capacity for imagining so the curator has excelled herself in
presenting the master’s work dramatically and cleverly. Every metre of the walk-about display is inspiring; breath-taking. It’s a treasure chest in the dark. It’s like looking at the Crown Jewels in the Tower.
From tribal and primitive to tartan and ethereal images, from jewel-encrusted platform boots to wispy feathers, rags and lace, from geometric helmets and masks to naked bottoms and pubic hair in a dark wonderland with relevant music we shuffle around the solid manifestation of a designer’s crazy visions and weird mannequins.
There is much to love and gold to stun.
